Conor McGregor was a surprise guest this afternoon in the press release of the White House Press, and even went to the stage to give its own Q&A.
The former Two-Wight UFC world champion is in Washington DC to visit President Donald Trump. Last week the president complimented his tattoos and fighting style as he met the Irish Taoiseach (Prime Minister) Micheál Martin, and they are now gathering to celebrate St Patrick's Day.
Although McGregor can be seen as the newest in a series of athletes and celebrities that appear in the White House, he regards it as serious things. He has pushed strongly to his own presidential run in his native Ireland, with elections that are expected this year.

McGregor wrote this morning for the meeting on Instagram and emphasized the importance of his meeting with Trump and said: “I land briefly in Washington for the most important meeting of my countries [sic] future. I am more than ready. The world will hear the call from Ireland! “
