McGregor says he's going to run for the presidency.
You don't need a crystal ball to know that when that doesn't happen, he'll whinge about Deep State or MSM or somebody 'preventing' him, the Chosen One of the People, from achieving his deserved status of President.
So let's put this on record how, at 20.45 on 24/03/2025:
Conor McGregor, you are perfectly free to run for the Presidency.
Like anybody else, you will have to fulfil the following:
- be a citizen of Ireland
- be at least 35 years of age
- be nominated by:
- at least twenty of the 234 serving members of the Houses of the Oireachtas, or
- at least four of the 31 county or city councils
If you can do fulfil all that, Conor McGregor, you are as free as anybody else to present yourself as a candidate and get voted into office, if that's what we the people want.
If you cannot fulfil these requirements, Conor McGregor, you can have no complaints. You were as free to stand as anyone else, and if it didn't work out, it's because people TDs and councillors don't like you as much as you like yourself; so no whinging about being prevented from running by dark forces, OK?
