Both of them look like they're about to set off on a fantasy adventure journey through middle earth
Omg that’s true and it would be a fantastic movie!
True 😂😂😂
🤣I'd pay to see that movie.
@@ExquisiteKinkyCoils me to
Muahahaha, indeed.👍
He looks exactly how you'd imagine the president of Ireland to look like.
I was picturing a leprechaun with a pint of beer but this works too.
He soo does 😂😂😂😂😂
He’s a figure head . Not the real leader
I agree but who is the dude in the suit
Haha. Yehhp. 😊.
By the look of his body language it's safe to say he's indeed a 100% *GOOD BOI*
But what about the dog?
@@ArwenUndomiel406 The bestest boi!!
@@ArwenUndomiel406 hol up
He's prefect
Who?
He doesn't even bat an eye! Such a good doggo owner, the dog obvs LOVE him and he's continually touching the dog, while still remaining professional. Probs!
Exactly. And you have to be a nice man to raise such a good boy. Dogs have good instincts. If the dog likes him....
@@maaiker2977lol Hitler's dog loved him too. And guess what, dogs will kill other animals if they're small enough, and have fun doing it. They love toys that squeak when they bite them, because it simulates death squeals. They're carnivores. Their instincts tell them they must kill to live.
'You're tripping if you think dogs can "sense evil". They can sense aggression.
He looks like the guy that tells stories to his grandchildren and later turns out to be a super powerful wizard with a cute talking dog
Very relatable
He's actually a hobbit
The dog being named after some old philosopher with at least 4 syllables
Xd
Did you noticed the acorn?
The president of Ireland is a living, breathing Ghibli character.
I love MD Higgins whatever happens in this world we have him X 😊 o
Lol
The giant acorn really drives it home
1) Am Irish 2) I've met the Man, so I can confirm, He's fecking tiny 🤣
Well said!!
He gives the vibe of that grandpa who loves his dog the most ♥️
It's honestly really impressive how he's able to focus both on giving a speech and giving his dog attention both at the exact same time.
@GR Liverpool that man is the pride of this country. If we didn't like him he wouldn't be president
@GR Liverpool You have Liverpool in your name. You are not Irish and you need to shove off cus it's none of your business
This president appears to be a master at multitasking. 10/10
And the United States president can’t even read a teleprompter.
@@joesmith1574😂😂
The US president shat himself too, look up Queen consort camellias disgust at president Biden for it, she slags him off 😂😂 he sharted😂😂
One of the great things about dogs, they don’t care if you’re the President of Ireland. To the dog, you’re his human and buddy.
That's one reason dogs are generally good judges of character, their opinion is not swayed by profession/station etc. - you're a good person or not.
Because they are dumb
Isnt that the same for allanimals allthough some of then are hard to tame
@@skotiskiller well thats hypocritical to say
@@tega588 If trolls had any self-awareness/intelligence they wouldn't be trolls.
Irish person here, and yes, Michael D Higgins IS a lovely person, and a good president. He recently celebrated his 80th birthday.
The dog's name is Misneach (Mish-nock), which is Irish for courage, and she's also lovely.
Thanks for the info!
Tanks. People asking about the giant acorn. Is that Phoenix park?
@StNick119
American here (partly of Irish descent). I was just about to post a comment asking her name when I saw your comment. Thank you for the info!💚🇮🇪🇺🇸
I hope that they both have long and safe lives and continue to serve the lovely people of Ireland well 🍀
Well as patient your President is,he certainly has the dogs vote
I do adore all these comments! Yep that’s our president, “owl Mickey D” he’s also a poet 😁💚🇮🇪
I can that
You're lucky to have him 🙏😍
I just have a question...what's up with acorns in Ireland? Are you that small for real?
@@juandiegofm yep we’re actually that small. My family actually lives inside an acorn, on the outskirts of oak tree glen. It’s very simple now, just a one up two down but it suits us just grand. 😁🍀
@@0RoseRed What a relief!...someday I'd like to pay you a visit...but I was too scared to find some giant squirrels with massive teeth! Spooky! Now I'm just worry about how I'm gonna fit into a bar for a delicious mini Guinness 😍...but that's just a little inconvenience. Have a lovely day and keep safe.🙏
The dog is adorable - and the fact that the guy isn't even bothered one bit about the dog's antics is absolutely precious!
(That ginormous acorn - only in Ireland...😂)
Casual refers to a president as 'that guy'
You can tell this is an everyday occurrence. The dog knows he can't resist the pet, and the person knows he can't either
Or he wants a snack (the dog)
😂😂
@@schorpioen7466 dog wants some Lucky Charms
That's Misneach, his pup. Misneach is pronounced 'mish nock'. It means 'courage'. He has another hooligan who also eats him alive. 🤣😂🤣 He's called Bród (meaning 'Pride') and he, too, is a Bernese Mountain Dog.
@@schorpioen7466 agreed, the doggo is looking for a treat in his pocket.
His focus though! If they only showed the President's upper body, you would never know that there was a dog wrestling with his hand.

This is Ireland’s magic at its finest The president himself, with the acorn in the background is “obviously” a chieftain leprechaun 🍀 who remains unperturbed by the call for attention of his assistant and loyal companion and with exemplary resilience manages to keep reciting his fabulous tales to his audience of elfs, gnomes and fellow leprechauns… absolutely fantabulous !
Creative.
Fun fact: The true leader of Ireland (Not the president, the president is only a figurehead) is called the Taoiseach, which is actually Irish for chieftain. Though, most non-Irish people just call him the Prime Minister.
He seems like a nice man. His dog clearly loves him. I loved how he gently held his paw for a little while. So sweet.
Agree! He's so confident that his dog won't bite him. Showing that they both love each other. ❤️❤️❤️
He's a super wise man too, very well spoken
why is he allowing his country to be destroyed by government tyranny?
Agree! It's like he's telling his doggie, "Now, now, Daddy's working now. Daddy will give you lots of hugs and kisses in a minute." Awww....such a sweet scene to witness.
@gi k Oh, how cute. Let's talk about an easy topic that we know nothing about but everyone will automatically agree with us. Intellectually shallow.
exactly what i thought the pres of ireland would look like
😂🤣😩😩😩
Yup!😂
@Caius Iulis Caesar Octavianus Augustus Quiet down you simple fool.
Like a grown-up leprechaun?
😅😂😂
Actually the dog is the president and his human is just the translator.
I love Ireland, even their politicians are human beings.
Good one 🤝😁
@@jaideepsingh3143 I know my jokes.
Yup. We don't really argue over politics here, we just love dogs and spuds
I love how his dogs are often with him. Even he’s doing something official and Presidential!
Unfortunately it’s just the one dog now, the other passed away earlier this year
@@finn4012 No he has two again. This one in the video is the new one
This is pure love😀
@@finn4012 Misneach is the New one. Uachtaráin Michael D got her to keep Bród company since Síoda sadly passed away last year. Thats why she's so playful she's only a madra beag
@@deaganachomarunacathasaigh4344 that’s wonderful news
Not a single person talking about that giant acorn at the back
All these likes, acorn believe it!
It's a regular sized acorn. Him and his dog are just that tiny and cute.
This is what acorns look like compared to leprechauns and leprechaun dogs.
@@colinyoung3685 we call them Lepre-hounds. They're a serious problem here. They killed 37 people last year.
Literally didn’t even notice it until you pointed it out. The man and dog are highly captivating!
@@deadfr0g they live in a wonderland, midget man with his dog, giant acorn, there might be a giant squirrel too
Doggo just wants everyone to know that this is his daddy that he loves!
never seen Ireland's president before or heard anything about him but that dogs affection i can tell regardless of politics he is a good man
Yet there are people who treat animals well and are horrible people, judging people good because they treat some animal well is very dumb and naive, to say the least
Especially when the worst types of people tend to be animal lovers.

This made my whole day! Thank you!👏🏻😂👏🏻😂👏🏻😂
Lol
I love how the president of Ireland is a cute lil old man with a playful dog. ❤️
He’s actually a lovely man , he is comical to look at & very witty in person , a very intelligent & interesting person , with a love for the Arts 🎭
Right,and getting a pile of cash for the trouble
He has a very tall Wizard friend as well
Petition for this man to be ceo of the world
I thought so too, but I somehow I can't escape the feeling that all that cuteness obscures a gentleman of piercing intellect.
Irish people are so warm and down to earth. Loved the simplicity of the president. Love from a former British Colony. 🇮🇪❤️🇮🇪
A man has his priorities, and his doggo is far more important than an entire country
Plot twist: The dog is Ireland's President, his name is Michael Dog Higgins, and the old man is his interpreter.
L.O.L.
Lame
🤣🤣🤣
Alex K. Still using the old, overused "plot twist" stinker...
@@Bevity Why are CZcams comments a warfare
The dog's actions show that the president is an excellent, kind hearted human being. I'm proud of him.
Our president is so kind
People can be kind to animals and cruel to other humans. Aka hitler
@@rotemta7 well yeah, but Mr. Higgins is just a sound lad.
That was the first thing that came to mind. He was sooooo kind to his dog. Some people whod have shouted at the dog or made them mgo away. THe dog wanted to enjoy being with his master and the master wanted the dog to enjoy being with him so he engaged with his dog. What a wonderful, relationship to watch. The dog seemed so very happy to be there and felt so free to play and be loved. What a kind, kind man. It was mezmerising to watch. Loved it.
the dog's actions? is it good behaviour in dog's when they chew on your hands? just a curious cat person here
I already like this man and didn't even hear a word. Just like how kind he is to the dog.
Plot twist: That acorn isn't very big its actually just hovering very close to the camera.
Now, Dougal... small... and far away.
@@silvasilvasilva LOL
For anyone who’s not Irish, he has **two** Bernese Mountain dogs called Bród(pride) and Síoda(silk) and and they’re the absolute cutest. Síoda died recently, so he now has a five month old puppy called Misneach(courage)
How is he is a leader? I know that's a charged question considering all people know how to do is slander each other if their opinions differ but yeah, just judging off the dog (who are good indicators on a person's character) seems like a nice bloke
@@BasementBubbatunde so the president of Ireland is more like a ceremonial figure. He doesn’t have much power over laws and stuff, because the more political leader is the Taoiseach(prime minister). Michael D is literally beloved by everyone tho he’s so cute and an icon lol
@@aoifefitzgerald7379 Ohhhh okay I get it, makes sense now as I was surprised reading the Irish had a president lol. Glad that's cleared up for me 😂
But that's awesome hahaha, only took me this clip to like him and I'm on the other side of the world, if a Doggo gives you the tick of approval like that im not gonna argue with him lol
Síoda died back in September 😭 Rip she was a good girl
Super cool of you to give us the background on him and his dogs WITH the Gaelic words! Thank you very much for that 🙏🏽
He’s also an absurdly popular president over here. He won his re-election by more than 50% against like 7 other candidates
They say animals don't lie about someone's character
Well of course he did, if he lost nobody would get to see his dog on tv anymore
Maybe we should have dogs do all the voting............at least give it a try
Like our President Trump!!
@@VardaoftheStars no no no
Irish President: *Exists*
Americans: NARNIA, FAIRY FOLK, SÍ, MAGICAL, FANTASY LEPRACHAUN MAN🥺
To me he looks like Danny De Vito
Generalize much?
This is the type of man I want to be in my life... Trying very very hard...❤️
The president has got some nerve talking during his dogs show.
Right 😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
🥰
😃😃😃

THIS is what I imagine the president of Narnia to look like.
😂😂
He reminds me of a professor from Harry Potter. Oh I miss that story 😁
😂 Yes
@@nirmaniasha he definitely looks like Horace Slughorn
Narnia hahaha
You know a good man when his dog loves him that much
Dressed like that, I’m sure the president of Ireland was warning the public about troll attacks
Hes like a parent trying to talk to another family member while his child is asking for something lmaoo
Lmao
Lol fr I was thinking if the dog was a child he would be asking to go to the bathroom
I can just hear it too. “Dad! Daddy! Look at me. Hey! Dad!”
haha, this is so accurate. My son is like this as soon as ANYONE comes round the house.
Or just a toddler in general whenever they know they don't have their parent's attention. Haha
An old man in a green suit, a lone blue mic, a clearing in some forest, a hairy, very needy dog and a humongous acorn - Interesting indeed.
To be fair that forest is essentially his front lawn. Phoenix Park is fairly big
I didn't even spot the acorn until I read this! 😅
He is down to earth not like trump.
What if the acorn is normal and everything else is tiny?
How is Ireland even real lmaooo
I would vote for this man based on how kind he's being to the dog
President: Giving an important speech
Doggo: i missed the part where that's my problem?
For those of you wondering about the acorn: that's actually just a regular sized acorn. Many foreigners don't realize just how small our president is.☘️
So the puppy was teething.
@@Monkeyshaman It's actually a hamster.
Lmao that was great
🤣😅🤣😅
🤣
The dog is saying yeah he may be the President to you but he’s my dad and he promised to take me for a walk Come on dad 🙏🏽🐕❤️
That's all these cuties want. Walk, food, sleep, cuddles.
💖 truth
I love this!!! He loves his daddy!! And you can tell his daddy loves him because Daddy's letting him play instead of telling him to stop!!
People who call thei4 pets son or daughter, or their owners moms or dads, are the most annoying people on the planet.
😂😂😂😂
My favourite was when the dog put it's paw on him and he held the paw lovingly, acknowledging it's presence.
And the way the dog sat on the grass! So cute!😍
I love the way this man can focus and actually answer questions while all this is going on. He even reaches out for the dog at one point.
Can’t really tell who is cuter- the dog or our president 😂
why is he allowing his country to be destroyed by government tyranny?

@@jasonkiely4021 What's wrong with getting a dog? Also, the guy's big enough. He just can't because he's too busy focusing on giving a speech, so he has to try his best to ignore it.

“fur dad”....

He's like a less fit Teddy Roosevelt in that regards.
Teddy gives speech after getting shot.
Irish president gets nibbled on keeps giving speech.

Obviously petting and loving his dog is part of the President’s autonomic nervous system, whilst giving an interview takes in the moment thought. This guy is a dog lover! 🥳🐾
I had a friend who would sit in the back of the store and pat her son's dog, who was dropped off there several days a week, on the head while she was watching TV. It became a reflex action; her hand would be moving even when the dog wasn't there, as though she were petting an invisible dog!

Dogs are a good judge of character. He loves his human dad. My dad just passed a few days ago. When I saw this it lifted my spirits. He loved dogs and would have enjoyed seeing this. I miss him so bad already.
The dog is cute and everything
But is nobody gonna talk about the fact that Ireland’s President looks like Danny DeVito playing Bernie Sanders?
PERFECT!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Nicceee!
yeah, theres a picture of him meeting bernie and its very funny because they just look like different height versions of eachother
Even though he’s older than both
He absolutely is and we love him for it :D one of those presidents who has a lot of real world experience and passion for what he does.
What is most telling, aside from the president’s composure and focus, is his loving tolerance for his buddy’s natural doggo behavior. Not one of his moves shows any annoyance whatsoever; no attempt to push him away or scold him. And clearly the doggo is used to chopping on his hand. I have an Australian Cattle Dog that does the same and attempts to lead me to what he wants - which is usually outside to throw the frisbee for him. LOL
🥺❤great observation 👍
Did you already throw the frisbee today?
@@immanuelrundel6643 ~LOL Well, it was 2am here when you wrote this and now it’s 8am here as I write, so not yet. But, sometime between 3pm and 5pm, I will take both my dogs out to their favorite big field (owned by a local farmer that allows me) to let them run without leashes and I’ll throw the frisbee for him and a ball for his black lab sister (she’s just not interested in the frisbee) and we’ll all get our exercise for the day. This happens rain or shine because I love my dogs and they love me! Cheers
yes, I hate people who scold their dogs for no good reason or say it's "bad training". A healthy dog-human relationship means a dog can complain, otherwise the dog is more like a slave.
Yes the dog is clearly not at all interested in politics 🤭

I've watched those clips several times, couldn't quote a single word, but I know everything the cat does by heart. XD
Apparently, the actual interview showed the President only as far as the microphone and you couldn't tell that he was being eaten alive at the time.
Exactly, as I am always the one of “everyone “😂
But maybe that's he's plan....
Sweet dog telling he has a good friend in his life
And while he’s talking to the press - he’s mind melding with his doggy “ yes, yes, we’ll be off to Hogwarts castle in two shakes of a shillelagh”
This just shows that how much this dog is loved. He is indeed a good human being.
Many a dictators also took good care of their dogs. Doesn't necessarily mean they're good people
No such thing.
He is a very great man for dogs
Growing up with 12 dogs in a farm I can confirm. You given so many belly rubs and head pats that it becomes a reflex that you don't even notice you are doing it anymore😂
I don't have 12 dogs but I have 1 needy Maltese and can confirm. ;)
That dog really loves him.
It takes a confident man who's on the short side to stand in front of a massive acorn with an enormous dog. I ❤ the mighty Michael D. Higgins so much!
If his dog loves him like that he's probably a kind man
Right? doggo is showing that much love.
That's just what I was thinking
Have you ever heard of that hitler guy?
It just means he feeds it and plays with it. Dogs love their owners no matter what you could even be a serial killer and your love will die fighting for you
Exactly
When I saw this I thought, “ he looks like a college professor”. Looked him up and he was! I hope he’s a good President because he sure looks like a kind soul.
He actually really is a good president and person in general. We are quite lucky to have him.
He acts like a professor too.
