So I want to thank the American people for the extraordinary honor of being elected your 47th president and your 45th president.

It feels like a long time since that emphatic Donald Trump win.

But its day job as president will soon begin in January, and the intray is filling up fast.

Wars in Gaza, Ukraine, and a new regime in Syria are among many of the challenges facing his new

administration abroad, as well as a spate of attention-grabbing appointments at home.

Yes, it's America first, again, but is the US and is the world ready for Trump 2.0?

Welcome to PowerPlay Politico's weekly podcast, where we talk to some of the most influential voices on either side of the Atlantic.

I'm Anne McElvoy, if you haven't already. Please do take a moment to follow this podcast so you don't miss an episode.

This week, we're bringing you a trio of Politico insiders to reflect on Donald Trump's historic election win and what it means

for the Atlantic Alliance. All of us have different roles and viewpoints on the consequences

of an extraordinary election and reverberations across the pond. Kate Day is Politico's

lead European editor. Alex Burns is Head of News,

and he flew in from Politico in Washington, D.C.,

while I shifted my role this week to take part in the discussion

while Kate took on the hosting.

And we recorded in front of a live audience

of Westminster's Movers and Shakers at in-house in Central London.

Here we go.

Wonderful to see you all.

Thank you so much for coming.

My starting point, I think for you, Alex, is how different will Trump mark to be?

We've been round this circle once before, but have we?
