Nigel Farage has given Donald Trump a solid piece of advice ahead of the US presidential election tomorrow as polls continue to show an incredibly tight race with Democratic rival, VP Kamala Harris.
Farage attended a recent Trump rally in Reading, Pennsylvania and has been a supporter of the presidential hopeful in all three of his campaigns.
The Reform UK MP for Clacton offered his friend some advice should he face defeat in the polls against Harris, telling him to “go play golf” in a simple three-word demand.
Farage told The Telegraph: “If it was clear and decisive then maybe it’s time [for Trump] to go and play golf at Turnberry.”
He also told Harris to pardon Trump if she becomes president as a way to mitigate against any possible political unrest after one of the most highly anticipated elections in recent history.
He said: “If she [Harris] gets in on Tuesday I hope she pardons him. She could look magnanimous and it would dampen down potential tensions.”
There have been fears of a repeat of the January 6 insurrection if Trump loses once again, as some of his more ardent supporters still don’t believe he lost the previous election.
As this would be his third campaign for the presidency, Trump was advised by Farage to walk away from politics if he is unsuccessful.
The MP said this would be the best thing for democracy in the States and advised against him claiming the election was stolen from him, as he did in 2020 when he lost to Joe Biden.
Farage setressed that he never went along with this narrative and was happy to say that to Trump’s face.
He said: “I have never gone along with the stolen election narrative. Let’s hope and pray that is not an issue this time. If it [the outcome] was clear then Republicans have to accept the result.
“The whole point of voting is we don’t need to fight. It is what we fought two world wars for. We settle our differences with the ballot box. It’s all hypothetical and I still think he is going to win.”
Farage flew to Florida on Sunday to attend Trump’s election party at Mar-a-Lago before he was scheduled to attend rallies in Pennsylvania and Michigan on Monday, the eve of the election.
Latest polls indicate an incredibly tight race, with 538 and ABC News predicting a Harris victory of 48% compared to Trump’s 46%.
