Epic Insults Greet Trump in Scotland

Donald Trump appeared at his new Scottish Golf Resort called "Turnberry" on the morning of the Brexit fiasco. At a press conference, reporters urged him to give insights into the world implications of the historic vote in Britain, but The Donald mainly wanted to sell hotel space to people taking advantage of the falling pound. He came across like a clueless used car salesman talking to the local Elk's Club instead of a possible world leader. History? What history?




Also, Scotland wasn't exactly happy to see Trump either. One local put up a Mexican flag which could be seen from the golf course. A comedian showed up with a box full of golf balls painted with swastikas, and was led away by security.





Trump made a gaffe about Brexit as soon as his plane landed that morning - implying that Scotland was celebrating, or as he put it "going wild" over leaving the European Union. The problem is, Scotland voted as a whole to REMAIN. And believe me, Twitter let him know just how wrong he was with some of the best insults the world has ever seen!

England's Historic #Brexit Shakes Up the World

Britain voted on a referendum to either leave the European Union of nations or remain part of the network. The conventional wisdom was that England would never vote to leave, yet that's exactly what happened yesterday, sending shockwaves around the world as the pound sterling decreased in value overnight, and markets responded to the new uncertainty by falling around the globe.

Perhaps the most disturbing part of the Brexit were those who admitted on the news that they though their "protest votes" to leave wouldn't matter, that London would vote to remain and that would save the empire - or something like that. In effect, the voters sounded ignorant and regretful that their votes mattered.

Brexit is a cautionary tale for the world - elections have consequences.
