"We had a great chat with Tucker Carlson highlighting the issues Ireland is facing, Ireland's plight, Ireland's fight and also Ireland's delight. It's not all doom and gloom and we want to keep a positive outlook and move incrementally, step by step, to a better Ireland. I spoke from my heart and we'll see how it goes. [I hope it is] absorbed by the Irish public. [Carlson had] a great listening ear."
