Guys not fit to be an MMA fighter.

[-] wuffah@lemmy.world 93 points 4 days ago

I don’t know much about MMA or Ireland and I could have told you that.

Is it the assaults or perhaps the fact that he doesn’t know anything or care about anyone other than himself?

[-] BarbecueCowboy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 30 points 4 days ago

I thought it was just the one, but apparently he's up to 3 sexual assault cases including a rape case where he lost the case and the appeal (in civil court). Looks like at least 3 regular old assault cases too, along with some dangerous driving cases thrown in for kicks.

US should take note on this.

And like what, give him a seat in office?

[-] shittydwarf@sh.itjust.works 30 points 4 days ago

Only if he starts diddling kids, in that case they would elect him twice

[-] Frog@lemmy.ca 8 points 4 days ago

He can be in charge of DOGE and legalize adding cocaine back in to sodas.

[-] UnderFreyja@lemmy.ca 38 points 4 days ago

Wild that this was ever a question

[-] lemmy_outta_here@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

Yeah, really. He's not fit to chair a bake sale committee.

[-] UnderFreyja@lemmy.ca 8 points 4 days ago

Not a bro, not an American 😅

But I get what you're saying

My bad - I was being pithy, but shouldn’t have assumed lol

Edit: for real tho I really hope ireland doesn’t pick that guy :(

[-] khannie@lemmy.world 7 points 4 days ago

There's zero chance thankfully. There's an initial hurdle of getting on the ballot that he won't pass (plus he's roundly considered an idiot here).

From this page:

To be eligible for election as President, you must be an Irish citizen who is 35 or older. You must be nominated either by:

  • At least 20 members of the Oireachtas
  • At least 4 local authorities
  • Former or retiring Presidents can nominate themselves

Oireachtas means parliament.

Who up lifting weights with they meat?

[-] yeahiknow3@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 4 days ago

All humans are animals. But some animals are not people, as Conor McGregor clearly demonstrates.
