The article discusses the UK's predicament in negotiating trade terms with President Trump, suggesting that despite British efforts to appease him, the results might be disappointing or even detrimental. It draws a parallel with Columbia University, which faced increasing demands after caving to Trump's initial requests, highlighting a pattern of extortion in such dealings. It also notes the intricate diplomatic gestures from the British royals, especially King Charles's invitation to Trump, implying subtlety in their approach against a backdrop of perceived American tyranny.
The phrase British negotiators are hopeful followed almost immediately by use of the word disappointed in heavy rotation takes you, with grim amusement, back to every toxic relationship in which you have played Britain to someone else's America.
No matter how the UK pretzels itself to fit Donald Trump's requirements, none of it will make any difference...what difference it makes is likely to be negative.
It's a rule of extortion that demands will increase with each capitulation, as Columbia University is finding out to its cost.
With any goodwill generated by King Charles's letter inviting Trump to Balmoral apparently thrown up in the air.
