It's also not some sort of charitable endeavour whoever we are negotiating with. USA has far less motivation to secure a deal with us than we do with them and therefore, it will lean heavily in their favour. Those clamouring for a trade deal with the USA, as some sort of 'see, Brexit works', might not like what we have to give away.
