Donald Trump on Brexit: 'I don't think anybody should listen to me'

In a statement that comes in stark contrast to his characteristic unabashedness, Donald Trump stated that, regarding the Brexit, his opinion should not be publicly considered or solicited.

We reported on June 1 that Donald Trump apparently has no idea what the Brexit is and today, on the eve of Britain's referendum vote, we bring you an update: Donald Trump still has basically no idea what the Brexit is.

When asked Wednesday how he feels about the possibility of the United Kingdom leaving the EU, Trump said it was his "inclination" that they should get out. But "I don't think anybody should listen to me [because] I haven't really focused on it very much," the potential next leader of the free world said.
