When Britain voted to exit the European Union in 2016, Donald Trump , then the Republican candidate for president, declared himself “Mr. Brexit .” Trump claimed solidarity with the nationalism, isolationism, and anti-immigrant fervor that drove Brexit eers and incorporated it into the America First platform he pursued after winning the 2016 presidential race.
It's like watching a laboratory experiment where the guinea pigs die. Yet Trump still sounds like Mr. Brexit, vowing that if he wins a second term, he will impose even more trade barriers, more isolation, and more go-it-aloneness than he did during his first term.Trump wants to add new tariffs of 10% on all imports to the United States while raising the China tariff by 60%.
Immigrants are easy bogeymen for pandering politicians. In the UK leading up to the 2016 Brexit referendum, many Brits felt resentful toward immigrants from poorer European nations who took advantage of Britain’s national health system and other government benefits. Keeping some migrants out would mean giving up the many benefits of belonging to the EU trade union, but a majority felt it would be worth the cost.
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Monday ruled for the first time that former presidents have broad immunity from prosecution, extending the delay in the Washington criminal case against Donald Trump on charges he plotted to overturn his 2020 presidential election loss and all but ending prospects the former president could be tried before the November election.
