British Politician Nigel Farage Credits Pompous Obama For Helping Brexit Succeed…
Conservative Treehouse ^ | 6/24/2016 | Sundance

Posted on 06/24/2016 1:15:51 PM PDT by GilGil

Appearing on Breitbart Radio Nigel Farage tells Stephen K. Bannon that President Obama’s visit to the UK (telling the people to vote Remain) offended a lot of British and backfired on the Remain campaign...

Just put on that idiot Chuck Todd. He and Andrea Mitchell are having a nervous breakdown. She’s upset about the anti-intellectualism of the average British voter! I guess she thinks of herself as an intellectual?

I’m sure she reads Tolstoy every night and not the latest hot flash updates from AARP.

They just don’t get it. They don’t see the tsumami coming their way.

I remember distinctly when Trump first announced Chuck Todd saying that Trump would never be the nominee because he was just not a serious candidate.

Obama has done very little good in his malignant and parasitic lifetime. Pushing for the UK to stay in the EU is his one good deed, even if it was inadvertent.

Dear God, he’s dumb. With his dyed beard and hair which he combs down over his forehead to hide his amazingly receding hairline.

The beard is kind of red - could he be a jihadi??

It's really a shock. It breaks his perfect record.

He goes to Copenhagen and wins the Olympic Games for Chicago.
He goes to Cairo and persuades the Muslim world to end terrorism.
He goes to England and fails to persuade the Brits to remain subject to Brussels.

I don't understand it. Must be racism.

If you did not read the voluminous research threads pretty much in their entirety, as the research unfolded, you are really missing out.

The Dunhams and 0bola have no relationship by blood at all.

I read all the research threads and the evidence (not all of which was posted on the threads btw) is absolutely conclusive.

So many commentators are saying Obummer did not cause a backlash.

Email from a Brit friend in London proves otherwise:

“In the last 100 years we have stood in defence of the onslaught of factions within Europe who had aspirations of dominating not only Europe but the World.
In spite of the threats from others around the World who stated that we were insane to consider breaking away from Europe and committing economic Armageddon - the British public have decided: WE DO NOT LIKE BEING PREACHED TO BY OTHERS who claim to know what is good for us.
Please remind your President to keep his thoughts to himself - we value our relationship with the people of America having a common language and ideals but we do not take kindly to be dictated to by others.
The next two years will be difficult, but the British have always been resourceful and we will demonstrate yet again our fortitude to win through again in spite of all the doomsayers who claim will will be a third rate country within five years.
We built an Empire once, economically we will do it again without European Union of unbridled corruption and petty bureaucracy.”

Put him on the campaign trail for Hillary, please... please do it.

She's not going to let him go off script, like he's been doing lately.

She's going to try to use him in a very controlled fashion to appeal to constituencies where he still has a following.

He won't like it. There could be fireworks.

Prior to the vote the polling was generally in stays favor, 1 poll did show exit winning by a few points... turns out that one, was the one closest to the real results, but polling in the UK is not like it is in the US, surprises happen often...

shortly after polls closed, one of the leave PM’s basically conceded that Stay was going to win....

Then the actual vote counts finally started coming in, and it was obvious from the start, the polls were off. The numbers trickled in slowly, very very slowly, but from the start the exit was outperforming expectations and stay underperforming.... Of course with the breakdown of the nation and the regions of support, with small numbers counted it wasn’t sure if it meant anything... London area districts would certainly go REMAIN by large margins... as would Ireland and Scottish regions.. and they weren’t in yet....

If this continued it was obvious, even if STAY won, it was probably not going to win big... which that in and of itself would have HUGE implications.

The result continued to trickle in, with Stay and Leave changing the lead here and there, but neither side really pulling to a solid sustained lead.... then exit for the most part started to sustain a lead... it would grow for a while, and then shrink dramatically when a heavily pro stay district reported... but Remain never could quite manage to get enough any more to take back the lead....

Still nothing was certain, one big district coming in at 2 to 1 (which they typically did) could wipe 75 or 100k lead instantly. Still it was becoming obvious, that even if BRexit failed, it would only be slightly... which would have major political ramifications across the EU and Europe.

Slowly the lead for exit grew... 100k in the lead... 200k in the lead... 300k in the lead... a big pro stay would come in an the lead would drop... but now it was never getting closer than 100k ... and again and again... until EXIT was holding a solid and consistent 300k or more lead.... occasionally a big district would eat it downa bit but it just kept growing... less and less of the districts were outstanding.... It was becoming obvious the lead was getting to a size where it would not be overcome.

Until finally at about 11:30 eastern time, the news organizations started to call it BRexit had won.

Final results Brexit by 1.2 Million or so votes.

http://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/2016-brexit-referendum/

The breakdown of the vote in term of which side won where, was pretty predictible... Scotland and Ireland solidly vote to stay.... London and Oxford area, solidly stay... but in most of the rest of the country, where LEAVE won... it won far stronger than any of the elites/pundits/globalists believed were possible and as such were able to not be overwhelmed by the 2 to 1 exit votes in the pro stay areas.

Shock and Awe blasted its way across the globe, as the Globalist Elites faced a reality none of them believed could be possible. Yet there was no denying it... Britain had voted to leave the EU.

Your post is beautifully done. Thank you.

I was sooooo depressed this morning thinking the globalists won, and as I said, had no internet until late this afternoon. I walked over to my wife who was sitting in a camping chair by our tent and showed her the big bold Drudge headline.

We were both ecstatic. And the funny thing is, neither one of us are British or in any way connected.

Something else I want to mention in this post: a leftist Brit woman I used to work with and remain friend-connected on Facebook (though we don’t even say hello anymore), posted words to this effect a week ago:

It is criminal that the British government allowed this vote to happen.

That’s right, folks. In the minds of the left, common people having the right to vote is a crime.

When you depart next year please leave our country for which you hold so much disdain. I suggest you purchase a house in a city in one of those countries which you hold in such high regard such as Tehran, Jakarta, Ramallah or Cuba!

Personally, I think his father is the pornographer communist Franklin Marshall Davis. Your description of the mother I have no quibble with.
