The problem is a combination of people not voting and vote transfers, it inflates the winning side significantly and makes it look like they got the majority of the vote. The dáil would be much more politically diverse were it not for vote transfers.

Note how close apple 🍏 and Tim Cooke is getting towards trump, and remember all that money we don’t want, well imagine if the USA done apple a little deal on that 😅

[@EmilePesky-n1v]

You cannot seriously be that slow minded? The guy owns a resort hotel here but he's at the same time going to bankrupt us? He was already President for 4 years and it was infinitely better than the 4 years of Biden. Things will improve, dramatically, while president Trump is in office, not just for America. For one, we'll have cheaper energy once his policies kick in. Hopefully the Ukrainians will go home, unless the politicians are too fond of using them as prostitutes and cheap labour

President Trump must be reminded, Simon Harris the Irish prime minister publicly shamed him online!

[@JamesBurke-yt9wc]

I’m pretty sure he was displaying his own ignorance, I’m sure he only shamed himself.

[@themsmloveswar3985]

Simon who ?

[@shaneodonovan6665]

I gave up watching RTE years ago, got sick of their Pravda style broadcasts and never holding the government accountable for their Covid policies. I used to enjoy Newstalk once upon a time, but Pat Kenny and his constant Orange man bad commentary would give you hives. He’s a quarter of a century past his prime as a so called journalist (if he ever had a prime). He should retire, surely he’s enough money made. Thank god for Gript media and John, Sarah and Ben.

[@Mary-jn4kl]

Totally agree 👏👏👏

[@grahamlight9283]

What about the "international obligations".....They only apply to Ireland obviously.

[@brianbickle7395]

Pity they can’t remember their National “obligations “ to the sick and homeless

[@Prodrive1]

All BS. This is all being done to satisfy the Globalist Cabal.

[@seanclose3710]

Thanks!

[@tadpole1492]

After our last election & the horrific result I have given up watching the shit show that is RTE. The propaganda legacy media is all but dead. Just wish our government were as well. Keep up the great work Gript 👍 You offer us some hope 👏

[@frederickbeggy4111]

When President Trump won in 2016 tears could be herd on RTE radio the following morning and this time there were tears again; poor things. They have Trump derangement syndrome and giving them three quarters of a billion euro to continue leftie journalism is outragious.

[@forevertoons9022]

If people were able to look a bit deeper into things, they'd come up with some surprising results. The "convicted felon" case - 34 counts - was from a clearly unconstitutional case based on his accountant's bookkeeping. Each of those 34 instances was Trump initialing the entry in the bookkeeper's log. A misdemeanor, illegally elevated to a felony. The "assault' case involved a women, who had made the same accusations on seven different occasions against seven different men. Said to have happened almost forty years ago, well after the statute of limitations had run out. She didn't remember when it supposedly took place - down to even the year, even where it took place. Both cases will be tossed out on appeal - undoubtedly.
