What?

No seriously...what in God's name is he talking about now?

Who is he talking to? How many of his supporters will a) understand the Brexit reference and b) be able to see how this has anything to do with U.S. domestic and foreign policy initiatives?

He is clearly an idiot, but what I suspect he means is that hardly anyone and scarcely a single poll suggested that the Brexit side would win in the UK. As American polls go on showing his own downward slide, Trump imagines he is going to pull the same trick out of the bag in America...hence, "Mr Brexit". However, I can't imagine more than 1% of the USA electorate...

Ah!

That makes perfect sense.

Really, it does. But like you say - I doubt it will actually make sense to large swathes of his supporters.
Trump styles himself as "anti-establishment" and "anti-elite". The Brexit vote was such a vote. And a vote for Trump would be similar.
This of course was the man who touched down in Scotland in June 24 claiming the locals were delighted to be free, or something similar. Finger on the pulse, and all that :-)
