the prime minister of Ireland, as we'd say in Gaelic, the Taoiseach, Michail Martin, he was, uh, invited to the white house on the 12th of March, but the guy that Trump chose to actually have there on Patrick's day itself was of course, Conor McGregor.

And McGregor has kind of started, he's become God-pilled and he started rambling on about, um, you know, rosary beads and the power of Christ and all this kind of stuff.

It's wild. There's absolutely no resemblance. Like what Connor puts across, there's no resemblance to what's actually happening in Ireland. Like he starts ranting about how the police are so corrupt. Element of that's true. But he starts talking about how the traffic core, the road cops who give you like speeding tickets and stuff, they're the most violent and repressive and all this kind of stuff.
