Donald Trump says he's cutting his trip to Ireland short because of a civil rape case against him in New York.
E Jean Carroll claims Mr. Trump raped her nearly three decades ago in a department store changing room.
The former US President spent the night at his golf resort in Clare, and is heading back to the US tonight.
"I have to leave Ireland and I've to leave Scotland where I have great properties. I have to leave early - I don't have to but I chose to."
When asked if he will attend the court he responded to reporters with:
"It's a disgrace that it's allowed to happen. False accusations against a rich guy. Or in my case - a famous, rich and political person."
