Britain followed socialist practices for years, and it left them unable to handle leaving the EU in a way which wouldn't hurt them. Breaking away was the right move, but we're seeing how much damage the socialist agenda can cause. We can't let that happen here."
I would imagine Trump will go the opposite route, there's too much danger of that backfiring and throwing a positive light on the democratic socialist policies that kept the EU and the UK somewhat stable for so long.
I'd imagine he'd blame it on Obama's lack of leadership. "I'd totally make that deal. I'm a yooge deal maker. I'd go in there, and 'boom' --- deal."
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
