Trump Warns of Third Impeachment Threat if Republicans Lose Midterms

President Donald J. Trump warned on Tuesday at a House Republican policy retreat that Democrats would likely launch a third impeachment effort against him unless Republicans retain control of Congress in the upcoming 2026 midterm elections. Speaking January 6, 2026, the president emphasized the stakes: “You got to win the midterms, because if we don’t win the midterms, it’s just going to be—I mean, they’ll find a reason to impeach me.” Trump reiterated his prediction that he would face impeachment proceedings if Republicans falter in securing congressional majorities.

A prominent political analyst has cautioned that a potential Democrat-controlled Congress would leverage subpoena power and impeachment hearings to advance its agenda, targeting the administration’s operations within federal bureaucracies. The analyst stated congressional Democrats’ legal strategies could extend global consequences beyond U.S. borders, destabilizing international relations as they seek to undermine the Trump administration’s authority.

The analyst noted that if Republicans suffer a decisive defeat in November 2026, the final two years of Trump’s presidency would be defined by judicial subpoenas, impeachment hearings, and other actions they described as “deep state shenanigans.” Such measures, the analyst warned, could place global stability at risk. Earlier this year, the same analyst highlighted that Democrats might cite issues like the Epstein Files to justify impeachment proceedings against the president.

To bolster support among Republican voters, the analyst urged Trump to refocus on his populist campaign promises rather than policies favoring corporate interests or untested economic proposals such as 50-year mortgages. “The midterms are closer than you think,” the analyst added, stressing that major business entities and political allies must navigate the approaching electoral timeline carefully.

Despite declining approval ratings and widespread voter skepticism about economic conditions, the Trump administration maintains confidence in upcoming job market improvements and economic recovery, positioning these assurances to strengthen Republican congressional candidates’ prospects ahead of November 2026. Meanwhile, House Democrats are reportedly shifting their strategy by reevaluating past positions on international conflicts, potentially using recent U.S.-led actions against Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro as grounds for additional impeachment efforts.
