    I remember watching Brexit happen from the US, and thinking “Ha, we’d never do something that stupid.”

    Then 2016 happened.

      There was a great joke going around near brexit, that the US and UK were in a competition to ruin their countries. The UK really pulled ahead with brexit, but the us had a trump card.
