So Trump is headed for Ireland?

He put out a statement that he is headed for Ireland to check on his ill fated golf courses.

Why doesn’t the State Department revoke his passport so he can’t return to the states? He is a domestic terrorist, he tried to overturn an election and they should deem him a threat to our democracy!

the royal family. He's likely feeling burned that NOBODY is talking about whether or not he is going. Actually he's discussed very little in regards to anything not involving a court case these days.

According to the Associated Press, more than 27,000 people showed up to Biden's speech—more than double the town's population. Videos online show Biden walk onto the stage, flanked by both the Irish and American flag, to festive traditional Irish music.
Eat your heart out MoFo😀😀😀

Do you think any of us would be allowed to leave the country if we were just indicted on 34 felony counts?

Do you think we could leave if we were under investigation for espionage and sedition?

And is very strict in prohibiting their introduction. They're about to allow a far worse fauna to come ashore.

Because, fortunately, we have legal system where you're presumed innocent until proven guilty in a Court of Law, not on the internet.

Donald Trump to build his wall in Ireland amid climate change 'irony' claims

The US President had sought approval for a lengthy sea barrier to protect his golf course at Doonbeg in County Clare from Atlantic storms.

The local authority has told Trump International Golf Links (TGIL) that it can construct two sea defences of 630 metres and 260 metres in length.
...
Protesters were quick to highlight the irony of a president, who is sceptical about climate change, building a wall in an attempt to manage coastal erosion.

The original application cited global warming and rising seas as justification for the wall.
