Obviously some of those were pretty short odds but he'll have got back about 3/4 of his bankroll.
I did a similar thing:

... I put almost my entire poker bankroll on Unibet (except what I had already used to buy into MTTs) on Clinton - with equal shares for Virginia, Colorado, Nevada, the electoral college and a half share for Illinois. "
my BR was only about 300 euros at the time though.
There was some "gentle ribbing" in that thread after results came in but obviously I was on 3.5/4.5 and not really losing on those bets - I'd made some earlier bets though and ended up with a roughly -25% ROI.
Re: betting in Europe. I'm pretty sure a B&M bookmakers in Europe will take a bet from a US citizen physically on their premises.
