Pence also happens to have family connections to the tiny Irish village, surrounded by windswept Atlantic coastline and bogland. His great-grandmother was from there, and a distant cousin still owns Morrissey’s Pub in town.

How Donald Trump was able to buy this incredible part of the earth is a success story in itself. the Vice President dis himself a huge favor by staying there far away from the big city, Dublin where security would have cost far more than in Doonbeg where he has relatives.
The grandfather of Michael Pence, Richard Michael Cawley, who emigrated from County Sligo, came to Chicago in 1923, escaping poverty and the Irish civil war. He married Mary Elizabeth Maloney, whose family came from Doonbeg.
The vice president has spoken fondly of visiting Ireland in the past, including Doonbeg, where he helped pull pints at his family’s pub. During a visit there as a young man, Pence once recalled a “little old lady” who told him “you’ve got a face like the map of Ireland.”
Going to Doonbeg made perfect sense.
