Trump hints at united Ireland during Ireland visit, prompting mixed responses

The comments, made at a Dublin press conference with Taoiseach Micheál Martin, contrasted with the Good Friday Agreement’s referendum dynamics, which UK officials say lack enough support. Trump also met Martin and Irish President Catherine Connolly, toured Doonbeg for the Irish Open, criticized pharma in Ireland, and faced protests as he wrapped up a brief visit that continues with his return to Washington.
