Trump team ‘learned value of cutting business tax from Ireland’

Senior economic advisor to Donald Trump, Stephen Moore has said: “We want to emulate Ireland. We want to be competitive with Ireland.”

Senior economic advisor to Donald Trump, Stephen Moore, has confirmed he expects US multinationals to leave Ireland and relocate back in the US.

Mr Moore, who sparked controversy with similar comments earlier this week, confirmed the new US administration would cut the US business tax from 35% to 15% to stimulate business investment - and said they learned that lesson from Ireland.
