In the three months before the 2016 election, Donald Trump decided he needed a nickname: “Mr. Brexit.” Trump approved of the nation’s break away from the rest of Europe and in an appearance at Turnberry, his Scotland golf course, he lauded the Brits who “took back their country.”

Not content to leave it at that, he also said, at one point, that Brexit was “a great advantage for [the] U.K.”

But the one thing he didn’t note?

It was no great shakes for Trump personally, The Daily Beast reports.

"Mr.Brexit" Donald Trump's Scotland golf resorts crushed—by Brexithttps://t.co/GVqByLJx9T

A financial disclosure filed with Scottish authorities and signed by Eric Trump shows that Brexit “impacted our business as supply chains have been impacted by availability of drivers and staff, reducing deliveries and availability of certain product lines.”

That led to higher prices at Turnberry, which have “increased from additional freight and airport duty charges,” per the filing. “Staff availability has been a challenge from a combination of wage inflation with retail and logistics sectors increasing wages to attract staff due to increased business levels,” the filing reports. “[T]he staffing pool has been reduced with lack of access to European staff for businesses in general resulting in greater demand for individuals previously available to the resort.”

Of course, since Donald Trump was president at the time, he may have been trying to play up to the Brits, many of whom haven’t exactly kept their feelings about him a secret. As NBC News noted in December 2019, as Trump was visiting the U.K. for a NATO meeting, he “is so unpopular in the U.K. that his traditional enemies are hoping he will say something — anything — to denigrate the causes they support.

According to a November 2020 report by Politico, there’s not one single U.K. constituency that would vote for Trump. The site also reported that three-quarters of British voters would vote for Joe Biden if they were able to.

Eric Trump can blame Brexit all he likes, but his father has regularly offended many notable people in the U.K. by, as noted by The Atlantic, doing things like repeatedly bullying former Prime Minister Theresa May and doing even sillier things like insisting that British intelligence is spying on him. Nearly sabotaging Brexit talks by trying to wring out divisive concessions in key trade talks as London reeled under the massive weight of Brexit didn’t help his standing either.

Let’s face it, the man isn’t even smart enough to understand that by supporting Brexit, his own golf course was going to face very real troubles. But that’s Trump for you.

And as far as nicknames for him — I can think of several. But none of them would be printable.

Twitter had some thoughts on “Mr. Brexit’s” golf course being drubbed:

Yes because he cries like a bitch anytime anything makes him look bad and if he IS laundering money there, he won't be able to launder as much.
