@AaronDavid My god. This is it exactly.

@AaronDavid AltText: Screenshot of a post by Andy Ryan: I knew a guy in his late forties who was convinced his wife was the only thing stopping a debauched life sleeping with 20-year-olds. So he left her and found himself alone in a bedsit washing his pants in the sink. I've yet to think of a better analogy for Brexit.

@AaronDavid ...and the US is riiiight behind it.

@VeroniqueB99 Far right behind unfortunately

@AaronDavid Forwarded toot o'the day, right here

@AaronDavid The question is, though, did he realize he'd fucked up? Do the English realize they've fucked up? I know some do, but most of those opposed it from the beginning.

@noahm I was a staunch remainer but the less knowledgable believed a load of lies spouted by Johnson etc.

@AaronDavid wait for it until the second gen immigrants vote Froggy Face into power next election! Brexit will look like new years’ fireworks!

@noahm @AaronDavid More than you would expect who voted Brexit now think it was a bad idea, but there are still a depressing number of true believers who just think 'it wasn't done properly'.

This is despite repeated evidence that the right wing grifters who pushed Brexit, and are now trying to seize power, are full of shit.
