The Iraq war was deeply unpopular last time round and it basically destroyed Blair's career. Trump is far more unpopular than Bush in the UK and the population are far more politically engaged this time round. And more sceptical too. The UK government is also far weaker now than last time. I don't see the UK joining in with this war, no matter how desperate the Tories are for a trade deal with the US. The Brits are by and large cynical bastards so there won't be any fooling them a second time. Although I fully expect the Westminster government to try and join in. Although saynig that, the UK doesn't always help fight America's wars. We stayed out of Vietnam for example.
