Obama really wanted the UK to stay in the European Union to help keep globalization going. Everything Obama touches turns to shit. In April, he wrote an article for the UK Telegraph basically begging the Brits to stay with the European Union. What happened tonight was a historic failure for globalization, progressives (Democrats and Republicans), George Soros, Hillary Clinton and Anjem-Choudary. In other words, today was a good day.

As citizens of the United Kingdom take stock of their relationship with the EU, you should be proud that the EU has helped spread British values and practices – democracy, the rule of law, open markets – across the continent and to its periphery. The European Union doesn’t moderate British influence – it magnifies it. A strong Europe is not a threat to Britain’s global leadership; it enhances Britain’s global leadership. The United States sees how your powerful voice in Europe ensures that Europe takes a strong stance in the world, and keeps the EU open, outward looking, and closely linked to its allies on the other side of the Atlantic. So the US and the world need your outsized influence to continue – including within Europe.
In this complicated, connected world, the challenges facing the EU – migration, economic inequality, the threats of terrorism and climate change – are the same challenges facing the United States and other nations. And in today’s world, even as we all cherish our sovereignty, the nations who wield their influence most effectively are the nations that do it through the collective action that today’s challenges demand.
I wonder if Obama will come out tomorrow and call the Brits racist for not voting in a way that he approved. Well done Brits. I’ll now forgive you for Piers Morgan.
