Trump acquired the Doonbeg golf club in 2014 following a storm at a rock bottom price. According to the Irish Times, when Trump took over the resort the entire village experienced an economic boost, leaving many residents very grateful to the American businessman.
Nonetheless, not all of Doonbeg has supported his presidential bid.
The Irish Time quote a local retired schoolteacher, James Griffin, as saying: “Donald Trump is good for Doonbeg –- I’m not too sure he would be good for the world. He has brought jobs to Doonbeg. He has done a fantastic job with the course, but I would have a lot of problems with his political ideas and I don’t think I am alone in that."

Residents of Aberdeen have pulled several stunts such as hoisting the Mexican flag as part of a wider movement called Tripping Up Trump to protest Trump's campaign to build a golf course in their city.
Locals, who have accused Trump of blackmailing Scotland, vehemently oppose Trump's plans on the grounds his actions disproportionately disrupt local homeowners.
Their struggles have been documented in a film called You've Been Trumped, which Trump's lawyers attempted to stop the BBC from airing, calling it a "highly biased and manipulative so-called documentary."
Based on the RTE Today interview, the experience in Ireland has been much less controversial.
