AnGaelach wrote: » None of that makes sense whatsoever. They already repatriate money out of Ireland to places like the Caymans. That money is no longer in Ireland, and that money is what he wants back in the country. Trump doesn't care about 6000 people in Cork, he cares about the $200bn sitting in the Bahamas that could support 5 times as many people in the US. Trump isn't going to go on a crusade against little old Ireland, it simply isn't worth the political capital it would cost.

He might want the money, that might be difficult to get, but he can go after the root cause and turn the tap off by forcing the US multi-nationals home with huge taxes. We'll see what he does. But realistically, this is what the American's voted for, pulling up the oars and believing that Donald will deliver some sort of self preservation. He rightly doesn't care about thousands of people in other countries, he does care about thousands of jobs he can force back to the US that can be returned to disillusioned unemployed people there.

Like myself, i go over for a week every 5-6 months to see family ( that are legallly there). I have been doing that the last 10 years without any hinderance whatsoever. Will it be made harder? Will he remove pre clearance from irish airports?

It's not that he's going after, he's trying to lure back the $200bn sitting in Apple's bank accounts that's in the Bahamas. Stop regurgitating mistruths you've heard, that's not going to happen.
