Unfortunately it's only *legitimate* reasoning if you take it as what it is, because it's deeply flawed reasoning... as that's not what's going to happen and it's those exact "swamp monsters" who stand to be the ONLY people to benefit from Brexit.

There is no shame in being conned; it's happened to all of us at some point, whether in a relationship, or buying a product, but these folks pretend they weren't conned because they never believed the lies they were told to begin with, but then can't tell you why brexit is a good idea and how it will benefit them and their families.

I've tried talking to these people, but ultimately they just don't want to say publicly that they're willing to force pain on the country because they want to stick it to immigrants. When the facts and costs to the country don't make them pause for a second, then it shows it's purely an ideological pursuit.
