Trump praises McGregor; comments on O'Donnell's relocation

US President Donald Trump praised Irish fighter Conor McGregor during a press event, highlighting his tattoos and calling him "great." Trump noted that Ireland has many strong fighters, referencing Taoiseach Micheál Martin's late father, a boxer. Trump also commented on comedian Rosie O'Donnell's recent move to Ireland, suggesting Martin was "better off not knowing" her. O'Donnell relocated to escape what she described as the "cruelty" of the US government and is applying for Irish citizenship. The exchange occurred during a joint press conference where Trump and Martin answered questions from the media. O'Donnell's long-standing feud with Trump was briefly mentioned, but Martin appeared unfamiliar with her.
