the us has benefited immensely from its ties to europe, giving it legitimacy on the world stage, a huge market to sell goods to, rubber stamp their invasions in the un, give them free military bases to operate out of etc. thinking small countries negotiating 1:1 with a juggernaut like the us would be positive for the small country is fucking hilarious, the trade deals and concessions will be so lopsided it would probably be better to just stop all trade instead.
