Trump in Ireland

AIBU to think that the only less-than-drone-like behaviour we've seen from Melania was when she met the Irish prime minister? She genuinely looked happy to meet him - has she met him before?

Also, Trump analogising the Irish border with the Mexican border and the Irish prime minister interjecting with 'what we don't want is a wall and a border'. I genuinely smiled at that. Maybe Melania likes him as he's willing to stand up to Trump! Grin

Nice arse too. Like two eggs in a hanky!

The Mexican border bit where Leo interrupted really was priceless. Will see if I can find a clip.

I think trump thought there was a wall in the north or going to be one! 😁

Leo is a fine man. ❤

Did you see the Gardaí Twitter page asking nearby farmers to please respect the president and not spray silage or anything like that near where he'll be. All it was missing was wink wink, nudge nudge, go on, we've given you the idea now after it.

I wouldn't be surprised, they are pretty hacked off at having all leave and rest days cancelled at short to look after the great orange buffoon. This on top of the cost of the whole operation when we are told there's no budget for other things.

Trump does not care enough about Ireland to even bother to read his brief.

Fandorafannyfarter · 05/06/2019 20:17

I have a newfound appreciation for the muscles in Leo's eyes. Mine would have rolled to the back of my head then out of my arse listening to Trumps utter crap.

ElspethFlashman · 05/06/2019 20:28

Apparently DT really wanted the press conference to be at his resort, but Leo said "Fucked if I'm going there, he can meet me at the fucking airport"

Or words to that effect. Grin

Count your blessings. He's headed back here shortly.

Fandorafannyfarter · 05/06/2019 20:38

And his departure will be widely celebrated.

Leo did look like he had been in the sun over the weekend. Bit cremated on the face.

Orla, even if Leo weren't Gay he'd still be extremely right wing!.

He is not "extremely right wing".
Ireland doesn't have a mainstream right wing politician. Varadkar is socially liberal and economically conservative, at most he's right of centre.

Orla, Leo and Melania and pen pals Grin - though we don't know what they talk about.

"The note to Ms Trump is just one in a series of correspondence between Mr Varadkar and the White House that will remain confidential."

Also, if you think Leo is good looking, check out his partner. He's the better looking one Grin
