What is happening in the UK right now is a very important story for the US. Not just because our most important ally is in the midst of a serious constitutional crisis and on the verge of one of the great mistakes in its history (Brexit).
It's also important because our countries and leaders have historically been so close and the simultaneous and rapid decay of democratic standards in both of them is a troubling and linked phenomenon. One that will deeply damage the western alliance.
The same people helped engineer the extraordinary crises we see in both countries. They say people with the same sponsors and the same goals. Putin may be smiling but no patriotic American or UK citizen should be. It's worrying and likely to get worse before it gets better.
