Trump’s Trying to Save Brexit by Provoking a “Deep State” Coup Against May

Trump’s direct intervention in the domestic political affairs of the UK is as naked, obnoxious, and unavoidable as the Trump baby balloon that Sadiq Khan allowed to fly over the city to mock him, but unlike that highly publicized stunt, the President himself isn’t full of hot air at all but is as serious as it gets.
Theresa May’s government is in crisis following the surprise resignations of her Brexit and Foreign Secretaries earlier in the week to protest her “soft” Brexit sell-out to the EU last Friday, mirroring the state of affairs in the City of London following the highly publicized crime wave that’s swept the metropolis ever since EuroLiberal mayor Sadiq Khan entered into office. Trump derogatorily opined on both of these prior to his arrival to the UK for his first-ever official visit, but his latest interview to The Sun reads more like a direct intervention in the domestic political affairs of the a foreign country than his usual off-the-cuff commentary.
According to his exclusive remarks to the news outlet, Trump:
warned May against pulling a “soft” Brexit;
believes that last week’s deal destroys the prospects for a US-UK post-Brexit trade pact;
think that Boris Johnson would “make a great Prime Minister”;
fears that the UK and the rest of Europe are “losing their culture” because of mass migration;
and condemned Sadiq Khan for his “very bad job on (fighting) terrorism”.
There’s no other way to interpret his words other than that of the unipolar hegemon’s leader blowing dog whistle after dog whistle to his ideologically allied “hard” Brexit supporters to encourage them to democratically overthrow May, sideline Sadiq, and save the real spirit of Brexit that millions of Brits voted for in summer 2016. Trump wants them and their voters to know that they aren’t alone and that the US will provide full support for them if they succeed in their struggle, which contradicts the weaponized Mainstream Media narrative that’s been incessantly spreading fear about the country’s supposedly impending “isolation” and “demise” if it goes through with a “hard” Brexit.
