The richest man in the world is so bereft of an inner life that he spent the last few days encouraging racist pogroms in a country he is woefully ignorant of. He is the Wizard of Oz, the Emporer with no clothes and still a sad, lonely loser.

People like Quinn and his Iona brethren love to push the 'silent majority' myth. No, the vast majority do not want a hardline Catholic for president, we do not hate immigrants and we most definitely do not support a genocidal apartheid state.

Every far-right riot and protest that was tolerated, every racist dog whistle from public reps, every bit of hate and misinformation allowed to spread by social media companies, all led to this moment in Drogheda last night where someone felt emboldened enough to try to burn children alive.

Just so people realise who was behind the 'spoil your vote' campaign... This article appeared in Gript, which is owned by multi-millionaire Declan Ganley, who was given ample air time on our national broadcaster prior to the presidential election to spout his grievances about the candidates.
