Daily Mail​2 days ago
Troubled ex-UFC star bizarrely invited Donald Trump to visit his Dublin pub to try the 'best Coke in Ireland.'
McGregor, who has recently been embroiled in a string of scandals, including a civil rape case, was invited to the White House earlier this year and now he wants to return the favor and give the president a 'unique, true, IRISH EXPERIENCE!' at the Black Forge Inn.
On X the fighter wrote: 'See you in November Donald, at Irelands greatest public house, the multi time award winning, @blackforgeinn!' McGregor wrote on X.

Conor continued: 'We look very forward! Ireland's friend @realDonaldTrump, we have the best Coke in all Ireland for you to try! Sparkly fizzy, and on the rocks. With Irish lemon and lime, also! For adding. ICE COLD!
'Our Coca Cola factory is just 5 minutes away on the long mile road, walking distance, from the black forge inn!
''GIVE THAT BOY A CAN OF COKE!' You are going to LOVE IT! The unique, true, IRISH EXPERIENCE!'
Alongside the social media message, Conor included an AI image of himself and Trump dressed as medieval knights around a table of meat and potatoes. In the image, Trump is drinking a can of Coca Cola.
The fighter's pub was recently set on fire, with authorities treating the blaze as criminal damage.
Meanwhile last week the ex-MMA star lost his attempt to overturn a jury's order that he compensate a woman who accused him of raping her. The court rejected the appeal in its entirety.
Nikita Hand alleged that Conor sexually assaulted her on December 9, 2018. He was found liable in November and three Dublin judges rejected all five grounds of the MMA fighter's appeal.
Conor was ordered to pay nearly €250,000 ($290,000), plus costs after Hand accused him of raping her at a hotel in Dublin in 2018.
He denied the allegation and said he had 'fully consensual sex'. He also denied causing bruising to the plaintiff.
Conor was not present for last week's decision, with Hand claiming she had been 'retraumatized' by the appeal.
She said: 'To every survivor out there, I know how hard it is but please don't be silenced. You deserve to be heard. You also deserve justice.'
Trump hosted the Irish MMA star and his family in the Oval Office on St Patrick's Day, with McGregor even vowing to raise concerns over immigration in Ireland with the president.
The star, who also attended Trump's inauguration in January, praised the president's 'inspiring' work ethic.

Why Trump is threatening to double India's tariffs

Donald Trump signed an executive order imposing a 50% tariff on Indian imports, citing India 's purchase of Russian oil This action has been criticised by India's opposition and public as 'bullying', with analysts warning it could undo two decades of diplomatic progress between the two nations. India has accused the US of double standards regarding Russian imports and vowed to protect its national interests, despite concerns that further escalation could harm it beyond trade. Analysts suggest the relationship is at its worst point since 1998, with India facing pressure to reduce Russian oil purchases without appearing to surrender to Trump's demands. Indian government sources indicate a need to gradually repair ties with the US while increasing engagement with the BRICS bloc and other nations affected by Trump's tariffs and aid cuts.

Trump says he could impose more tariffs on China, similar to India duties, over Russian oil

WASHINGTON, Aug 6 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump on Wednesday said he could announce further tariffs on China similar to the 25% duties announced earlier on India over its purchases of Russian oil, depending on what happens. "Could happen," Trump told reporters, after saying he expected to announce more secondary sanctions aimed at pressuring Russia to end its war in Ukraine. He gave no further details. "It may happen ... I can't tell you yet," Trump said. "We did it with India. We're doing it probably with a couple of others. One of them could be China." Trump on Wednesday imposed an additional 25% tariff on Indian goods, on top of a 25% tariff announced previously, citing its continued purchases of Russian oil. The White House order did not mention China, which is another big purchaser of Russian oil. Last week, U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent warned China that it could also face new tariffs if it continued buying Russian oil.

Trump may ‘personally intervene' to stop Mamdani becoming New York mayor

Donald Trump is considering getting involved in the New York mayoral race in an effort to stop Zohran Mamdani from winning. The US president reportedly spoke to Andrew Cuomo after he lost the Democratic primary to socialist candidate Mr Mamdani, according to insiders. Mr Trump is also said to have pressed a Republican congressman and a New York businessman about who has the best chance of beating the millennial frontrunner, The New York Times reported. Despite losing to Mr Mamdani, weeks later Mr Cuomo re-entered the race as an independent candidate, adding to an already crowded field. Mr Trump later denied having spoken to Mr Cuomo. Eric Adams, the current mayor, is also running independently, while Curtis Sliwa is the Republican candidate. Mr Trump is said to have been briefed by Mark Penn, a pollster who worked for the Clintons, and Andrew Stein, a former New York City council president, who have both apparently suggested Mr Cuomo would be the best candidate. During a White House meeting in mid-July, Mr Trump asked congressman Mike Lawler, a Republican from the New York suburbs, about who would stand the best chance in a one-on-one race against Mr Mamdani, a source told The New York Times. The source said Mr Trump doubted whether Mr Sliwa could win and said he liked Mr Adams and had always gotten on with Mr Cuomo. It is not clear how Mr Trump would involve himself were he to decide to try and intervene in the race, but allies of Mr Adams and Mr Cuomo have been hoping Mr Trump will help coalesce support around one anti-Mamdani opponent. If all three rivals stay in the race, the vote could splinter and hand Mr Mamdani the keys to Gracie Mansion. Mr Mamdani's promises to freeze rent, open city-run supermarkets and free buses helped him achieve a sweeping victory in the Democratic primary. His campaign, largely run on social media, has capitated voters frustrated with extortionate prices. Mr Trump's conversation with Mr Cuomo reportedly took place when the former New York governor was deciding whether to continue his campaign. While some Republicans view Mr Mamdani as a potentially useful bogeyman of the Left who would provide useful ammunition for the 2026 midterms, Mr Trump is said to be concerned about the Democratic candidate's policies. Mr Trump, who was born and raised in New York and owns several businesses in the city, has publicly criticised Mr Mamdani. Last month, Mr Trump vowed he would not 'let this communist lunatic destroy New York', saying he holds 'all the levers' and 'all the cards'. He added: 'I'll save New York City, and make it 'hot' and 'great' again, just like I did with the good ol' USA!' Rich Azzopardi, a spokesman for Mr Cuomo, said Mr Trump and Mr Cuomo 'have not spoken in a while' but did not expand on how long 'a while' meant. 'As far as I know, they have not discussed the race,' Mr Azzopardi said. Mr Mamdani said in a statement: 'Andrew Cuomo has spent his career governing for the powerful and prioritising his own self-interests over those of the people he was sworn to serve. This is not just a shady backroom deal by a cynical politician, it is disqualifying. It is a betrayal.' He added: 'The job of New York City mayor is not to be [a] jester for a wannabe king, it is to protect the people of this city.'
