DUP vs Ulster Unionists on Trump | Belfast News

DUP leader Gavin Robinson dismisses Donald Trump’s pro-united Ireland remarks as a distracting “dead cat strategy,” insisting his party stays independent and “paddles its own canoe.” Meanwhile, Ulster Unionist Party leader Jon Burrows condemns past unionist support for Trump as a “strategic error,” calling his statements erratic and politically opportunistic. Both leaders warn against over-reliance on Trump, with Robinson accusing Sinn Féin of using boycotts for political gain and Burrows urging Northern Ireland to focus on securing its place within the UK — as Trump’s influence on the region’s future remains nonexistent.
