Conor McGregor Megathread *Mod Warning in OP Updated 20th April*

He's Irish American Dana White.

I am assuming "condone" is a typo for "condemn".

He is and never calls himself Irish American but being from Boston you can probably see why he took a liking to McGregor from the very start of his career.

Are you blind or completely ignorant?

Conor McGregor getting the red carpet treatment has made Micheal Martin a laughing stock. Ruth Coppinger is absolutely right to bring it up. Conor McGregor is now seen as the true representative of Ireland, and not the Taoiseach.

Donald Trump took the absolute piss out of Ireland with that McGregor stunt and it's baffling that you seem to think otherwise.

Mod: Warned for uncivil post.

spot on. Our government had to know that McGregor was invited to the Oval Office on the actual special day, Patrick’s Day.

Like a lot of things in society, soft as sh1te. The government allowed it happen.

Trump and his psychos backing him made a laughing stock of Ireland.

Leavitt actually said “we couldn’t think of a better guest” than McGregor. Absolutely fooked up.. but the joke/sham is on us as a country that U.S. administration chose McGregor on our national day!!! Unbelievable

Would ya ever relax ffs.

Trump entertains a daily freak show of losers, has-beens, crims, sex offenders and God bothering nut jobs.

I can promise you the Irish government couldn't give two f**ks whether or not McGregor was there on Paddys Day, as long as they had a successful visit for their own agenda, as well as getting around the other traditional Washington events and their other business in Texas, New York, Illinois, Massachusetts and California.

Conor McGregor is a laughing stock and a pariah, the government here would shrug if he never returned to Ireland, but they're only too delighted to condemn him and the shite he comes out with, because it gives them a chance to condemn everyone who spouts that level of crap.

you relax with your “FFS.”

And the Irish Government are representing the people of Ireland, so they damn well should care who is in the Oval Office criticising them and attempting to speak on behalf of Ireland’s people.

More chance of the Monk being Irish president.

Whether he's too stupid or not isn't really relevant.

If he doesn't get nominated, he'll just go on Twitter and spin it as him being silenced and the establishment not letting him have a fair shot. Then, his idiot followers who don't know how the nomination system works in Ireland or what the President actually does will moan and this will be amplified by Musk et al.

I have no time for McGregor and I don't believe he's some genius political maverick who knows how to work the system; but he doesn't need to be, he just needs to have the people around him knowing what to do. Similar has already happened with Trump and Boris Johnson.
