In a historic referendum, Britain has voted to leave the European Union. Global markets were sent into a tailspin; the British PM resigned; and Donald Trump celebrated.
Donald took a victory lap after the Orlando massacre, so it’s no surprise he’s gloating over Brexit.

See stock market after Brexit vote? Multiply that by 3x if Trump got elected. Instant recession/depression worldwide. Not havin' it… ;-[

Trump thinks #Brexit is 'fantastic'. Just confirms my long held assumption that this is one of the stupidest things that could've happened.

"Disqualifying" may be overused, but watching Trump in Scotland today, doesn't it apply? https://t.co/XkbLHt3Vsa pic.twitter.com/wXzat3T4bT

Anyone who thinks Trump 'won' on Brexit – will be the candidate voters will turn to during times of economic instability hasn't read a poll

If you're thinking of writing a piece that says Brexit happening means Trump has a chance of winning.
Don't.

Oh please, Trump had no clue what the Brexit was last month.

If Trump thinks it was a good decision then you can be sure it was 100% the wrong move. #Brexit Big mistake, huge.

When Donald Trump tells you that you made a "great decision", that's when you go back and do exactly the opposite. But too late now. #Brexit

If you think #Brexit is a good idea, remember: Trump is for it.

Trump earlier today in Scotland "Brexit, a great thing", well thanks for that insightful and informative opinion sir #dangerous nutter

What luck Trump's in Scotland to show his preparedness to speak on foreign policy/relations & the economy. His thought on #Brexit was "huh?"

Trump when asked about Brexit a few weeks ago: "Huh?" And "Hmm." https://t.co/lWf56ZFYQk

Have just worked up in US & am genuinely devastated. #Brexit I am even more scared as Trump thinks it's a good idea.

After Trump, Brexit and 3 years of LNP am starting to think the film Idiocracy was in fact a documentary not satire#auspol#VoteThemOut

@CNN The unseemly nature of Trump using Brexit for self promotion is a glimpse into the impulses of this man. @mikebarnicle

Donald Trump had a remarkable opportunity to appear presidential this morning. Instead, he's talking about drainage on a golf course.

Trump now walking through what par is on each hole on the golf course.

Trump segues from question on #brexit, which he doesn't know about, to things he does — money and himself.
