He’s a sheepdog for the globalists. The flock is allowed to wander, but not stray.

Sanders should fret about the fact that the more people see of him the more they’re convinced he’s a senile old goat.

Hillary is right behind him in the senility tag.

He’s worried? Why is he worried? The only thing this old fart should be worried is when to be relevant.

Barbie, Bernie, Bernie ... you have it all wrong.

Brexit benefitted from Obama, Hillary and other folks like yourself. Same as Trump.

You are what is wrong with America.

Don't "worry," Bernie, "the People" are just exercising a bit of their Creator-endowed liberty, and, remember, freedom is a good thing.

Every American and every British citizen who loves liberty should take this time and opportunity read, or reread, Edmund Burke's 1775 Speech on Conciliation with the Colonies, for it contains such detailed and marvelous documentation of the "spirit of liberty" of 1776 and 1776, which, in 2016, seems to be rekindled among the citizenry of both America and Britain.

Consider these brief excerpts:


"In this character of the Americans, a love of freedom is the predominating feature which marks and distinguishes the whole; and as an ardent is always a jealous affection, your Colonies become suspicious, restive, and untractable whenever they see the least attempt to wrest from them by force, or shuffle from them by chicane, what they think the only advantage worth living for. This fierce spirit of liberty is stronger in the English Colonies probably than in any other people of the earth, and this from a great variety of powerful causes; which, to understand the true temper of their minds and the direction which this spirit takes, it will not be amiss to lay open somewhat more largely.

"First, the people of the Colonies are descendants of Englishmen. England, Sir, is a nation which still, I hope, respects, and formerly adored, her freedom. The Colonists emigrated from you when this part of your character was most predominant; and they took this bias and direction the moment they parted from your hands. They are therefore not only devoted to liberty, but to liberty according to English ideas, and on English principles. Abstract liberty, like other mere abstractions, is not to be found. Liberty inheres in some sensible object; and every nation has formed to itself some favorite point, which by way of eminence becomes the criterion of their happiness. It happened, you know, Sir, that the great contests for freedom in this country were from the earliest times chiefly upon the question of taxing. Most of the contests in the ancient commonwealths turned primarily on the right of election of magistrates; or on the balance among the several orders of the state. The question of money was not with them so immediate. But in England it was otherwise. On this point of taxes the ablest pens, and most eloquent tongues, have been exercised; the greatest spirits have acted and suffered. In order to give the fullest satisfaction concerning the importance of this point, it was not only necessary for those who in argument defended the excellence of the English Constitution to insist on this privilege of granting money as a dry point of fact, and to prove that the right had been acknowledged in ancient parchments and blind usages to reside in a certain body called a House of Commons. They went much farther; they attempted to prove, and they succeeded, that in theory it ought to be so, from the particular nature of a House of Commons as an immediate representative of the people, whether the old records had delivered this oracle or not. They took infinite pains to inculcate, as a fundamental principle, that in all monarchies the people must in effect themselves, mediately or immediately, possess the power of granting their own money, or no shadow of liberty can subsist."
- Edmund Burke, "Speech on Conciliation. . . ."

He’s probably more worried that Britain will benefit in a
capitalistic way from Brexit but that’s more of a long term
concern for the old socialist.

Looks like it. Guess he’s not worried about Hillary’s Wall Street connections anymore. Too bad his supporters will never figure that out.

When Trump announced his intention to visit Britain (or rather, Scotland), my thoughts were that this would be a distraction from the more important political business stateside.
How wrong I was! He landed and stepped out of his helicopter on Friday 24th June, just at the right moment to congratulate the British for their BRexit result.
His judgement and timing, perfect!
