Trump criticises Ireland during Irish PM's visit to White House
Donald Trump has criticised Ireland for using its tax policies to lure away US companies.
Speaking in the White House next to the Irish premier, Micheál Martin, he took aim at Ireland’s use of its tax system to attract pharmaceutical and other companies.
He claimed that Ireland is among the countries taking advantage of the US.
He also doubled down on his vow to impose reciprocal tariffs to help rebuild US manufacturing.
Trump on said his tariffs plan will restore fairness to US trade, even as major partners announced countermeasures to new US tariffs on steel and aluminium.
“We’ve been abused for a long time and we will be abused no longer,” he said.
He added that he would even out his country’s “massive deficit”.
Trump spoke with reporters at the start of a meeting with the Irish prime minister in the Oval Office.

Just let him wank on with whatever briefing he got 5mins before the meeting, & then let the adults deal with it afterward.
In this case maybe ask the reporters where Donnie will get his ED prescription filled, & Melania her Botox if they raise tariffs against Irish pharmaceuticals ?
Or maybe ask where his great new replacement for Obamacare is ?, because that's what's going to have to be funded to pay for increased pharma costs for all Americans.
