5 reasons why Americans should care about Brexit It could hurt the economy - The UK is the world's fifth-largest economy and one of the United States' largest trading partners, so if it catches a cold, we may get a little sick, too.
It may leave a less stable Europe - Brexit could start a long line of dominoes to fall across Europe.
Greece has been thinking about getting out of the EU for a couple of years now.
Now they may start thinking out loud.
It puts stress on the 'special relationship' - Both President Obama and Vice President Joe Biden said after the vote that the special bond between the U.S. and the UK will endure, but there can't help but be some changes.
Trump will go all in on immigration - Fears surrounding immigration was a big factor for a lot of Brits who pulled the lever for Leave, and Trump suspects it will be, too, for Americans voting for a new president in the fall.
Travel to the UK will be cheaper - Looks like the pound's going to be down for a while
