Trump arrives in Ireland for talks and to watch the Irish Open

The visit mixes official talks with Irish leaders and an attendance of the Irish Open at a golf course which the president owns.

President Donald Trump touched down in Dublin, Ireland on Saturday for a weekend visit. His itinerary includes talks with Irish President Catherine Connolly and Prime Minister Micheál Martin. Trump will also address U.S. and Irish business leaders at the U.S. ambassador's residence before heading to his golf club in Doonbeg. Police have set up a perimeter around Dublin's sprawling Phoenix Park.

The visit has sparked mixed reactions, with some locals expressing annoyance and others decrying Trump's attitudes towards women, immigrants, and minority communities. Several opposition groups plan to protest his arrival. Known for his golfing habits, Trump's attendance at the Irish Open aligns with his pattern of participating in and potentially benefiting from high-profile sporting events.
