"He will be very angry." Diplomats are terrified of Trump's defeat, he may vent his anger on Europe.

European allies are concerned that a potential defeat for Republicans in the upcoming congressional elections could lead Donald Trump to adopt a harsher stance towards NATO. Diplomats warn that if Congress limits Trump's domestic policy options, he may focus more on foreign affairs, potentially increasing tensions with NATO. There are fears that Trump could condition U.S. military presence in Europe on European countries accepting a peace deal regarding Ukraine. Additionally, he might reduce U.S. contributions to NATO's budget and deepen ties with Russia. The White House, however, claims Trump has done more for NATO than anyone else, emphasizing increased defense spending commitments among allies.
