1. Will Trump call Starmer's bluff?

2. If Trump does call the bluff, will Starmer actually deploy British troupes to Ukraine?  I think the answer will be "yes, he will have to", and here's why.

The socialist, Labour Party holds 411 seats in the House of Commons.  The Conservative Party, which was the ruling party before the elections only holds 121 seats.  So, Labour holds a wide majority.  Sending British troupes to Ukraine will be unpopular with the British electorate.  However, Labour, with its landslide majority will believe it can weather the storm.  Furthermore, the Conservative Party is not necessarily averse to intervening in Ukraine. 

With Trump's team knowing all of this, what do you think will Trump do?

Trump handed them the rope and it's up to them if they want to hang themselves or not. 

Trump caves then Trump loses his overwhelming unchallengeable advantage....besides nobody is on bended knee kiss Trump's ring yet.....no groveling
