President Barack Obama stands by his comment that Britain would move to the back of the queue when it comes to trade deals with the United States if it left the European Union, the White House said on Friday.

"Obviously, the president stands by what he said and I don't have an update of our position," White House spokesman Eric Schultz told reporters at a briefing.

Obama urged Britain to remain in the EU when he visited London in April and warned that a trade agreement between the two countries would not happen anytime soon if Britain left the bloc.

The left, especially American Democrats, are nasty and vindictive.

And don't think for a minute they have given up on their goals. They are relentless.

The boy’s dream of a communist global “union” took a massive hit. Thank you UK! Hillary’s dream of forming an ‘American Union’ in this hemisphere just went in the toilet. The commies are down, now is the time to finish them off. Vote Trump 2016.

Has Hillary issued any statements yet, or is she still waiting for instructions from the Saudi king?

Keep digging Spanky! Between you and Hillary 14 will look like a close election
compared to what’s coming this fall.

Expect the rat Congress critters to throw them both overboard to save their own jobs.

Watch the blue dogs bite first.

Doing exactly the opposite of what the tyrant told them to do is a sure sign that they did the right thing.

Since leaving the EU is possibly a two year process, it is highly unlikely that Obama will be president when it comes time for the UK to negotiate new trade deals. But that doesn’t stop the vainglorious POS from running his mouth and continuing to stick his nose in something that is still a year or more off.

“And don’t think for a minute they have given up on their goals. They are relentless.”

One big difference between liberals and conservatives. When Cons pull ahead they rest; Libs never, ever do.
