Some white dust on the table, maybe candy from his kids? Does he even see those kids?

His kids probably get into his leftover coke thinking it’s candy.

“Conor McGregor is going to run for the president of Ireland,” Sonnen said. “Conor McGregor is going to return to the UFC. Those are both ridiculous statements founded on no bed of truth or support. Those are both statements that are co-signed, supported and backed up by a grand total of no one. But does that make them untrue? Does it make one of them less true?

“The idea of Conor going into politics, of what he knows nothing about, isn’t the disqualifier from politics. I know lots of politicians that don’t have any idea what politics are about. I know a number of people that would like to stop those kinds of politicians and can’t and they don’t get it when the election’s over they go, ‘He doesn’t even know what it’s about?’ It doesn’t always work against you.’ If you’ve got a nice smile and an ability to stand in front of your local news with a message, you’ve got a very good likelihood or at least a better so likelihood of getting elected into politics than the expert that knows everything about them, but pees his pants when he talks onstage in front of people.”

Another question Sonnen asked is if McGregor’s political ambitions could be tied to his reluctance to step back into the octagon or the UFC’s inability to strike a deal with the longtime box-office draw. Sonnen believes the circumstances will have to be just right for McGregor to make that walk to the cage again.

“I don’t think that Conor has the grit to bite down one more time, to prepare his body for a worse case, which is to have to defend itself against unarmed attack at all times and in his spot, main event, that’s up for 25 minutes,” Sonnen said. “That is a ridiculous thing to ask any human to do. And when the UFC is scratching their head and scratching their head and banging their head on the wall and they can’t figure out what they’re doing wrong and why they can’t get Conor to sign, they can change that one thing. They can make it three five-minute rounds and your likelihood just by the numbers of getting Conor to put his name on the paper will go up 70 percent.

“The UFC did not get Khabib to go do fight No. 30 and to this day this is because they did not have enough commas and zeros, when in fact the number they needed to change was the weight class of 155 is what got you the ‘no.’ If you would have made it 170, you’d have got Khabib to 30-0. Numbers matter. Conor, two jobs, president and cagefighter. Which one is less likely?”

Politics is a popularity contest, I think he has some understanding of that

Maybe he should be a running mate, not aim for top spot, but yeah, as much as he is a coke binged fool, Ireland needs at the very least his MESSAGE.

His name used to be Conor McGreberg before a typo error got in the way.
