Brexit - Why is ISIS and Trump celebrating the vote to exit?

and why would ANY liberal be happy about it?

This was NOT a jab at elite globalists by the working class... at best they have replaced some elites with a different set of elites.

Not to mention that 70 percent (that's right - 70) of people under 32 wanted to remain in the EU.

He's ALWAYS on the wrong foot. ALWAYS.


These old people of which you speak who voted LEAVE are tired of people who aren't pink and fair and blue eyed living in "their" green and pleasant land. That was for anyone skim-reading who didn't take my tone.

Racism sucks, but it's at our door. They think that keeping those "others" out will solve their problems. It won't.

The press got screwed by him today, they followed him out to that god forsaken place and then got an ear full of promotion of his god damn golf course.

Michael Forbes poses for a photograph beside the Mexican flag he erected alongside Donald Trump's International Golf Links course, north of Aberdeen on the East coast of Scotland, on June 21.

Milne said he has no plans to demonstrate against Trump when he arrives at his golf course on Saturday, but he and several of his fellow Menie Estate residents have already raised a banner of protest: a Mexican flag on each of their properties in the line of sight of Trump's course.
Milne called the flag on his property "a subtle little message to Trump to remind him that we are still here" and described it as an act of solidarity with the Mexican people and others who have faced Trump's insults during the campaign.
The residents of Menie Estate aren't the only ones in the U.K. less than thrilled about Trump's visit -- or the only ones to bring back memories of Trump's thorny relationship with the British people.
In January, members of Parliament debated a motion to bar the billionaire businessman from the country after nearly 600,000 people signed a petition calling for a ban in the wake of Trump's proposal to keep all foreign Muslims out of the United States.
The MPs ultimately didn't vote on whether or not to ban Trump, but they took turns bashing the brash billionaire during several hours of debate.
They slammed Trump's "words of prejudice," called him "a ridiculous xenophobe" and described his controversial candidacy as an exercise in "buffoonery."

and only Drumpf. He could care less about the Presidency, as long as he can engage in shameless self-promotion and maybe parlay into yet another failed business venture from this. The only thing he really knows is that there is no shortage of stupid people willing to invest in any number of his asinine ideas.
