And just when we thought the dust had settled after Micheál Martin's visit to the Oval Office.

Conor McGregor's appearance in the White House was somewhat foreshadowed by Trump, who had referred to him as his favourite Irish person, but it caught many off guard.

Could this be the start of Trump taking the former UFC fighter under his wing?
