If it passes, Obama will blame the weak economy on brexit, and Donald Trump win is a sure thing in November.[/quote]

Why would Britain voting to leave the EU cause Americans to vote for Trump?[/quote]

The anti-immigration side won. Fairly significantly in fact.
This is the side represented by Trump in America.  Trump was also for Brexit.  
Obama urged them to remain[b]. Obama's side lost.[/b]
What this portends for the election in the U.S. is unclear - but I will say that right up to the day of the vote most peopl though "remain" was going to win.  [/quote]

Yes, BREXIT was all about Trump's side versus Obama's side.  From a US perspective, Briton leaving the EU is bad for the US and global economies, so Obama, as the US president, rightly supported a remain vote.  From a UK perspective, the people aren't concerned about protecting the US economy.  They are concerned about handing over their sovereign rights to decision makers in Brussels, over whom they have no control.  They are concerned about Brussels regulating their businesses and their immigration policy.  They couldn't  care less what Trump and Obama think.[/quote]

Yes, the "leave" side is like Trump supporters as they disregarded the opposition of the business community and people with at least half a brain.  And their reward will be a nation of greatly reduced importance, a smaller role in the global economy, and quite possibly the end of the United Kingdom, as the people of Scotland are apparently much smarter and are now planning another referendum on independence so they can remain in the EU.
