Theresa May will make a mess of Brexit?

Have just read this article which says that Theresa May does not seem to understand Britain's position in negotiating for trade deals as part of Brexit. This worries me as those negotiations are going to be crucial.

I know it's been done to death but I honestly believe that they are still treating Brexit as one big adventure where they will blame the EU for every step that's not in the UK's interest, blaming their vengefulness. I also believe that they wanted to use the immigration as a means to blackmail the EU but that's backfiring slightly now.
I see Brexit as made and run by the posh public school Tory boys who don't really look at the reasonable side of things, it's all run on the "Britannia rules the waves" spirit and it won't come to much good.

Nobody could make a success of Brexit. Unless we've found a formula for the alchemy required to turn shit to gold. They're more interesting in lining up the inevitable scapegoats we'll need for this embarrassment.

I know that the trade negotiations are simply about making things less bad than they could be. But this article argues that Theresa May obviously does not understand what is involved in these negotiations. That is worrying.

Btw, this is actually extremely funny. I assume all Brexiters should pitch in and start drinking vodka instead of gin and tonic. Not patriotic, tovarschi.
