Donald Trump says Boris Johnson would be 'excellent' Tory leader - BBC News

His mother was Scottish, so he's technically only half-foreign.

I believe in democracy. Thats why every few years we have democratic votes to decide who should represent us in various levels of government.

Sounds like sabotage and treason. The true democratic defenders of the folk demand an Enabling Act.

[WTFH]

Trump can't deliver a US-UK trade deal without approval from Congress and as far as they're concerned the UK is at the back of the queue.

That's a lie, you're a scaremonger, etc.

Rinse and repeat.

So you listen to Obama and not Trump.

There again, you don't believe in democracy anyway.

Breaching the GFA.

We're not allowed to talk about that, remember?

There must be lots of solutions to it, but none that anyone can think of.

It's the only plan that seems half sensible for Tory Scum - use tariffs as proxy for VAT increase (but without breaking manifesto promise), cut VAT a bit, income tax a bit and declare they've won.

You mean Obama argued that he had a right to respond to the claims of Brexit campaigners that Britain would easily be able to negotiate a fresh trade deal with the US. “They are voicing an opinion about what the United States is going to do, I figured you might want to hear from the president of the United States what I think the United States is going to do.“And on that matter, for example, I think it’s fair to say that maybe some point down the line there might be a UK-US trade agreement, but it’s not going to happen any time soon because our focus is in negotiating with a big bloc, the European Union, to get a trade agreement done”.

So the Brexit campaigners were claiming that he would do something, and he said they were wrong.

Is that scaremongering, or responding to false claims made by known liars?

The truth scares liars.

Trump says lots of things. His idea of a trade deal is: lube up, here's what you're getting.
