During his St. Patrick's Day visit, Irish prime minister Micheál Martin faced a 'diplomatic balancing act' in talks with President Trump. Trump teased economic sanctions on Russia, criticized Senate minority leader Chuck Schumer and Sen. Elizabeth Warren, and shrugged off concerns over the Education Department's plans to lay off employees. Despite Trump's fighting Irish spirit, most of the punches weren't aimed at Martin. Trump also expressed frustration with the European Union's approval process for expanding his hotel in Ireland. The topic of Israel also came up, with Trump condemning everyday Gazans and omitting Ireland from his answer.
