Donald Trump suggests Theresa May's Brexit agreement could threaten a US-UK trade deal

Donald Trump has warned that the deal UK Prime Minister Theresa May reached with the EU could jeopardise Britain’s ability to strike a trade pact with the US.

The US President told reporters the withdrawal agreement "sounds like a great deal for the EU" and meant the UK might not be able to trade with the US.
