      Are we still sending head of government over to celebrate our national day with the child raping war criminal who’s threatening Europe?

      Ministers need to grow a pair and start calling the man what he is; an international bully destroying the economic order like an over grown toddler in full tantrum mode.

      Get some balls Ireland and stop being everyone’s bitch.

      And yet come March, our Taoiseach will head to DC, fawning through rictus smiles as King Trump insults us, and his administration attempts to undermine our home & neighbours.

      We might be on the cusp of having to pay a huge price for failing to make adequate efforts to begin decoupling from the US in recent years, despite something like this having been somewhat inevitable for some time now.

      Regarding the cringey Paddy’s Day stuff, they deliberately insulted the Taoiseach last time – Trump accepted the annual tribute if the Shamrock salad bowl a few days ahead of Patrick’s Day, and then invited Conor McGregor as the Irish representative on Patrick’s Day instead.

      It’ll be a very awkward March.

      Why do we care what they think. Nobody cares what Ireland thinks. We have our own problems at home that this pair are eager to distract from.

      The Supreme Court is due to rule in June on whether these tariffs are an overreach of executive power. Two lower courts found that they were. So there is not a small possibility that after June Trump’s favourite lever of power in foreign policy will be much more constrained. He’s also facing decimation in the midterms in November.
      There’s a very real possibility by the end of this year we will have a neutered Trump in power, please god.

      I thought we were against imperialism, like Denmark claiming Greenland as their territory. Or is that just the Brits we get excited about.

      His approval rating went up this week. This stuff is going to continue so long as that’s what Americans actually want. We need to divest from US reliance.

      We can’t retreat into being isolationist subsistence farmers on the edge of Europe, we tried that and were swallowed up by bigger neighbours. The only way forward now is closer European integration, including a European army, and hope it holds together. Whatever its problems, the EU is still better than all the alternatives.

      It’s a lot more than concerning. If they get Greenland they’re coming for us next.

      I genuinely worry that they’ll be talking about „needing“ Ireland as the western flank of Europe next.
