* the infamous shit-for-heart-&-brains republican Draft-Dodger-in-Chief, evil-doer & serial liar Comrade Casino. This is the gilded assclown the republicans send out to represent the USA when our friend and ally is in pain? No dignity. No honor. No class. Deplorable.

Communicate with people you know in other countries. Help to reassure them.

All of my family live in the British Isles; they actually feel sorry for me/us.

I have a dual citizenship - and I think that before long, I'll be making that move.

if May gets her way with 'hard Brexit' we may end up essentially as Trump's 51st state in any case.

Trump is the archetypal "ugly American", but folks in the UK can generally spot his type and differentiate.

Open your mouth in public as an American in the UK (I'm married to an American), and chances are people will be curious, and end up asking you where you're from: "New York? I spent some time there years ago, do you know so-and-so?"

The orange bully fool is causing resistance domestically and about all other countries other than Chitolini's idol Putin.

I will never understand how anyone other then far right white nationalists could think this guy was presidential material.
