From Clay Jones on his political cartoon “Toodle Pip, EU,” the Brexit vote, and Scotland’s blistering tweets to an embarrassingly misinformed Donald Trump
I’m a fan of British humor, from Monty Python to The Young Ones to The Three Flavours Cornetto Trilogy to the first two Beatles movies. One of the biggest aspects of the humor, or “humour,” to me is the slang. American slang sucks compared to the English, especially when it comes to insults.
Donald Trump might have learned that Friday if he had the capability to comprehend and learn stuff.
On Friday after the Brexit vote, Trump sent out a tweet while he was promoting his failing golf club in Scotland. There’s no larger evidence that Trump’s presidential campaign is more about his brand than policies than him taking a break to promote a failing golf club overseas.
I digress. Trump celebrated the United Kingdom leaving the European Union, even though he probably doesn’t understand it. He had it explained to him a few weeks ago on live television. Now he thinks it’s a great development. His tweet stated, “Just arrived in Scotland. Place is going wild over the vote. They took their country back, just like we will take America back. No games!”
The most ignorant thing about Trump’s tweet is that Scotland voted 62 percent to 38 perfect to stay in the EU. One clever Twitter user replied to Trump’s tweet with “Scotland voted Remain, you weapons-grade plum.”
It didn’t stop there. Please forgive the not-safe-for-family-newspaper language here, but further insults were as follows:
—Delete your golf course.
—Scotland voted Remain you muppet.
—Scotland voted to stay you numpty.
—Scotland voted to remain, you tit.
—Oi, buttplug face, Scotland are pro-EU.
—Scotland voted overwhelmingly to stay in Europe you toupéd fucktrumpet.
—SCOTLAND VOTED TO STAY, YOU WITLESS FUCKING COCKSPLAT!
—No, they aren’t you cockwomble.
—Scotland voted remain you incomprehensible jizztrumpet.
—Scotland voted stay & plan on a second referendum, you tiny fingered, Chetto-faced, ferret wearing shitgibbon.
—Scotland hates both Brexit and you, you mangled apricot hellbeast.
—They voted remain you spoon.
To top his day off, one Scottish protester dropped golf balls all around him at his press conference. The golf balls were emblazoned with Swastikas. Too bad Corey Lewandowski had been fired and wasn’t there to rough the Scot up.
Trump is a spoon. A great big touped, Chetto-faced spoon.\
