Box helps Jordan's King at press conference with Trump

Some out-side-the-box thinking helped Jordan's King Abdullah II look as tall as the US President Donald Trump during their joint press conference in the White House Rose Garden on Wednesday.

The 6'2" U.S. president and 5'5" Abdullah II discussed serious matters, including a chemical weapons attack in Syria this week, but some journalists' focus was placed squarely on the box.

"Bring me the royal box!" the chief editor of Washington Examiner Dave Brown posted on his Twitter page.

"Diplomacy reaches new heights: Jordan's King Abdullah II stands on a box for press conference with Trump," HWDRepublican wrote.
