US President Donald Trump has said that Republicans must win the 2026 midterm elections or Democrats will begin impeachment proceedings.

Details: Trump said that Democrats are more ruthless than Republicans and will be sure to find a reason to impeach him.

Quote: "You gotta win the midterms 'cause if we don't win the midterms, it's just gonna be... I mean, they'll find a reason to impeach me.

I'll get impeached."

More details: In the November elections, all seats in the House of Representatives and a third of seats in the Senate will be contested.

It is worth noting that removing a president from office requires a two-thirds majority in the Senate to support impeachment, which does not seem realistic given that only a third of senators will be up for reelection and, even under a worst-case scenario for Republicans, they will still control about half of the seats in the chamber.

Background: Trump was the first US president to be impeached twice, though neither case resulted in his removal from office.
