Trump congratulates UK's Johnson after historic wins, hints at new trade deal
Fox News ^ | December 12 2019 | Adam Shaw

President Trump took to Twitter on Friday to congratulate U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson after Johnson and his Conservative Party won easily in the country’s general election, which was seen as a clear mandate to deliver on Brexit.

Johnson’s Conservative Party was on track early Friday to win an overwhelming parliamentary majority in Britain’s general election, as Labour Party strongholds across the country swung dramatically to the Tories -- and immediately led left-wing Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn to announce his intention to step down.

"Congratulations to Boris Johnson on his great WIN! Britain and the United States will now be free to strike a massive new Trade Deal after BREXIT," Trump said. "This deal has the potential to be far bigger and more lucrative than any deal that could be made with the E.U. Celebrate Boris!"

I’m sure there’s been a working draft of it around for awhile.

So as practical matter, should I hurry up my UK purchases or wait a bit?

“Enough” - when you poke a people around long enough, you rouse their righteous fury.

Democrats don’t know how furious we are. They will find out soon enough.

About time!

Just about immediately after Hussein was installed I couldn't get anything from the UK anymore. Jug ears blocked trade with them, claiming they were terrorists. Back then DVDs were still released here like movies and tv shows were in the 60's, if ya wanted any shows new or old ya hadda import them, or wait for 10 years of syndication before their release.

Yawn, all of this winning is exhausting. I need a rest to prepare for the next round of winning.

I'm kidding, I just got up. Good news for our cousins across the pond!

While in line Tuesday, inching our way toward the door for the Trump Rally in Hershey, PA I passed a display of Trump regalia among which was a tee shirt with the message: “Do you know what really sucks about all this winning? Not a damn thing!”

Steve Hilton was listing the attributes of Johnson last night and made him sound like Trump. He didn’t mention the odd hair they have in common, though.

What we need is a Five Eyes/ABCA Armies free trade agreement.

Boris is now in a position to take a good look at what British Intelligence was doing with respect to spying on Trump.

This may be making some Dems nervous.
