Milbank: Comes now Don Jr. to instruct England on democracy
Britain is in turmoil as the Brexit deadline approaches. But fortunately, that nation now benefits from the services of one of the great intellects of our time, swooping in at the last minute to offer sage advice.
This great thinker is none other than Donald Trump Jr., who most recently distinguished himself with a tweet spelling the initials of Saturday Night Live as S&L.
Prime Minister Theresa May ignored advice from my father, Trump Jr. scolded in an op-ed published by Britains right-wing Telegraph newspaper on Tuesday, and ultimately, a process that should have taken only a few short months has become a years-long stalemate.
Trump Jr. did not specify what the presidents advice was, but the prime minister is on record saying, with evident mirth, He told me I should sue the European Union.
Trump the Younger went on to inform the land of the Magna Carta, John Locke and Oliver Cromwell that, in his expert view, democracy in the U.K. is all but dead.
This intervention by the young American, dubbed Fredo by Trump campaign colleagues for frequently displaying a deficit of business acumen and political skill, gives new meaning to the special relationship between the United States and Britain. Junior is, well, special.
