That gave Starmer a lot of cards to play - he could help Trump with a political problem (of Trump's own creation), and thus get some concessions from the U.S. on this trade deal that he might not otherwise have been able to get.

Starmer knew HE had the cards--so was able to negotiate a FAR better deal for the UK than Spankee could for the US. Be interesting to see what concessions Spankee had to give up in order to get Starmer to agree to a "rushed closing" Spankee needed.
