Thousands march through Dublin in protest against Donald Trump's visit ...

Thirty groups organized the march, and protesters said Trump’s policies harm Irish people and fuel opposition to U.S. military presence in Shannon.

  • On Saturday, thousands of demonstrators marched from Parnell Square to Molesworth Street as US President Donald Trump began a two-day trip to Ireland, signaling the president was not welcome in Dublin.
  • A poll by Ireland Thinks and the Sunday Independent showed 69% of those surveyed did not welcome the visit, reflecting public opposition to Trump's policies and global military interventions.
  • Marchers carried placards reading "Murderer, rapist, thief, golfer" and "You can't bomb your way out of the Epstein files," while activist Ailbhe Smyth labeled the visit a "grotesque pantomime" that normalizes assaults on democracy.
  • During a meeting with Taoiseach Micheál Martin, Trump responded to questions about demonstrations by joking the protests were "friendly," while Labour TD Ciarán Ahern criticized the government's "sycophancy" in facilitating the visit.
  • Following morning engagements in Dublin, the president traveled to his golf resort in Doonbeg for the Irish Open, contrasting sharply with the 50,000 who greeted Barack Obama at College Green in 2011.
