Abundant tweets about civil liberties & national security. "Has a longer memory than an elephant & keeps more records than Jim Comey.” Legendary potty mouth.

        The longer thread sounds eerily similar to the current Republican party.

        May should just pull out of the Brexit, hold a vote to overrule the referendum. Lead. Not that Thatcher would support this idea, but Thatcher would gleefully dive into this type of fight. May wants to be her but lacks any of that iron.

        Corbyn has already promised to deliver Brexit if Theresa May won't. The UK is fucked. Marcy, when next on @majorityfm, maybe share these facts with Sam. His producers/researchers are Corbyn stanning morons. They still think #TrumpRussia is overblown bullshit, cooked up by Dems.pic.twitter.com/mZ9N09VRZE

        I suspect once in office, Corbyn would recognize it's not as easy/doable as promised. All you have to do is look at how bloody awful the situation is already. Someone needs to back off on this one, lead the nation instead of letting dumb jingoism lead to ruin.

        Also, I might be giving Corbyn too much credit, but Labour's current moves re: Brexit may be to let the Tories hang themselves on it. Don't give them an excuse to blame Labour for slowing Brexit. I don't agree with him on everything, but he's done better than Miliband for sure.
