Samantha Bee Hilariously Bashes Brexit, Uses It as a Warning to All Americans
By now you've probably read about the vote heard around the world: Brexit. Since the United Kingdom voted to leave the European Union, late-night comedians have been lampooning the voters' decision, including Samantha Bee, host of Full Frontal on TBS.
In particular, Bee rips voters who admit to choosing to leave because they wanted to make a point to the government, which they say has sacrificed Britain's prosperity to remain in the EU. She jokes, "If you want to send a message, use the Royal Mail. It still works. For now."
Bee also mocks the anti-Europe movement's hypocrisies that pushed voters over the edge to leave — like how leaders of the campaign to exit used the influx of immigrants as a way to sway voters. The whole video is six minutes well spent, and not only because you see David Tennant of Doctor Who read hilarious tweets about Donald Trump after the presidential candidate wrongly implied that Scotland voted to exit.
