From the battlefields of Ukraine to the boardrooms of Europe, Trump has sent multiple shockwaves across the continent since returning to power last year.

During a head-spinning 22 months, the mercurial leader has turned spectacularly on Kyiv, imposed tariffs on allies and threatened to take Greenland.

Ahead of the Nov 3 polls it looks like American voters could punish Trump's Republican party and hand control of one or both of the US House of Representatives or Senate to the Democrats.
