After accepting his invite to the White House, Conor McGregor was nothing but complimentary toward Donald Trump as the two came face to face.
Millions of people have countless things to say both good and bad about ‘The Notorious’, but one thing that cannot be denied is the love that the man has for his country. The UFC icon has been vocal about problems plaguing Ireland at present and believes he has some answers to fix the ongoing situation.
During his trip to the White House, Conor McGregor spoke to the media about his concerns for his declining nation, but that wasn’t the only thing he did while attending the US President’s residence.
McGregor was able to meet Donald Trump and showed nothing but love and respect for the 78-year-old.
