London, Nov 4 (EFE).- The leader of the far-right Reform UK party, Nigel Farage, stated this Monday that Donald Trump should recognize his defeat and “go play golf” in Scotland if he loses to the Democratic candidate, Kamala Harris. in the presidential elections on November 5, although he believes that his friend will win.
«If it were clear and decisive (the defeat), then maybe it is time for (Trump) to go play golf in Turnberry (Scotland). “If it were clear and decisive, but everything is hypothetical and I still think he will win,” Farage said in an interview with the British newspaper ‘The Telegraph’.
The leader of Reform UK, who is in Florida (USA) and will be the only British MP invited by Trump for his election day party, assured that Harris has “no spontaneity” and has nothing to say ” without a teleprompter.
The latest polls show that Trump and Harris are very close ahead of this Tuesday’s elections and the latest polls suggest that the Democratic candidate is experiencing a late rebound; in a situation that Farage questioned when comparing them with the statistics prior to the Brexit referendum and which predicted that the United Kingdom would vote more to remain in the European Union.
In this sense, he stated in ‘The Telegraph’ that a second term for Trump would benefit the United Kingdom and that the Republican is determined to promote a post-Brexit “trade agreement” that was paralyzed with the arrival to the White House of Joe Biden, whom described him as an “anti-British president.”
Likewise, he described as “sexy” the prospect of having magnate Elon Musk within the Trump Executive carrying out massive cuts in government departments.
«This is the sexy part: Elon arrives and attacks the deep state with a knife. Just like when he bought Twitter, he laid off 80 percent of the staff. “There will be mass redundancies, entire departments will close and I hope and pray that that is the blueprint for what we will do on our side of the pond,” the Reform UK MP said.
Farage is a confessed friend of Trump, advised him for several years and was in Washington DC during his 2020 electoral defeat, which led to the assault on the Capitol on January 6, a narrative that he assured that he did not share and that he hopes does not become to repeat in these elections.
In this sense, the British deputy expressed his disagreement with the way in which elections are carried out in the United States and described its system as “abominable.”
«Do I have great doubts about the integrity of the elections? Yes, and so do about 70% of Americans. About half of Democrats question the way the elections are run,” Farage concluded. EFE
