The plant quote already ran. This microphone is in Dublin.
Reuters, Dublin, Sept. 12: President Donald Trump, after meeting Ireland’s prime minister, Micheál Martin, at Farmleigh House, told reporters he would “love” to see Ireland unify with British-run Northern Ireland and that it would happen eventually.
Quote: “Well, I don’t want to cause any problems, but I will tell you, I’d love to see it unified.” “The way I look at it, it’s going to happen eventually … I think it would be a fantastic thing.” “Now the UK will have something to say about it … but I think it would be a great thing.” Reporting by Padraic Halpin.
This is a president answering questions on foreign soil. It is not a scheduled border poll. It is not an amendment to the Good Friday Agreement. It is not London’s position. He said the UK would have something to say. We will not invent Belfast’s.
Morning already used the Ingraham plant line. Do not staple this to Mexico.
What this means for you
If you needed a China factory, that was 8 a.m. If you needed a Dublin quote, this is the quote. If you needed a treaty, wait for text.
Bottom line: He’d love it unified. Eventually. Not a referendum. The UK still has a say.
