FULL TITLE: TRUMP'S BREXIT BLAST I told May how to do Brexit but she wrecked it — the US trade deal is off, says Donald Trump
In a world-exclusive interview with The Sun, the US President said Theresa May had ignored his advice by opting for a soft Brexit strategy
DONALD Trump today accuses the PM of wrecking Brexit — and warns she may have killed off any chance of a vital US trade deal.

Talk about fake news. The Sun us the UK’s CNN.
To paraphrase a British commentator on this, the problems with Brexit per May were:
We’ll leave but we’ll stay in a trade union where you make the rules and we can’t vote. You can punish us and we have to obey. And that’s the starting bid.
In this EU trade deal, not only does anything shipped to the EU have to meet EU regulations, anything made for British domestic consumption or IMPORTED TO THE UK have to meet EU rules. US goods sold to the UK now have to meet EU standards.
It’s time for the Brits to decorate a few lampposts.
That is true.
