I wonder how the UK feel about Brexit now that we've all entered that you-can-all-go-funk-yourself age (soon to be called a post-NATO era, I suppose) the USA just inaugurated with their new orange king (Kong)?

It's a serious question. Like I also wonder how the EU would feel about welcoming back the UK?

As a EU citizen, even though they acted like huge dicks (to keep it polite) and knowing they often are an utter pain in the ass to work and to live with, I would support them coming back in the Union. But that's just me and, unlike that Trump guy and its cheese-headed buffoon, I don't think I should rule a country like if I owned it, let alone 27 countries. And then, more than a few countries in the EU may not be that excited at the idea of the UK coming back, with their constant demands... because they themselves have made it real easy to not be happy about them being back.

I suppose signing military deals (and hopefully closer collaboration, training and other stuff armies do) would be the obvious thing to do, right now.

PS: I also do wonder how the assholes that led them into this shitty situation are doing?

Same, as long as there are exactly zero exceptions for them this time. And they must adopt the Euro from day one.
