Conor McGregor seems to be once again throwing his hat in the ring for the Irish presidency here, though he's had trouble garnering support to do so in the past due to the requirements.

Quick, somebody go check on Rosie O'Donnell!!

A little bit of context on how McGregor (37) can get on the ballot:

To be eligible for election as President, you must be an Irish citizen who is 35 or older. You must be nominated either by:

  • At least 20 members of the Oireachtas

  • At least 4 local authorities

  • Former or retiring Presidents can nominate themselves

The deadline is September 24 at noon.

Currently, the presidency is held by left-wing politician and poet Michael Higgins, who won in a landslide in 2018.

Seriously, can we get a wellness check on Rosie?!?
