During a light-hearted moment, U.S. Vice President JD Vance greeted the Irish Taoiseach with a joke about his shamrock socks, humorously requesting support for his footwear choice in front of the President. This playful encounter, which included Vance showcasing his socks and a quip about 'sock diplomacy,' garnered laughter and applause from the audience, emphasizing a warm and friendly tone in U.S.-Irish relations.
I will say when we meet later in the Oval Office to the Taoiseach, the President is a very big fan of conservative dress and so if he notices these socks you have to defend me in the Oval Office and this is an important part of cementing the Irish American relationship.
I've learned something new about the use of socks.
