Should you be wondering what the British reaction is to Donald Trump

Should you be wondering what the British reaction is to Donald Trump’s election and performance to date, rest assured that many Brexit voters see a kindred spirit in those that wish to break free from the elitist shackles. Many supporters of Brexit saw Trump’s election as a continuation of the revolution in politics that has begun sweeping the globe. In fact, many Brexiteers worried that a Clinton victory would have implications that could force to the UK to stay in the EU (Globalist do tend to stick together and as Obama stated “Britain would be at the back of the queue (for trade deals”)).

But for many Brits, there is still an element of worry that the battles are not yet over.

There are some obvious parallels between the two political earthquakes of 2016 (The Donald & Brexit). Some are quite apparent, such as the anti-establishment element, the appalling media scaremongering, and the elite’s sheer shock at the final results. But other similarities are more subtle. And it is in the subtleties that we can see the seeds of outright treachery.

What has happened in Brexit, and is now happening in the aftermath Donald Trump’s stunning victory, is not organic protesting or naturally occurring reactions. Everything that is seen as a “response” is in fact not; it was planned and prepared in advance as a failsafe system.

I always assume the standard British reaction to everything is “let’s commit suicide”.

Europe has some hard decisions to make. I hope that they choose wisely.

Since when do people choose wisely?

The people want Barabbas. The people always want Barabbas.

British Taxpayers Footed the Bills so that Islamist Salman Abedi Could Blow Up Their Children
GP ^ | May 26,2017 | Jim Hoft / FR Posted by Hojczyk

The Brit Telgraph reported: Salman Abedi is understood to have received thousands of pounds in state funding in the run up to Monday’s atrocity even while he was overseas receiving bomb-making training.

Police are investigating Abedi’s finances, including how he paid for frequent trips to Libya where he is thought to have been taught to make bombs at a jihadist training camp.

[…] One former detective said Islamic jihadists were enrolling on university courses to collect the student loans “often with no intention of turning up”.

Abedi was given at least £7,000 from the taxpayer-funded Student Loans Company after beginning a business administration degree at Salford University in October 2015.

It is thought he received a further £7,000 in the 2016 academic year even though by then he had already dropped out of the course. Salford University declined to say if it had informed the Student Loans Company that Abedi’s funding should have been stopped. (Excerpt) Read more at thegatewaypundit.com ...

I used to visit an English forum prior to the election.

They all hated Trump.

I left.

Who cares what a bunch of tea swilling , bad denatured Brits think. England is circling the drain. Ten years, fifteen tops and the whole Royal Family will be beheaded on the steps of Buckingham Palace.

“an element of worry that the battles are not yet over.”
To make an analog; Trumps election and Brexit was like The Battle of Midway and The Battle of Britain. Great Victories but we are in for a long war.

I’ll stick to a truncated headline: “Should you be wondering what the British reaction is...”

Yeh, I wonder about the British reaction to the slaughter of little girls in Manchester.

The proper reaction by men is to see the Manchester police chief and his assh*ole cops swinging from lampposts.

The secondary reaction should be mosques burned to the ground with the mooslim pricks burned alive inside.

The third reaction is to raid and empty every damn armory in England and start hunting down and killing every politically correct squish in England.

If you read English papers and watched BBC TV and radio and ITV television you would not ask that. In my estimation, British group think is sort of Bernie-ish. Individuals, not so much.

Trumps visit with the G7 leaders pretty much evidenced the EU Third World states reaction .... they sh!t themselves. They’ve been communist/NWO and have gotten their way with His Arrogance for the last 8 years and finally have run into someone that doesn’t worship the ground that they walk on.

Even Dr. Who had to do a small dig at the Prez.

Bill said she wouldn’t vote for him because he’s orange.

Those quirky Brits.

I still enjoy Dr. Who all said and done.

Seeing Missy back in the mix should be interesting.
