Conor McGregor’s presidential bid: What does Ireland think?
MMA fighter Conor McGregor has publicly expressed his interest in running for the Irish presidency. While his past legal issues are well-documented, his apparent connection to the US President Donald Trump appears to have given him a boost to enter politics and McGregor is urging Irish citizens to support him. He recently met Donald Trump at the White House to celebrate St Patrick’s Day. Could McGregor get enough support to be nominated for Ireland’s Irish Presidency – and would he have the backing of the Irish public?
