Consider that the 1776 USEXIT never happened:

Given Her Majesty's recent public rebuke / dressing down in public of Scotland's first minister I am sure she would be able to bring The Donald to heal.

   I was teasing ChrisB about his "Britspeak", but our ties with the
   "mother-country" are everywhere.
   An article in yesterdays Wahingtom Post pointed our that we brought the
   old country with us - either for nostalgia or to curry favor with the
   crown. To wit: there are hundreds of USA ciies with names borrowed from
   the UK.

   There are 23 Manchesters, 18 Plymouths, 16 Chesters and 16 Oxfords, 15
   Bristols... and 11 Dovers.

   Cheerio,
