FROM COLORADO’S STATE Capitol to Trump Tower in New York and the Washington Monument, groups of hundreds of people rallied for President Donald Trump yesterday, waving “Deplorables for Trump” signs and even carrying a life-size cutout of the president.
Chelsea Thomas, an accountant from Thornton, Colorado, brought her family to the Trump rally in Denver — and the life-size cardboard cutout of Trump. She said the family has taken it with them on camping trips, boat rides and a country music festival.
“It’s nice to be surrounded by people who share your morals and opinions,” said Thomas, as her son walked back and forth across the grass with a Trump flag.
Many in the crowd held American flags or wore red, white and blue and held signs with messages like “Veterans before Refugees.”
Police in Berkeley, California, say 10 people were arrested after Trump supporters and counter-protesters clashed during a rally that turned violent and left seven people injured. None of the injured was hospitalised.
A dagger, metal pipes, bats, pieces of lumber and bricks were confiscated, police said.
Six people protesting the rally in St. Paul, Minnesota, were arrested on felony riot charges after they lit fireworks inside the Minnesota State Capitol and fled, police said. About 400 people attended the event, and about 50 showed up to protest it.
In Nashville, two people were arrested as protesters clashed with Trump supporters at the Tennessee Capitol. In Olympia, Washington, the state patrol says four demonstrators were arrested at a rally in support of Trump, KOMO-TV reported. Authorities did not say if the people arrested were pro-Trump or anti-Trump. The station reports that the demonstrators are accused of assaulting a police officer.
Near Mar-a-Lago, the Palm Beach Post reported that people on both sides exchanged profanity. Trump’s motorcade briefly stopped so he could wave at supporters.
In Ohio, Trump supporter Margaret Howe, 57, of Pataskala, said she increasingly fears civil war.
“We did not want to have something like this happen,” she said, adding,
We came out today because Trump deserves to see he still has people for him. It’s just all sad.
A group of counter protesters gathered nearby, separated from the rally by police tape. They chanted “No Trump. No KKK. No fascist USA” and held signs with messages like “Your vote was a hate crime.”
Hundreds gathered in rallies on both ends of Pennsylvania to show support for Trump.
Supporters waved signs and flags and listened to speeches during Saturday’s “Spirit of America” rally in Bensalem’s Neshaminy State Park in eastern Pennsylvania’s Bucks County. Organiser Jim Worthington said:
They love their country and they love what Donald Trump represents, which is about making America first.
In northwestern Pennsylvania, the Erie Times-News reported that about 100 people gathered at a square in downtown Erie for a similar demonstration. “We’ve got to get the whole country united behind this man,” said Richard Brozell, 75, who along with his wife braved the mid-20s temperatures and stiff wind chill to attend
In Augusta, Maine, more than 100 people turned out for the event that was supposed to last three hours, but ended early because of freezing temperatures.
In Miami, supporters continued a rally while sipping espressos outside a Cuban restaurant, the Miami Herald reported.
At a North Carolina rally, speakers said the dishonest media and left wing politicians were bordering on sedition in their opposition to the Republican president. Some men were seen walking through the Raleigh crowd carrying a Trump flag as well as a Confederate flag.
Gathered just behind the rally was a handful of protesters, some of whom blew air horns in an attempt to disrupt the event. Cherie Francis, of Cary, North Carolina said:
We’re gonna take our country back and we’re gonna establish borders and have legal immigration and law and order.
In Indianapolis, about 30 Trump supporters rallied at the Indiana Statehouse in Indianapolis to denounce what they see as unfair treatment of the Republican. A local organiser, 61-year-old Patty Collins, of Indianapolis, said Trump’s critics “aren’t giving him a chance.”
Trump supporters turned in Phoenix. Media outlets reported that several hundred people participated in the Phoenix event held on a lawn at the State Capitol.
In Texas, Austin police say about 300 people rallied in support of Trump in a gathering outside the Capitol during rain. Organiser Jennifer Drabbant said there have been so many protests against Trump that she and others wanted to show there are people who support him.
Scores of people also rallied in Virginia Beach, Virginia, in a show of support for Trump. The Virginian-Pilot reports around 200 Trump backers showed up for the event at a park. Some held American flags and others wore “Make America Great Again” hats and Trump T-shirts.
In Lansing, Michigan, about 200 Trump supporters rallied on one side of the state Capitol while 100 critics gathered on another side.
“Agree with President Trump or not, he is our president, and I think what I see happening in DC and with the Democrats — it can’t stand,” said Gary Taylor, 60.

The arrogance of Ryan thinking he speaks for the “Irish people” What a tool
Certainly not me
Absolutely – what a totally idiotic think to say…
Trump is a Doonbeg businessman. Who puts his money where his mouth is – £100s of millions recently into Trump Turnbury, with 1000s of jobs.
Im a fan of Ryan
But id rather trump instead of satans bitch.
So ill see you there eamon with my ‘Hup the Trump” sign.
It will be nice to inform the Irish diaspora in America what Trump is thought of in large over here
It matters, Tom?
In large? A handful of knobbers in anoraks with their push bikes.
Dj — Better than anonymous internet trolls.
Like yourself? fair play for admitting it. Have a lovely evening now.
why would it be nice Tom, do you think they care 2 cents worth about this little rock and what we think
America cares what the Irish think!!! Ha ha.. funny.
Anti war organisations? How many wars has he started?. Were these same crustys out protesting when Obama visited?
The same crustys were drooling all over him in moneygall. The most nauseating spectacle I’ve ever seen in my life.
Most ‘anti-war’ organisations and activists in this country are really anti-American. They don’t care that Trump hasn’t started any wars, the fact that he’s American is enough.
Well said nothing done about that eh
Same crusty people who turned up to protest shell to sea, occupy bloody dame street, irish water, n11 dual carraigeway, m3 motorway, anti-war (but only if its usa or israel) human rights abuses (but not if its China or Russia) terrorism (unless its islamic) bin charges, skyscrappers and urban sprawl (go figure) and probably would protest about having to get a job if there came a day!
Greg – a ‘right on the money’ post. And you didn’t even mention the EU, which wasn’t very helpful to is – in our hour of need!!
So Greg…….Eamon Ryan protested against Irish Water!….I never knew!
Ryan – mentioned where?
You don’t have to start wars to be a war mongerer. You could continue one or two your predecessors started. And we all know he will.
Greg, So the humdreds of thosands who boycotted the water charges ( banker tax ) are all “crusties”?
Wally, no they are the kind of people that want services but will not pay for them.
but we’ve already paid! – the stupidity of so many. we didn’t…
Tom, You mean like the wholesale tax dodgers in corporate sector who demand services but funnel billions offshore to avoid paying tax to help fund those services?
They should just let democracy do its work. I hate Enda Kenny but had to just accept him
The best way to get at Trump is to ignore him. Anything else feeds his ego.
Is there anything the AAA/PBP won’t jump on,
Anti war. I didn’t know trump was behind so many wars. Will they then also be out protesting against biden.
Isn’t trump in favour of massively scaling back US foreign policy?
Ah yer all so bleedin’ smart aren’t yiz?!
Bunch of berks. Every principled citizen will protest against the racist, homophobic, misogynist, Trump.
Green thumb me if your Pro The Donald
Stephen, You honestly think the grotesque farce playing out in the U.S is democracy at work?
…. Mr Trump
…. You Are More Than Welcome
…. You Don’t Take Any Crap
…. You Are A Breath Of Fresh Air
………………………………………………………….Vote Trump Number 111111111111111
Ciaran, We won’t jump into bed with another right wing government like the bogus Independents for their 30 pieces of silver.
For some bizarre reason Wally, I would prefer even Trump to that sinister warmonger Clinton with her Democrat smokescreen. Maybe I’m, terribly wrong!
The Green Party sat in cabinet and were part of the worst government in the history of the country.
They should protest against the pensions their member rob from the Irish tax payer each month.
Yea,but you’d protest at a raffle if yis thought it be popular
Not since his “bomb the sh|t out of them” address at a recent klan rally…..can only ass-ume he blustered ‘bomb’ anyway!
Wow Petr who calls people berks anymore, I think you are a bit of a dough boy trying to act hard behind your keyboard – guess what?? People are getting a bit fed-up of uber principled types like you dying on the cross for the rest of us.
Usual suspects. Predictable shower of tossers with too much time on their hands.
Don’t be so hard on the Journal commenters.
What a bunch of plonkers.
You and your family are a bunch of plonkers.
What an inspiring exchange.
Jesus, that Eamon Ryan is an insufferable tw@t.
That fool ryan doesnt agree with how Trump treats muslims….I dont agree with how muslims treat muslims…..
grand, so go protest about that.At least you recognise that not all muslims are treating others horribly and they themselves are being mistreated.
Because of civil wars abroad means that people from those origins shouldn’t even whinge about being discriminated against and used as a symbol for fear else were… I’ve heard that before. Makes total sense.
What wouldn’t I pay you to see you say that personally to someone with Rwandan family.
Maybe the activists from the anti-war and women’s organisations should wait until Hillary Clinton comes to visit.
How many of them are educated enough to know that Trump was against the war in Iraq while Hillary was an enthusiastic supporter.
How many of then are educated enough to know that Clinton removed Gadaffi from power and destabilisied the region even further not to mention her hand in the botched withdrawl from Iraq both of these incidents gave rise to ISIS.
How many of them are educated at all?
Pointless nonsense
It will assuage their liberal, middle-class guilt.
Where were all these clowns when the Chinese Vice President was visiting farmyards?
Mr.Trump should receive the same welcome as any other businessman or politician to this country,
Coke and blowies?
Exactly.
Making us look foolish as a country. These politicians mentioned are great at protest politics. Go implement something for the better of the country.
That’s the problem, AAA-PBP don’t ever do anything but protest. They are like the football player permanently on the sideline with “an injury” booing their own team because they don’t win and get results.
Åsshöles against anything….
We built a petrol station in honour of Obama, who is one of the people responsible for the deaths of thousands in Syria, and we are protesting at this guy! Do the honourable thing and welcome him as we would any other business man (nothing extra) and let him be on his way.
@Sideshow
Could you elaborate on how Obama is personally responsible for those deaths. And use actual examples rather than the “well if he did/didn’t do this”
Also while I don’t really care about the protestors Trump has already said he will invade Syria if he gets elected(put boots on the ground), and said nukes are the way to go. Do you think that’s the right way to go? If not then protesting against him is fair enough.
Obama’s organisation armed the FSA and still continues to arm. They handed guns to a rebel organisation in a different country which were to be used to kill people. Whether you like Assad or not, does not matter. USA administration armed rebels in another country to help them overthrow their ruler. Also, for a period, FSA pledged allegiance to IS, meaning Obama was arming his direct enemy.
It’s nothing new to them, they have been messing in other countries for years so Obama ain’t the first and won’t be the last. Still should be tried for his crimes though
I’m not going to defend America’s history of interference with countries. I think even the former leader of Mali who has recently been convicted of Human Rights violations lately(cant remember his name) was supposed to be have been helped by the CIA. Ironically the 70′s and 80′s were the worst for this kind of thing and Trumps message to “make America great again” I assume would coincide with this period? Or when is he actually saying America was great.
Anyway, the fact is the uprising of the Syrian people had already begun, and Assad was murdering them. That was happening. So left with a choice between doing nothing and trying to arm the people they thought might be the most moderate of them, a choice was made. No good choices in this kinda of war but to label him a murderer because he made that kind of choice? a bit too far for me. A lot of people on here would have also have criticised him for doing nothing.
And on Isis, the Assad regime was the one who bought the most oil off isis. So by your logic if Russia, whether they knew it or not were supporting isis through assad as a proxy
He had a choice. There is always a choice. And he chose to get involved. Granted it’s not an easy one, and people would have criticised him for doing nothing. But by becoming involved he made the web ever more intricate and got blood on his hands. I’m not saying these rebels and innocent civilians would all be alive if he did nothing, but you cannot dismiss that fact he played a major role in their death. An I am not saying that Putin is innocent either. Truth is both are the bads guys, there are no good guys and we are the victims
All great at finger pointing at US interfering in other country’s affairs but don’t seem to mind telling Americans how they should vote!
And the residents of the United Kingdom.
But for some reason we got very quiet when the Scots went to the polls
In fairness, quite a few Americans see fit to try to tell us how to correct in our referendums and spend money trying to influence the outcome.
why don’t the protest against there own government.. I hope the all get arrested along with trump..
Where have you been if you honestly think they have not protested against their own government???
As humiliating as it is to say this, I’d prefer Trump over Hillary any day. Bernie Sanders was by far the most trustworthy candidate. Trump is an arrogant tool but Hillary is much more dangerous imo.
Absolutely not. She may be arrogant and dislikeable but Trump’s rhetoric hits at amongst others invading Syria, dropping nukes, insulting other nations, demonizing an entire religion, raising coal production while denying global warming. Threatening a trade war. That’s off the top of my head. Trump is far and away a more dangerous proposition to this world. On every level
Trump opposed the war in Iraq. Hillary is a war hawk.
so how many people has Trumps retoric killed
I hope Ryan is going to cycle down, his gathering of people travelling as he suggests to meet in Clare will leave quite a carbon footprint!
So the political parties who support the lifetime jobless bums are out protesting against a guy bringing hundreds of jobs to the country. You couldn’t make it up.
very good comment , How dare a minority or Micky Mouse green gang say they speak for us all.
Diversity of opinion and engagement in principled protest is the hallmark of a liberal democracy instead of a fascist state.
Protest is a form of freedom of expression.
Peaceful Protest, Peaceful Protest, Peaceful Protest, repeat forever – worse than a funeral rosary. Freedom of expression my backside…
Leave Trump to visit. Sick of do-gooders and crusties..Trump employs a significant amount of people on the west coast. He is visiting HIS business let him be…
He employs a couple of thousand but he wants to get rid of or penalise all the American tech firms who employ many tens of thousands here
No love fr Trump,but these useless protesters,should go out and work and pay for something
Invalid inference.
I think the people who are gonna protest here are also protesting against a couple of million Americans who voted for trump. Not a very intelligent thing to do. They’d do the country a lot more service if they protects against our clowns we’ve got trying to run our country. Kennys is taoiseach on only 25 percent support. Trump is more popular than that with Americans.
How dare The Green party saying Trump is not welcome by the Irish people. The Green party they do not speak for me .I and thousands more welcome Donald Trump as a man who speaks his mind and says it as it is.
Time for the government to take off the kid gloves and deal with the usual suspects protesting no good riff raff
Trump doesn’t really say it as it is. He is a charlatan and a con artist that has suckered in the gullible and the riff raff with his empty meaningless rhetoric.
Donal get a job.
Our understaffed and overworked Gardaií have more than enough to do without having to police these demonstrations
Overtime and an easy and unchallenging public order task.
AT the taxpayer’s expense of course.
Why on earth are people protesting? He isn’t looking to be president of Ireland. His dealings with Ireland are employment and helping tourism in the country.
He also plans to create legislation that would effect Multinationals in this country. Which could severely decrease investment here
Stephen I’m sure a protest will make him more sympathetic to us on that. Yeah seriously!
Build a wall to keep the protesters out
Is there a particular reason why you feel it”s appropriate to use that name?
Equality does not equal Political Correctness.
Better organise & summon the pro-Trump welcoming crowd then…
Noonan and a leprechaun again?
It will be a bit embarrassing when he wins the Presidential election and they are crawling for American business investment and support next year.
Have we no shame.
Trump is your only man..
The liberals will be out in force yet they themselves have nothing to offer yet get offended by people who speak their mind.
Why do these professional protesters always act like they speak for our whole nation, then berate anyone who disagrees with them which is almost our whole nation.
How dare these idiots speak on behalf of “the people of Ireland”? Their paltry representation in the dail suggests the people of Ireland don’t generally agree with them..
The Green Party – PMSL
Ryan and columnist wife are Jew-Haters and Yankee-haters who thrive on stoking hate from like-minded troublesome fools who are always on the look-out for someone to project their own self-hatred onto .
Jew hating and Israel hating are two different things, but you know that. It helps your spite laden comment. Also I would look to Israel to see instances of stoking hate. You see that they wish to segregate Palestinian children and Israeli children in school now? An actual proposal from members of the Knesset.
@Stephen Coveney……..Obviously you are not a TV viewer of Palestinian kill-a-jew-programs for kids.
Here’s a sample from the Spectator.
Hamas TV teaches children to kill ‘all Jews’
Douglas Murray
Transcript (courtesy of PalWatch
Child host: “OK, so what does a policeman do?”
—-”Nahul (adult in giant bee costume): “He catches thieves, and people who make trouble.”
Child host: “And shoots Jews. Right?”
Girl: “Yes.”
Child host: “You want to be like him?”
[Girl nods]
Child host: “Allah willing, when you grow up.”
Girl: “So that I can shoot Jews.”
[Nahul the bee cheers]—”
http://blogs.spectator.co.uk/2014/05/hamas-tv-teaches-children-to-kill-all-
Child host: “All of them? All of them?”
Girl: “Yes.”
Child host: “Good.”
Obviuosly I don’t need to be.
I’ll state it one time. I think Hamas needs to be wiped off the planet. No good can come from them. Happy?
Now can you repeat one thing that Israel is doing wrong? Just one?
Illegal settlements, defending a soldier who shot an unarmed man in the head as he lay on the ground?
@Stephen Coveney…….One thing immediately comes to mind Stephen and that is Israel is too soft on Jew-stabbing losers who kill women in front of their kids in order to get their rewards in the hereafter with 72 virgins.
—”South Hebron Hills spokesman Assaf Fassy said the terrorist easily entered the home, the door of which was unlocked. He was immediately spotted by Meir and three of her children. Two of them fled, but the oldest daughter 17, remained with her mother, Fassy said.
The terrorist stabbed Meir, fatally wounding her and fled when he could not remove the knife from her body…”

How about these protesters putting their energy into sorting out our corrupt politicians and let the Americans sort out theirs. It’s all for show. Trump will love it and Irish politicians will be rubbing their hands with glee at the attention being taken off them. You silly fools of protesters falling into the trap. Mind your own business.
Can people only do one thing at a time? What are you doing to help sort out our corrupt politicians?
So let me see if I understand this correctly. Trump wants to forge a better relationship between America and Russia. Hillary meanwhile wants to create a no fly zone in Syria to potentially shoot down Russian planes in order to stop them from killing ISIS Jihadis and their allies.
Trump simply doesn’t want to allow Muslim immigration to the US due to the results from countless polls and surveys which suggest that a significant amount (not a majority, but a large enough amount to cause worry) have views which are incompatible with western democracy, but otherwise wants to leave them alone. Hillary strongly supported the war in Iraq, and has been implicated in wikileaks as being heavily involved in the regime change in Libya, and the current attempted regime change in Syria, which has resulted in the deaths of plenty of Muslims.
But Trump is the one who is going to start a war, and is the one we should protest. Yeah… sounds legit.
This guy gets it
Interesting that there will be no ‘Trump Is Welcome’ campaign,it’s clear the vast majority of Irish people have nothing but contempt for this bigot,a sign of a mature and healthy democracy.
the last bit is where, ibn?
I love him. The media and the politicians hate him but don’t be mistaken, they don’t speak for us. For every anti-trumper there is there’s nine pro-trumpers who like to keep their head down and get to work. Unlike bernie’s dead debt squad.
@taig…actually a quick straw text poll on a radio station suggested that 77% would vote for Trump. What % voted for these protesters?? Let’s face it there is nothing worthwhile in Ireland or the world to protest about, but some bloke who doesn’t play the PC line very well. Wait for all the phone clips of these “selective” protesters being “politically” policed by our brutal Gardai who are of course all in the pocket of Dennis O Brin. Tongue firmly in cheek!!
@TariqibnZiyad ” it’s clear the vast majority of Irish people have nothing but contempt for this bigot” First of all you dont know that . Tariq are you a troll ? Why i ask is why would someone from Bradford be so interested in Ireland .
Absolutely idiotic question – why? It’s his own business. Why are you unhygienic, and have to reside in Manchester? WHO CARES
Robert’s definition of a troll is someone who is interested in news from other countries,weird.
very
Ger is a valid question so calm down . Tariq can answer for himself maybe hse has an irish connection and you seem to call alot of people on this forum idiots . Maybe your the idiot ?
Donald Trump who employs hundreds of Irish citizens and contributes to the revenue is more welcome in Ireland than muslims from Bradford like Tariq here.
Proud Muslim from England, my heart is in Córdoba
https://twitter.com/tariqibnziyad71
Cordoba’s a very nice place I hear. Also the name of an Islamic Caliphate in Spain funny enough.
I never called you an idiot. And yes, maybe he has Irish connections, or not. And, perhaps, like us all – he has the right to comment?
with parish pump thinking. ‘who’s the new fella’ – in ballyblueball?
Ger. Click on his twitter page. It won’t take long.
Ger, yes he has a right to comment. No one is preventing him from doing so so relax the anti-racism reflexes and instead observe who he actually seems to be please.
Petr, not all complete strangers should actually be welcomed anywhere.
Sometimes, what looks and sounds like an Islamist supremacist is in fact an Islamist supremacist. Not a hapless victim of xenophobes.
@GER Idiotic or idiot same thing I am not trying to stop Tariq commenting on here far from it . I just am curious and Tariq can answer that one if he wants . No comments are allowed on his twitter page ?
None on mine either. Too busy. You ill?
Tariq supports ‘honour killing’.
The Journal isn’t the Irish soccer squad. You don’t have to have an Irish granny to participate.
Tariq going by your past form would the amount of contempt you generate on a daily basis from the vast majority of Irish people indicate the same healthy signs
Irish people should not protest against Donal Trump. He has made a significant investment in Doonbeg. He will bring many tourists to Ireland. He could if elected which I believe he will help Ireland and Irish immigrants get green cards for America. Be careful be wise. Be dignified if you insist on protesting !
STOP TRUMP’S IRISH WALL: http://youtu.be/rxjcKUk640Q
Céad mile fáilte donald
All Irish, Scots and Scots-Irish should rally around Trump when he comes. Let’s help make America great again as we did before……To hell with Ryan’s rabble-rousers.
I hope they don’t delay him in his car or they’ll find themselves in court on a kidnapping charge.
A dignified, low key and frosty reaction would be the best tactical response.
Protest is freedom of expression. Even if tactically unwise and counter productive, protest is a civil and fundamental human right and should only be constrained to the minimum extent required to keep reasonable order and to maintain public safety.
Democracy always involves diversity of opinion. We limit that expression of diversity of opinion at our peril.
Tactics? These clowns probably think tactics are a small box of mints.
At least we don’t hide behind fake names.
Says the clown with the picture of the dude..dj is my name. Did you make up that name by throwing a few scrabble letters on the ground.
Everyone getting wound up over Trump, would they be as quick to protest if Hillary Clinton came over? She’s a blood thirsty war mongering psycho. She got 600 k in speaking fees from Peter Sutherlands goldman sachs last year. She’s buddies with a Rothschild also.
Ger, yes he has a right to comment. No one is preventing him from doing so so relax the anti-racism reflexes and instead observe who he actually seems to be please.
Petr, not all complete strangers should actually be welcomed anywhere.
Sometimes, what looks and sounds like an Islamist supremacist is in fact an Islamist supremacist. Not a hapless victim of xenophobes.
Suddenly Trump doesn`t seem so bad after all, in fact I`m beginning to take quiet a shine to him, particularly when I see those that intend to protest against his golf course.
If ya want to get at Trump don’t let him build a big ugly wall on a beautiful beach. In fairness if you spend millions on sand dunes and don’t expect they to erode your a right trumps
or incapable of spelling?
Trump,just dump,if the Irish have any cop at all they surely won’t vote for this war monger,I fear for our future and our children’s future if this gombeen,who bought his way into the primaries is elected,my preference would be Bernie,but he seems to be in a little trouble at this point.
Hopefully he won’t get any kind of reception from our multi coloured government and the public.
Clare is his only stomping ground,all though we are hearing that his hotel and golf course staff are not very happy with the hourly rate they are getting.
“War monger” Your having a laugh . Name one war he has started .
Relax…he’s not running for Uachtarán na hÉireann.
You’re a clown Robert.
@Petrtarasov .Really what does that make you then . Answer the question “what war has he started” NONE
He hasn’t started any leads because he had not yet held any position of political power. However, in his short time as a candidate there has already been violence at his rallies, something which has not happened at others.
*any wars
@nealirelandhelolo . Do you read a newspaper or listen to the news . The last couple of rallys bernie/mexicanthugs/soros/BLM started it outside and inside . If i wanted to go and disrupt another political party either inside or outside i could hardly blame the other side . Trump supporters dont go to bernie or hillary rallies and cause trouble .
Trump is a threat to the corporate globalist consensus of open borders, and jobs destroying trade deals that make westerners compete with Third World companies paying workers 6 cent a day (Sanders mentioned that wage rate in Vietnam). I support him.
Ah lads….? Get a life
I look forward to them protesting the next Saudi visit.
Oh wait
Oh look, most of the comments are from the stand for nothing fall for everything brigade.
Trump is a clown with a dangerously low IQ, but I really can’t see what people think a protest in Ireland will accomplish. Most people outside of Ireland still think we’re part of the UK ffs, speaks to how much attention non-Irish people pay to the place outside of visiting cliffs and such.
Amazes me the number of people on here who would support this dangerous man. The world will become a very very unstable place if trump is elected
Clinton is worse. Trump will win not that it’s any of our business anyway
crackpots demonstrating against trump will help h in polls
If people had been more pro active in politics and had been watching it for the last 10 years, we might not have this mess, It’s about time the people woke up too see what’s really going on.
Whoever thinks trump is going to scale back US foreign policy has no idea about anything….. Expect the worse
Does Eamon Ryan thinks he’s represents all Irish people by saying that. I’m sure if he asked the 300 people whose livelihoods depend on the Trump Hotel in Doonbeg not to talk of 1000′s more in west Clare who benefit indirectly from the resort. He has some neck considering he was part of the worst administration since the foundation of the state. I wonder could a counter protest be organised? A protest against the protest maybe?
I hope to get down to welcome Donald Trump to ireland, I’ll get a big banner made. Anti Trump protesters will not threaten me. Time to end the power of the Rothschilds, the Peter Sutherlands, Noddy Mary Robinson, Time to tell them where top get off.
Not one mention of climate change in the election campaign and now we have a department dedicated to it. Paddy Power is giving 12/1 for Britexit and Trump to win
Where do we go to collect the umbrellas?
PJOC lets make America great again – what planet are you on- are you for real ?
A great America is good for Ireland
Really silly virtue signallers.
The Brownshirts are back .
have your say
