BLOOMBERG HAS A SAD: BREXIT VOTERS SPURN OBAMA PITCH, TESTING ‘SPECIAL RELATIONSHIP:’

“President Obama clearly has egg on his face,” said Nile Gardiner, director of the Heritage Foundation’s Margaret Thatcher Center for Freedom.

Cameron may now be forced to step down, and Obama is unlikely to have as close a relationship with his successor — especially if it’s Boris Johnson. The voluble former London mayor, who was a leading campaigner for the Brexit, said Obama’s intervention on the other side may stem from an “ancestral dislike of the British empire” because of his Kenyan roots. The remarks were widely condemned in the U.K.

Yes. Truth can be painful.
