    Trump is not Hitler, and by comparing him to one of the biggest evil men that ever was you are devaluing one the greatest horrors in history.

    Dial it back a bit, snowflake.

    I didn't make a comparison to Trump and Hitler, snowflake. If you go back and read the comments instead of ramming your oar in you might see the context. He is a fascist however.

    Saying mean things and being a dick head is definitely not worse than actually being responsible for people's deaths, for fúck sake. Get rid of your victim complex.

    Saying mean things? You mean being a sexist racist thug who profited from his father's mafia connections. Get over the fact that many Americans are ignorant sexist morons.

    Trump made be lots of thing, but I fail to see how you can justify that term. He's not a right winger, he's much more of a old style FDR democrat

    Just when you think Americans can't get any thicker, they elect this ****in clown as president. They will come to regret this.

    Ah, a bullet or two will solve that. We saw with Obama, that he could not do what he wanted. Same will happen to Trump. I doubt Trump believed in half the stuff that came out of his mouth.

    Nixon said some crazy stuff before he became President, and then he calmed down (Maybe not the greatest example, but....)

    Seen as though he is president now does that mean he can't put his name to buildings or businesses??

    Thought he isn't allowed use his title to promote a business. Asking in terms of Trump international links at doonbeg. Will they have to change the name.

    I can see this election outcome has truly rocked you to your core, who would ever have guessed.

    Will you be posting on Twitter about moving to Canada now?

    How could this affect irish tourists visiting over and back with the 90 day visa program? 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?

    The worst thing about all this is the faux outrage on my facebook feed. OMG he's such a wacist!!! These people wouldn't have voted in our own election.

    It's funny seeing arrogant Europeans telling Americans how they should vote.

    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.

    And nothing of what you have written there makes any sense. Sure those billons wouldn't be there if they hadn't been earned off shore and squirreled away. 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.

    Well not for much longer apparently, either The Donald will be throwing you out or you'll be moving to Canada since it's apparently that easy. :o

    If they pull their headquarters out of Ireland, they get slapped with massive taxes on trying to export into the EU anyway (which the French would LOVE to happen). 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.

    Most American Presidents profited from his "father's mafia connections" or other connections.

    Many still fall over themselves over Kennedy. How do you think Joseph Kennedy Senior made his money? Few Presidents come from humble backgrounds

    Hillary got to where she was because of who she married and how Democrats owned her big time for not pulling the plug on the Bill Clinton show when Monica story came out.

    Calm down dear, have a seat. Hillary did not loose because she was a woman. Half of the population are women over there. ;). Those corruption and email allegations and her time working in the Obama Administration killed her off.

    Trump can't be blamed for the spree of BLM etc either. Obama was all about the race card when he lectured Constitutional Law in Chicago. It is not racist to demand that a country removes ILLEGAL immigrants. Facts are, many of the culprits of crime in the US are non US people. They can not deport US citizens, but they can remove immigrants who are criminals.

    Any bets on which Irish county Trump has ancestors in. I'd say he's from Leitrim!

    I don't think he's made any mentions about it, and it's probably not that big of a thing to most Americans.

    I'll continue to believe that it is possible with Don Trump in charge. Perhaps I'll be proven wrong, but no way I'll blindly believe it'll never happen.........

    Women don't deserve to be put to death for having the cheek to get gang raped, nor do gays deserve to be publicly executed for their orientation, but Trump's opponent had no problems with receiving money from countries where that routinely happens, so I can only imagine how furious you are about that....

    And Trump will be doing exactly the same thing, but you probably already know that
