2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumAs expected Trump blamed Barack and Hillary for the Brexit vote!
What is ironic is he blamed them in Scotland where voters voted overwhelmingly to remain in the EU. Of course, Scotland voted to remain. They want to be part of the EU when they declare independence from England. Expect the same phenomenon to repeat itself in Northern Ireland where voters vote to remained in the EU.
Picking scabs off problems is painful.
In retrospect what looks like independence day will look like dissolution day for Great Britain.

Exactly. Because it fits his narrative of people taking their country back.

He said the Brits voted to leave the EU because President Obama asked them to stay.
