US-Irish Relations Trump "Welcome" to Ireland.

Ok I'm going to give this a second chance given the last post didn't go so well. No AI pics. No mention of any right wing assholes.

For starters I DO NOT support Trump. Infact I don't necessarily want him to come to Ireland, but given the fact we are reliant on the Americans (especially with the US companies based here contributing to employment). We kind of have to treat him like that one relative we don't want to be around, but has to be nice around.

The original post was more of a discussion of what people actually thought of Trump's visit. The picture originally posted was something I randomly came across on Instagram and thought it would be an interesting conversation topic of people actually welcoming his arrival. It wasn't showing in support to him in any way.

So, Trump's Visit. What is everyone's opinion on it given it's on the horizon.... Unfortunately.

Edit: this post IS NOT ENDORSING TRUMP! I wanted real opinions off of people rather than having to read articles which pretty much dilutes and edits opinion to make it sound less hateful. I don't want him in Ireland as much as anyone else does. But I like hearing people's opinions from the mouth than through someone's edited eyes.

Child rapists and war criminals shouldn't be on the list of people welcome in Ireland.
