Miriam BooshI think it’s time I introduce you to the President of Ireland. Michael D Higgins. He is the most precious thing we have. All the stereotypes about Ireland are true. We are hobbits.

Nahuel Lofeudo@Miriamm And his dogs. Don't forget his dogs.
Dalyrceri (Ann B.)@nahuellofeudo @Miriamm Totally agree! And the one looking up at him with 💕! If dogs think he's a good guy, than he absolutely is!
jimkennedy
@jimkennedy wait is this real
@Miriamm Absolutely! Opportunistic photographer just chanced his arm and Micheal D. obliged.
@jimkennedy he’s such a legend, what did we do to deserve him
Colm Ó Donnchadha@ColmDonoghue @Miriamm snap! I posted that one too.
Glenn@Miriamm I am also picking up a "Grandpa from the 1960's Munsters" vibe...

Giliell@Miriamm Not about the man in person, but I've just been to Dublin and walked by his seat and everything was so open and inviting, no people with machine guns anywhere and a pretty shady alleyway just a few paces off. That's the world I want to see.
Ricki Yasha Tarr@Miriamm This is what peak performance looks like
Kevin Teljeur ❄️@RickiTarr @Miriamm He is an amazing man. When he speaks, the Government cringes because he may say what we're all thinking. And when he's cranky, we feel him because we would be cranky too.

artisanroxoh my goodness YES I've seen this gentleman on social media and he's ADORABLE.
(And on the right side of history.)
(AND HIS DOGS are beautiful. ❤️ )
PirateJoie@Miriamm You live in the most beautiful country I’ve ever visited. It’s not just the land, it’s the people I encountered - such kindness and humanity and humor. And your music 🎶🎶🎶🎶
ralphthewonderllama@Miriamm Its actually the dogs that run the country, the president is just their feeder.
Book@Miriamm I see dogs. He gets votes.
Lazarou Monkey Terror 🚀💙🌈@Miriamm I point to Ireland when Brits say "well what should we have instead of a Monarch then?"
A little old man with his dog, that's what. Maybe just a dog?

Peter Brown@raktheundead @Lazarou @Miriamm He may be an old man with his dog, but he is greatly admired.
He talks little, but when he does he talks sense.

@Miriamm he looks like a movie character
Anne Ominous@Miriamm he reminds me a bit of the old Uruguayan president, who lived in his wife's farmhouse instead of the presidential palace and drove an old VW beetle around.
the guy was pretty great; he legalized gay marriage and weed.

Teknovis@Miriamm He is good, but I disagree with some of his comments and actions that appear to support Russia.
Regarding the role, 14 years is too long without change, and it should be easier for people to become candidates.

MillicentTheMagnificent@Miriamm Is there a more adorable man than this? I think not.

obscurestar@Miriamm For just a moment my brain didn't parse that image correctly and I thought he was a stubby-legged centaur.
kaffando@Miriamm
Ummm...leprechauns...not hobbits.
