Trump reiterates call for reunified Ireland, declines comment on Scotland

In short:

US President Donald Trump has reiterated his support for a unified Ireland but said he would not comment on a Scottish bid for independence.

Speaking to reporters at the Irish Open golf tournament, he also said he would give adult US citizens a $5000 'dividend' if the Republican Party keeps control of Congress after midterm elections.
