Nigel Farage: Clinton acts like she has 'divine right' to presidencyBy NICK GASS at Politico

"SNIP............
"Donald Trump dares to talk about things other people want to brush under the carpet. What Mr. Trump is doing in America is very different than what I'm trying to do in the United Kingdom. My problem in politics is far greater than Donald Trump's. We literally have lost our sovereignty, lost our borders, lost our ability," Farage told CNN's Richard Quest on Tuesday in an interview from Brussels, Belgium.

Quest remarked that Trump would say the same thing about U.S. borders, to which Farage responded, "Well, the problem that you've got in the U.S. is illegal immigration. Our problem is legal immigration to half a billion people."
"I think for the United Kingdom, I think Trump will be better for us than Barack Obama's been. Of that, there is no doubt," said Farage, who addressed the European Parliament days after the Brexit vote.
Asked whether he would like Hillary Clinton or prefer to sit out this early in the general election, Farage was unequivocal.
