The Irish PM appeared to have an especially in your face message for Donald Trump and people loved him for it
Irish Prime Minister Micheál Martin was busy during his visit to the White House, mainly with taking Donald Trump down a peg.
Martin spent the majority of his time in Washginton, DC doing what the media and Congress don’t: confronting Trump with the truth in the face of constant lies.
First, Martin made sure to set the record straight about British PM, Keir Starmer, after Trump’s off-topic attacks.
Then he took time out of his prepared statement to address the unrest Trump has unleashed across the globe. It was not a positive review.

The stealth attack hardly registered with a dozy Trump, but no doubt he’ll throw a Truth Social tantrum later when he realizes how Martin laid the blame for all of the chaos in today’s world at Trump’s swollen feet.
Here are just a few of the online replies singing Martin’s praises for doing what so few other leaders tend to do.

Wise words from a wise people.
And real courage to stand up there in front of that vainglorious wretch of a man and say what needs to be said.
