In explosive interview, Trump says Theresa May's Brexit plan will 'kill' a US-UK trade deal
President Donald Trump has said British Prime Minister Theresa May's proposed Brexit plan will "probably kill" off any chance of a UK-US trade deal.
Trump's remarks, made in a bombshell interview with The Sun published Thursdayduring his first visit to Britain as US president, are an explosive intervention into British politics that seem likely to cause political chaos and imperil the prime minister as she attempts to negotiate Britain's exit from the European Union.
The Sun is owned by Rupert Murdoch, who is known for having a close relationship with Trump.
May's proposal was finalized Friday and quickly sparked a slew of high-profile political resignations from her Cabinet, including Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson and Brexit Secretary David Davis, over concerns the plans would leave the UK too closely linked to the EU.
