Environmental activists and concerned citizens gathered at Dublin airport,resolute to give Trump a “brutal warning.” The protests grew to thousands, with people from all walks of life gathering outside the airport, their messages clear and defiant.
The demonstrations didn’t stop at Dublin. Environmental activists at Trump’s golf resort in County Clare also raised concerns about the project’s impact on the local ecosystem.

Activists believe that the advancement has harmed Ireland’s environmental integrity and that immediate action is needed to address these issues.
For the workers at Trump’s resort, the issue is complex. They must balance the economic stability provided by their jobs with their personal convictions about the environmental and social impact of the project.While the resort employs hundreds of people and plays a significant economic role in the region, workers are also aware of the broader concerns raised by the community and environmentalists.

Veteran comedian and outspoken critic, Rosie O’Donnell, took to social media, where she has a ample following, to support the protesters. In a series of impassioned posts, O’Donnell urged her followers to join the protest and voice their disapproval. Her influence amplified the message, making the protest a global affair that resonated far beyond Ireland.
