Conor McGregor is one of the biggest and most influential names in Ireland. McGregor’s story is one that serves as an inspiration to many around the world. While pursuing his MMA dreams, McGregor was unemployed and lived off government welfare schemes. Today he is one of the highest-paid athletes in the world.

McGregor recently posted a picture on Twitter with the caption, “Ireland, your President”. He has now followed that up with a tweet assessing his competition and his chances of presidency. He said,
“Potential competition if I run. Gerry, 78. Bertie. 75. Enda, 74. Each with unbreakable ties to their individual parties politics. Regardless of what the public outside of their parties feel. These parties govern themselves vs govern the people. Or me, 35. Young, active, passionate, fresh skin in the game. I listen. I support. I adapt. I have no affiliation/bias/favoritism toward any party. They would genuinely be held to account regarding the current sway of public feeling. I’d even put it all to vote. There’d be votes every week to make sure. I can fund. It would not be me in power as President, people of Ireland. It would be me and you.”
