Seems mistake for @realDonaldTrump to go to Scotland and weigh in for Brexit. Likely to backfire, boost Remain, no? takingnote.blogs.nytimes.com/2016/06/21/wil…

@kausmickey @realDonaldTrump I thought he was going for his golf course openings, which sounds even worse
@kausmickey @realDonaldTrump Considering all the allegedly “right-wing” talkshows stabbing him in the back (#LauraIngraham), he should stay
@kausmickey Yes. Mind you, as Obama’s intervention was worth a few percentage points for the Brexit side, perhaps it’s only fair.
@kausmickey he may have British citizenship, though unclaimed
@kausmickey @realDonaldTrump @nytimes don’t they vote before that?
@kausmickey @realDonaldTrump but the backlash to trump might spur a counterbacklash against pro remain media elites. https://t.co/9AZ7ssiYvY
@kausmickey Eh, if they let that influence their vote, they don’t deserve to be free anyway.
@kausmickey “I’m not going to interfere with a democratic decision” would be a marked contrast with Obama (and risk free)
@kausmickey @realDonaldTrump @nytimes He is going after the vote. Can’t boost remain vote then.
@kausmickey @realDonaldTrump It’s not so much about Brexit but controlling a news cycle. Efficient messaging without the ad buys.
@kausmickey @realDonaldTrump he is flying there after the Brexit vote.
@kausmickey @realDonaldTrump He is going June 24th and Brexit Vote is June 23rd….
@kausmickey @FieldRoamer @realDonaldTrump he’s going there for the anniversary of his golf course.
