Unfortunately for the open-border, one-world government types like Obama, it reveals the disapproval of the direction the US has been headed in the past few years. Bad news indeed for the Leftists here.

The bad news is the negative impact on economies, which appears to be an end game for the right.

We'll be fine here as long as we correct the direction we've been steered in the past few years.
Nationalism is back and that's a wonderful thing!

Far happier than if they had stayed, I imagine.

And I though the Brits were lost in the world of no testicles. Well they have finally stood up and said no to the stupid EU and let in Muslims whole sale. Lets hope France and Germany are next. I hope to see a lot of that anger on election day here. Just say NO to skankles.

3. A distrust and an anger with the political establishment, who has taken the little people for granted while they feather their own nests and enjoy the high life,
4. The destruction of their countries democratic principles and practices in service of an over-wheening and far-removed centralized state that does not listen to their people or respect their culture.

Until a few hours ago, the loss of the "leave" campaign was regarded by the "experts" and the establishment as all but a done deal, because the entire establishment was all-in behind the "remain" campaign. And then the votes came in.

Fortunately, we have no similar political movement at the highest levels in this country, which is based pretty much around these same driving factors, which is being derided as "dangerous" by the powers that be (As the "leave" campaign in the UK was also. Their "Operation Fear" obviously did not work.) and which is being counted as a certain loser by these same people.

We don't, do we? {sarcasm}
People shouldn't be shocked in November when the numbers come in and Trump is leading the count

Brits will need more than luck, they may become a very small island.
No, they said it's not the topic of the day. Very different from "no one".

And it was in reply to you stating there were "endless threats" to secede. Showing examples of 2 politicians speaking is hardly that.
