A lot of them were protesting in my favor -ROFL

Check out this incoherent psychobabble

<snip>

Donald Trump has discussed his private conversation with the Queen who, as well as being “beautiful inside and out”, he said thinks Brexit is “a very complex problem”.

Speaking to TV host Piers Morgan in an interview published by the Mail on Sunday ahead of broadcast on ITV, the US president repeated his claim that he had given the prime minister, Theresa May, an “option” to give the UK an advantage over the European Union in Brexit talks. He would not say what that option was.

He also said he had told May to get a “carve out” in any agreement with the EU, to make possible a trade deal with the US.

‘We would make a great deal with the United Kingdom because they have product that we like,” Trump said. “I mean they have a lot of great product. They make phenomenal things, you know, and you have different names – you can say ‘England’, you can say ‘UK’, you can say ‘United Kingdom’ … the fact is you make great product, you make great things. Even your farm product is so fantastic.”

Asked about mass protests against him in London on Friday, the day of the interview, Trump insisted: “‘Some of them are protesting in my favour, you know that? There are many, many protests in my favour.”

So why should we believe anything that he is reported to have told Piers Morgan? The bit about his belief that many many of the protesters were protesting FOR him is just ridiculous. It shows how completely his mind his filled with delusions.

And others, just not have a way.

I mean they have a lot of great product. They make phenomenal things, you know, and you have different names – you can say ‘England’, you can say ‘UK’, you can say ‘United Kingdom’ … the fact is you make great product, you make great things. Even your farm product is so fantastic.”

If you took out the word 'phenomenal', this would sound like something a third-grader would write in a report on England.

By the way 11 different protests await him in Helsinki including the big one linked to the Amnesty International Human Rights and Freedom Conference.

only they have even less than we do now. If Brexit goes through...people who now work all over Europe will lose their jobs.
