American and Irish flags fly in front of a series of facilities in the West Clare town of Doonbeg, where the Trump family owns a five-star golf resort.
The hotel and golf club employed over 300 people at the height of the tourist season, and is also responsible for supporting a number of other tourism businesses such as restaurants, pubs, chauffeur companies, and tour buses in Co Clare.
President Donald Trump stayed at the resort during his visit to Ireland in June 2019, bringing a great international profile to the rural coastal village.
His sons, Eric and Don Jr, were also regular visitors to the town and dined at local restaurants and bars.
Vice President Mike Pence, who has family ancestry from the village, also visited his family and stayed at the Trump resort in September last year.
President Trump’s investment in the village has been welcomed by many locals who say it is badly needed in the area.
They will watch with interest if Trump will be elected to a second term, so that the international profile of the village can continue.
