US President Donald Trump says Republicans must win the 2026 congressional midterm elections or risk Democrats moving to impeach him. News men stated that Trump made the assertion on Tuesday while addressing Republican lawmakers at a retreat in Washington.
Trump warned that losing control of Congress could stall his legislative agenda and expose his administration to investigations. He urged Republican lawmakers, who narrowly control the US House of Representatives, to put aside internal disagreements, and also asked party members to promote Republican policies on gender, healthcare and election integrity to voters struggling with the cost of living.
The White House denies that Some House Democrats have introduced articles of impeachment against Trump in his second term. However, the Republicans currently hold a slim majority in the House, a scenario Trump said limits the authority of Speaker Mike Johnson.
