There is no EU trade deal with the US yet trade still exisits between UK & US.
I was answering the statement about (apparently not having any) trade agreements with China...

The doomsayers say that our trade will fall, perhaps in the short term.

If the UK has products and services that countries want to buy then a deal will be done quickly.

Countries are no different to shoppers on the high street. They know what they want and where to buy it from.
Countries are completely different from shoppers on the high street - shoppers on the high street aren't trying to sell things to the shops and other customers, whilst countries are trying to sell/buy from each other, and undercut each other, and trying to get the best deal for their own services/industries.
