Britains decision to quit the European Union could send damaging shockwaves through the bedrock Anglo-American special relationship, raising questions about Londons willingness and ability to back U.S.-led efforts in global crises ranging from the Middle East to Ukraine.
The loss of the strongest pro-U.S. voice within the 28-nation bloc, as a result of the Brexit referendum, threatens to weaken Washingtons influence in European policymaking and embolden Russian President Vladimir Putin to further challenge the West, analysts and former diplomats say.
The British referendum on Thursday, widely seen as reflecting an increasingly nationalistic and inward-looking public, also risks the splintering of the United Kingdom itself, which could further reduce its role and stature in world affairs

Bull****.
Bullarkey! After Trump’s election, the partnership will immediately begin a swift recovery.
Of course the opposite it true.
Which Obama-cronie gave the background for this bilge?
Nah, you got a black guy with a Colonial Victim Mentality who as SUPER anti-British from the word GO and will now use THIS as a whipping-boy for ANYTHING wrong between our countries.
AND in the world economy at large going forward.
He is going to trundle this out as a narrative A MILLION TIMES in the remainder of his term.
Obama threatens it reuters you purposeful idiots.
Hey United Kingdom imma let you finish but America had one of the greatest #Brexit's of ALL TIME
Only until Trump is sworn in.
If Obonzo throwing the Churchill’s bust back at them didn’t do it, nothing will.
No, it doesn’t.
Only in Obama’s skull.
Oh for Gawd’s sakes, this is quite simply the stupidest assertion ever made in the history of mankind.
“Obama’s detailed and brilliant plans for the world economy were ALL SET for take-off, but for the RASH, PETULANT, SELFISH BRITISH..!!!!!!!”
Oh man, it was going to BE GREAT..!
We were all going to be RICH..!!!!!
But oh, no..! Now the big banks are going to go bust..!!”
< eyeroll > Maybe with Ebola in charge, both because he admires wussiness, and because he's pro EU and pro-globalist, but his ride is coming to an end. Any normal person in charge, this is going to RAISE the UK's stock in their mind.
This is true, if global-cabal-puppet Hillary is elected.
BS! Cameron’s replacement as Conservative party leader will be a euroskeptic which will piss off the EU and probaby make the leave process more firey than it might have been, but this will be happening simultaneously with Trump’s campaign on very similar themes in the US and everyone will conflate the two nations situation. Trump will naturally reach out to the new leader and I believe he will bond more tightly than any US President has with any UK leader since Thatcher.

The elites sabotaged our economy in the lead up to 2007 and 2008. Expect the same for our friends in the UK. I just hope they understand why it is happening. In the long run they will be better off without the heavy-handed Brussels government and having to pay for their undisciplined members like Greece.
It is past time to kick the world elites in the teeth. We need to elect Trump to enable us to support their good decision.
I was going to write BULL$HIT, but someone else already did.
I am confused, the only policy America has is anti America and Israel.
