Fox News just called it for Donald Trump (Brexit)

[brettdale]

Saying this is huge, and he will surge in the polls.

they said

"The voters of Britain have rejected President Obama's policies"

1. Well I doubt anyone expected Fox to call it for HRC.

Just saying.

4. Seems like you misspelled your name,

and you may be in the wrong place.

6. You may be onto something there

And I think the pool has already started...

3. Crashing markets will help elect Trump, how, exactly...?

I think Faux has got it all ass-backwards, but then they almost always do.

5. I know, right?

Trump is for this type of nationalist policy.

9. Hitler was elected thanks to a worldwide depression.

If the stock market tanks Trump will be elected. People are morons and they will cling to the first asshole who points the blame at immigrants and foreigners.

16. ^ What this poster says ^

Sad but true.

8. I'm not seeing a trump victory out of this

It's going to be a big mess and by the time our election rolls around, it's going to look pretty chaotic
Nothing will be settled

10. The actual exit will take two years.

I think there will be a shakeup of the U.S. markets for the next few weeks and then they will stabilize. The process of decoupling Britain from the EU will be long and complex and will be disruptive for Britain, but much less so for us. Those who voted in favor of it will soon see some unintended consequences and might regret their votes, and we in the US will see those problems developing as well. I hardly think the complications that will ensue are going to favor Trump.

14. Right

It won't happen overnight and every few weeks something will derail moving forward in unexpected ways.

11. The one thing Brexit has NOTHING to do with

is Obama's policies.

It was a mistake for Obama to go there and give his opinion - it did more harm than good, IMO. But I can tell you nobody was thinking about Obama or his policies when they chose their stance on Brexit.

The election is far enough away and Brexit is a multi-year process so there wil be a short-term minor dip in financial markets and we'll recover from that (and more) long before people are going to the polls.

12. Hopefully Britain will pay its mistake cash soon, with egg on Trump's face

[Renew Deal]

13. Most Americans won't care about European politics.

[RAFisher]

15. Murdoch favored Brexit so I'm not surprised by Fox's bullshit

Obama was speaking on behave of US interests. Fox is just speaking on behalf of Murdoch.
