CSPAN


Conor McGregor is spending his St. Patrick’s Day at the White House. Last week, President Trump spoke about his love for McGregor while speaking to Ireland’s Taoiseach, Michael Martin.

“I do happen to like your fighter. He’s got the best tattoos I’ve ever seen. Conor’s great… Ireland’s always had a lot of good fighters—you know why, because they’re tough people.”

On Monday, McGregor made his way to the White House a week after Trump’s comments about.

During his visit, McGregor began answering questions from the press and trashed the Irish government.

“Our government abandoned the voices of the people of Ireland. Our money is being spent overseas on issues that have nothing to do with the Irish people. It’s time the people in America are made aware of what’s going on Ireland, what is going on Ireland is a travesty. Our government is a government with zero action and zero accountability”

The UFC superstar told the media that he had hoped Trump would help the people of Ireland.

“Ireland and America, we are siblings. It’s important for Ireland to be a peaceful and prosperous country for 40 million Irish Americans to have a place to visit, to come home. We wish for our relationship with the U.S. to continue. The U.S. should look after its little bro.”
