Currently, the Republicans control both the House and the Senate, making a third impeachment very unlikely.

Summary

Efforts to impeach Donald Trump for a third time are intensifying as he begins his second term.

The non-partisan group Free Speech For People launched the “Impeach Trump. Again” campaign, citing constitutional violations, including his alleged role in the January 6 Capitol riots and breaches of the emoluments clause.

The group also accuses Trump of campaign finance violations, xenophobic rhetoric, and abuse of power.

However, impeachment remains unlikely with Republicans controlling Congress. Democrats may revisit impeachment if they regain control in 2026.

    If real crimes aren’t impeachable, the only thing left is made up bullshit.

    To provide an actual counterargument: That’s not necessarily true. Just because there is a category of crimes that politicians tend to ignore for impeachment purposes, that doesn’t mean there aren’t also real crimes that would trigger impeachment.

      Sure, it doesn’t follow logically. I don’t think the right operates on logic. Impeachment only exists as a political weapon to them since it does not serve to hold presidents accountable.
