Is Trump or Biden Better for Post-Brexit Britain?

Henry Ridgwell

   LONDON - In 2016, many analysts saw parallels between the election of
   Donald Trump as U.S. president and Britain's vote to leave the European
   Union, casting both as victories for populist politics.

   Four years on, Trump is up for re-election while Britain will leave the
   Brexit transition period at the end of the year. Those analysts now say
   Britain's post-Brexit future could be closely tied with the outcome of
   the November 3 U.S. presidential election.

   The British government is looking to the United States for a new trade
   deal to boost its economy. However, any hopes that such a deal would be
   quick and easy have faded rapidly, says Ian Bond of the Center for
   European Reform, in a recent interview.
