Irish newspaper wins the internet with their description of Trump as a ‘west Clare hotelier’

This Irish newspaper has just earned themselves a gold star for their coverage of the presidential campaign - winning hearts with their article breaking the news that 'West Clare hotelier' Donald Trump had lost the election.  Notorious for many reasons, Donald Trump is generally referred to under three main job titles: former President of the United States, businessman or TV personality. Credit where credit is due though and one Irish newspaper has won the internet over with their description of the US mogul as a "West Clare hotelier". Reporting on the news that the votes had been counted and Trump had, in fact, lost the election (despite claims that he won "by a lot!"), the Clare Echo published an article with the headline: "West Clare hotelier loses out in US Presidential election." A thoroughly accurate description, the article quickly went viral online with one onlooker joking: "We do bring them down to size in Clare." https://twitter.com/Aileenbelle59/status/1325410103080652800 https://twitter.com/SkyEnda/status/1325189558628184064 https://twitter.com/MolloyMichelle/status/1325181449960501249 https://twitter.com/HalliganCaoimhe/status/1325156227211530240 Even grabbing the attention of fellow journalists across the pond, John Cassidy - a writer at The New Yorker - retweeted the article, describing it as "top Irish wit". https://twitter.com/JohnCassidy/status/1325157845453598720 Commending the team for "finding the local angle", I think it's fair to say that the Clare Echo deserves a round of applause for that one. https://twitter.com/holydvnnunescow/status/1325220648797442048 https://twitter.com/Unacarney/status/1325392392510431232
