Conor McGregor Announces Presidential Run in Ireland
Conor McGregor, the renowned mixed martial artist, has announced his intention to run for the presidency of Ireland. He made this declaration on social media, emphasizing his desire to provide the Irish people with a stronger voice in the nation’s future.
Sporting a “Make Ireland Great Again” hat—a nod to former U.S. President Donald Trump’s slogan—McGregor expressed concerns about the country’s direction, particularly regarding immigration policies. He criticized the current administration’s stance on the EU Migration Pact and advocated for a referendum to let citizens decide on the matter.
This announcement follows McGregor’s recent visit to the White House, where he met with Trump, who has previously referred to McGregor as his “favorite Irishman.” During this visit, McGregor voiced his apprehensions about illegal immigration and emphasized the importance of preserving Ireland’s identity.
McGregor’s political aspirations come amid personal controversies, including a recent civil court ruling finding him liable for assaulting a woman in 2018—a verdict he plans to appeal. Despite these challenges, he remains committed to his presidential bid, aiming to bring what he describes as “true democracy” to Ireland by empowering citizens to vote on critical issues.
The next presidential election in Ireland is scheduled to take place by November 11, 2025. McGregor’s entry into the political arena adds a notable dimension to the upcoming electoral landscape.
