You do not seem to accept the nature of Trump's America. Trump is no more an appropriate partner for Great Britain than Putin. The situation you are facing can not be managed by deft diplomacy or triangulation. I hope that Britain returns to the EU quickly and forms a core, last bastion of democracy before the more aggressive powers divide and conquer you.
If Trump remains in NATO it will only be so that he can be a disruptive factor. I pray that he leaves completely ASAP so that Great Britain and others will face reality. If you are still imagining that you can retain a special relationship with America you are stuck in a sort of Stockholm syndrome.
BTW, Trump's rhetoric encouraging you to increase defense spending is tactical only. It is a cudgel to inflame resentment against Europe. He prefers that you remain weak.
America will take decades to return to being a relatively benevolent democracy. We're already past Poland's bout with autocracy.
