Irish Protesters Decry Trump’s Racism, Misogyny and Climate Denial

HeadlineJun 06, 2019

As Trump arrived at Ireland’s Shannon Airport, hundreds of protesters set up a “peace camp” to call out Trump’s policies on climate change, immigration and war.

Liz Hough: “I’m here today because of Trump’s misogyny, basically. Also, he’s a homophobic, a racist, an out-and-out narcissist. And that’s why I’m here today. I can’t stand any of his policies.”

Martin Vernon: “I think he’s a menace to the planet. He denies climate change, which is rampant and threatening the whole planet. And he’s withdrawn from the Paris Agreement.”
