Hmmm... the EU has set up a team to prepare plans (diplomatic & practical) for the possibility of Trump's 2nd term as POTUS.
Although a Harris presidency would likely see some shifts in US/EU relations, this would normally hardly require major preparation... so it looks like the EU's reading of the tea leaves still sees a Trump victory as a distinct possibility (sadly, as do many others).
We can but hope that our American friends can galvanise support for Kamala Harris.
