The Presidency of Donald J. Trump: ORANGE Gettin' PEACHed, Nation Goes BANANAS

David Henig, the UK director of the European Centre For International Political Economy, said the US “would be loathe” to get rid of the barriers intended to protect US producers.

He added: "The US is quite protectionist - the US have never done a trade deal the likes of which Mr Johnson is describing.

"The question is whether the US is prepared to give the UK something and what we would have to give them in return.

“It is less clear what Trump wants in terms of trade altogether.”

In June, Mr Trump made comments that the NHS “was on the table” in US-UK trade deal - but later rowed back on his remarks.

At the G7 summit Mr Johnson was asked if he had made it clear the NHS was not on the table.

He replied: “Not only have I made clear of that, the president has made that very, very clear. There is complete unanimity on that point.”

Wait, what? Trump wanted to trade something for the UK’s healthcare system? That might be dumber than the offer to buy Greenland.

No… The Tory party here have/are currently trying to sell it off and gave the US a proposal in a trade deal… Alough they denied it at the time, and got mad at Trump for opening his mouth THAT IT WAS ON THE TABLE.

Trump at a midwestern rally in the coming days, “Great news for our lovely, beautiful farmers. We love our farmers, don’t we? And they love me. They love me so much, we get such good polls with the farmers… Well, we’ve got you a new trade deal, I talked to Boris and the UK wants to buy all of your cabbage! So forget soy, cabbage is the future! We’re going to Make Cabbage Great Again! (crowd roars)”
