  1. It's not just unwise, but it would be reckless of the UK to choose the US with everything that's going on over there. We should remember that a lot of countries are trying to shift trade away from the US and for good reason, it reduces there exposure to these games that the likes of Trump likes to play, the UK on the other hand is trying to sign a free trade deal with the US, which if done, would likely boost trade with the US, that would give the US more leverage over the UK. Look at Canada and how aggressive they are pushing to shift away from the US, Canada is one of the most espoused countries to the US, but Canada is lucky in that it's got a lot of natural resources to fight the US on, the UK doesn't and if the UK does boost trade with the US, it will put the UK in a more vulnerable position. I think the smart money for the UK is to put that free trade deal on hold, at least until Trump is out of power, after all, you only have to look around the world to see how many countries are shifting trade away from the US and for good reason, so the UK should be careful with its dealings with the US, especially when there is little to no reason for the UK to expose it's self when it can deepen ties with the EU and Asia. In any case, what we are seeing in the US isn't just a one-off thing with Trump, after all, Trump got elected twice, this problem is much deeper in US politics with how Americans are voting, in other words, if Brits are thinking that things will blow over after Trump gets kicked out, I doubt that will be the case as the US has been getting erratic before Trump, so the UK needs to be careful with its dealings with the US and look across the world at what a lot of countries are doing when it comes to the US.
