My chat with a Brit about Brexit June 28, 2016 7:13 pm SDG

Spent the last 5 days in Yellowstone vacationing with my family. Saturday morning, I ended up standing in line for about 40 minutes with a couple from London. They were 6 weeks into an 8 week tour of crisscrossing the country from DC to LA. After chatting a while I asked about ‘the vote’. They became obviously embarrassed by the way the vote went. They couldn’t believe it happened. I co-miserated with them for a bit, owning up to my own embarrassment of having Trump in the running for President. We agreed its a weird year for politics, then changed the subject to more pleasant topics.
