Imagine an American MMA fighter landing at Dublin Airport and grabbing a coffee from O’Brien’s before being asked about the an Irish contender to be An Taoiseach.
Unfortunately [for entertainment’s sake], there is no Irish equivalent of mega millionaire mouth-piece Donald Trump positioning for Enda Kenny’s crown.
Trump has an opinion about just about everything and piped up when former UFC women’s bantamweight Ronda Rousey was knocked out by Holly Holm.
Glad to see that @RondaRousey lost her championship fight last night. Was soundly beaten – not a nice person!

Conor McGregor landed in Los Angeles, at LAX, on Monday and the first two questions he was asked, by a TMZ reporter, were about Rousey and the Trump comments.
“It’s easy for someone who is not in there to comment,” McGregor stated. “It is different when they are in there.”
As for Trump…
“Donald can shut his big, fat mouth,” McGregor declared.
“I don’t give a f*ck about Donald Trump.”
We await Trump’s follow-up tweet.
