For those interested in the minutiae ..... look at the leave / remain voting patters in NI. All the border counties IN, Belfast & Antrim OUT. I do not have a good feeling about this. Early days, but "here we go again" would be my instinctive feeling.

Read the tweet again. Trump is saying he is happy to be there.

I know he wrote he's happy. He's probably looking to buy the place.


What were they screaming? ;-)

I just want to let everyone know that Trump was in favor of the UK leaving the EU before the vote.

Hillary Clinton was in favor of the UK staying in the EU before the vote.

They voted to leave. Brexit won.

Telling.

Um..

We'll know ten years down the road if it was smart.

Today, every stock market that has opened is down.

The pound just dropped 11% in six hours against the EURO and almost that against the dollar.

How's your 401k?

Telling? Yes, that he's wrong about everything.

No he was right. He knew the tide and feeling of the people. The people voted to leave. It will hurt for a moment. But it will be better.

This sure throws a wrench into the NWO's global plan.

Hillary is pretty upset about it. She's a globalist Bilderberg elite as is Obama. Both are crying tonight.

It's prophetic for our up coming election in November. The People want change. They wanted their UK Nation back. Americans want our Nation back too.

It does have some chance of being better. If the EU implodes because of debt problems of Greece or Spain (or perhaps Italy) the UK exit could be a smart move. If not, the economic costs to the UK could be substantial.

The Brits had no exposure to euro default. They didn't change currency.

But if the EU blows up its bad for the Brits and us.

Marine Le Pen and Geert Wilders already calling for referenda in France and the Netherlands respectively. Future of the EU is at stake.

HaHaHaHa! Apparently you have no idea of Britain's financial power.

And the pound's drop in value is not a disaster. It makes their goods
much more competitive. I'll prolly spend more when I'm there in a few
weeks.
