Men of the people Donald Trump and Nigel Farage pose in golden elevator
In general, populist politicians avoid taking pictures in rooms made of gold. But President-elect Donald Trump and Brexit leader Nigel Farage are not your average politicians. SEE ALSO: You won, Donald Trump, you can stop tweeting now Here are the two men smiling in a perfectly normal elevator at Trump Tower, New York City, over the weekend. It was a great honour to spend time with @realDonaldTrump. He was relaxed and full of good ideas. I'm confident he will be a good President. pic.twitter.com/kx8cGRHYPQ — Nigel Farage (@Nigel_Farage) November 12, 2016 Farage wasn't caught by paparazzi in the illustrious golden elevator, but instead wilfully published the photo on his Twitter account. Farage is the interim leader of the United Kingdom Independence Party (UKIP), which ran a campaign in favor of the UK leaving the European Union, also known as Brexit. The hoi polloi on Twitter couldn't help but contrast the two politicians' populist messages with their flashy surroundings.

Keep trying, Donald. Farage: Yeah our meme will be as successful as the Biden/Obama meme, don't you think?Trump: Of course, I have memes, I have the best memes. pic.twitter.com/ykgsd9SffR — Christopher Lauer (@Schmidtlepp) November 13, 2016
