If Brexit loses today, that loss will be a strong indication Trump will lose. Voters hate change even when they are unhappy with the current state of affairs.
Americans can be a timid bunch, much like the British, preferring to be the frog in a pot of boiling water rather than leap from the pot to the unknown.
I am looking closely at this referendum by England to leave the EU. Who wins will telegraph our vote in November, in my opinion. England stays in the EU, it is Clinton. If they leave the EU, it will be Trump.

I think there is a lot of credibility in this post. I hope it doesn't go exactly like you said but I'm afraid you're right.
It could be that the British failure to get out will be the encouragement for Americans to get it right and elect Trump in a landslide. We have a history of doing what the British don't support. Being a sovereign independent nation is one of them. The British didn't know how bad it would be to join the EU.

Looks to me voters are being blind......if people think President Obama and Hillary are not changing things they have their heads in the sand. I think people wanting out of the EU are the exact same people voting for Trump........people who are wanting America to go back before President Bush.
If Hillary wins it just shows many American voters are ready for a Queen and next they will ask for a King.
I didn't say we will follow the British. We Americans have a similar mindset with the British.
I have voted out. I am 62 years old, with two nice pensions, arriving in my bank every month. I own my home, and have a good life. I would give it all up,and end on the streets to save my country.
We don't know the result of this election yet........ it is going to be a long night, But, the overwhelming population of the UK is the English. Yet, we could lose this vote on the result of how the Scots, Welsh, and Irish vote.
I only found out today, that 400,000 citizens of Ireland have a vote in this election. I am not talking about northern Ireland, which is a part of the UK, but independent country southern Ireland. Their citizens reside in the UK, and have a vote on this massive event affecting by a large majority, the English.
If we lose this vote, and end up remaining in the EU because of citizens of another country, Ireland, we will be very angry.
The Scottish, who last year narrowly decided to remain in the UK, are expected to vote remain in the EU. This nation, don't miss a chance to tell the English they don't like us much. They take English taxpayer money to help sustain their economy, but are not fond of us at all. This group, could end up helping to keep the UK in the EU.
We English are getting pretty fed up of this situation. If this vote is close making us remain in the EU, then it is not over, especially if the majority of the English vote out.

If I were English, I would be supremely annoyed that the Welsh and Scots have their own parliaments AND get to vote on matters that only concern England.
And I agree with you - the Scots are largely a country of welfare scroungers at this point.

bummer. i hope the English vote prevails.
sounds kind of like the situation we have where territories such as Puerto Rico don't pay federal personal income tax, but get to vote in our elections.
Good luck
