Did Trump tweet about Britain First to distract people from his tax plan?

The Dead Cat strategy strikes again. The tax plan is good for plutocrats and bad for a lot of people in his base. Best rile up people on Twitter by re-tweeting anti-Muslim videos by a British far-right group in the hope that 'populist' voters don't notice the real economic agenda.

I'm not sure it has anything to do with his tax plan. He's been doing campaign stops, telling his followers what to think of the tax plan. They believe him, and that's all that counts.

The Britain First tweets are consistent with his campaign agenda, and to remind his followers that he remain the same good ole xenophobe they elected. It's vintage Trump. It will be interesting to see of May will stick to her position, or capitulate.
