Get him in and out quickly': Clare locals divided ahead of Trump's Ireland trip - AOL
Residents in Co Clare are split as US President Donald Trump prepares for a visit to Ireland on 12 and 13 September, including engagements in Dublin and at his golf resort in Doonbeg hosting the Irish Open. In Kilkee—near the course—some locals say the priority is getting Trump’s business impact “in and out” quickly, while recognizing he matters economically. The report describes an extensive police presence in Doonbeg and surrounding areas, with Garda vehicles and motorcycle units on patrol and road closures. Protests are planned in Dublin under the banner “No Welcome for Trump,” as well as in Doonbeg and at Shannon airport. Opinions range from those expecting protests to continue, to others who say residents there depend on the resort and tourism revenues.
