I told May how to do Brexit but she wrecked it - the US trade deal is off, says Donald Trump
2018-07-13
[THESUN.CO.UK] THERESA May’s new soft Brexit blueprint would "kill" any future trade deal with the United States, Donald Trump
...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States...
warns today.

Mounting an extraordinary attack on the PM’s exit negotiation, the President also reveals she has ignored his advice on how to toughen up the troubled talks.

Instead he believes Mrs May has gone "the opposite way", and he thinks the results have been "very unfortunate".

His fiercest criticism came over the centrepiece of the PM’s new Brexit plan ‐ which was unveiled in full yesterday.

It would stick to a common ­rulebook with Brussels on goods and agricultural produce in a bid to keep customs borders open with the EU.

But Mr Trump told The Sun: "If they do a deal like that, we would be dealing with the European Union
...the successor to the Holy Roman Empire, only without the Hapsburgs and the nifty uniforms and the dancing...
instead of dealing with the UK, so it will probably kill the deal.

#8  g(r)om: not to be pedantic (heaven forfend) but I suspect you are confusing "tumbril" (a cart used for hauling condemned prisoners to the guillotine) with "tumbler".

#7  BP, I prefer SF myself (though not trashy - thrash is what SJW write since there no honest pulpers left). But I've read two Reacher books recently - birthday gift. In one he puts somebody who annoyed him into a laundry drying tumbril.

#6  @Grom,

#4  Treason May needs a trip in a tumbril for ingoring the democratic mandate the people instructed her to perform.

Post democratic leaders need to leave office in the same way pre-democratic leaders have. Only democratic leaders should have one last trip home in a government limo. non-democratic leaders just have one last trip.

#1  It would stick to a common ­rulebook with Brussels

So Brussels will still be running the show and rules on "maximum banana curvature" and similar crap will still be followed? What the hell kind of "exit" is that? Apparently the "non-exit" kind.
