John Oliver (Last Week Tonight) - Brexit Trump on Brexit
England is having a Donald Trump moment.
A toxic political brew is percolating around the UK's decision Thursday to leave the European Union, a fateful vote with consequences not just for America's closest historical ally but for Western stability that could trigger economic and political reverberations in the United States.
While the vote is designed to settle Britain's long-ambivalent attitude toward Europe, the underlying themes of the referendum look familiar to anyone who has been transfixed by the turbulent U.S. presidential election.
