Locals in Dundalk have enthusiastically received US President Joe Biden today, with ‘Welcome home Joe’ and cheers repeatedly being heard from the crowd.
Someone had also hung a huge banner reading ‘Dundalk welcomes President Biden.’
The most powerful man in the world took the time to mingle with those gathered to greet him and reportedly took selfies with them.
Such a welcoming attitude contrasts rather starkly with the widespread and well deserved derision shown to the disgraced former President Donald Trump, who was met with overwhelming scorn by the people of Ireland when he last visited the country.
