Justin Smith Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 Personally I cannot believe that just when a narcissistic populist, who got the Presidency by promising to protect US jobs by introducing tariffs, is coming to power, the UK is, probably, leaving the biggest free trade area in the world. And there`s more, Trump has consistently said he`d cut back on the US involvement in NATO. During the Referendum campaign the Leave lobby were saying our security is based on NATO, not the EU. So what happens now ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin Smith Posted November 9, 2016 Author Share Posted November 9, 2016 It won't affect it and I think some people need to stop making prediction because they keep being wrong. What, like the prediction we could spend another £350 million a week on the NHS if we left the EU. Yes, you`re right, maybe people shouldn`t make predictions, particularly if they may affect the result of an important referendum. The latter having, in my opinion, an effect on the US presidency, which has resulted in us having a narcissistic egotistical populist as head of the most powerful country in the world. One minor positive of Trump`s election. After the EU Referendum I no longer regarded the US electorate as the stupidest in the world, but know, I can tell you all, they have resumed their crown.

Bottletop Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 So Brexit, and now Trump. In both cases it is/was reported we were all apparently shocked, not going to vote them in and none of us can believe the outcome. Yet the majority of the UK and US populations have voted in this way. Do you ever get the impression the press just has way too much sway these days in saying whatever they like? Either that or they no longer have their fingers on the right pulse of the public... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin-H Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 Trump said that the UK would get a trade deal with the US before the EU (in contrast to Obama's warning that we would be at the back of the queue). Don't get me wrong, I did not want Trump to win, but every cloud.. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-37594928 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
