Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer has left the door open to the possibility of pursuing another impeachment against President Donald Trump if Democrats regain control of Congress in the 2026 midterm elections.
During a recent interview, Schumer was asked about remarks from Senator Jon Ossoff, who voiced strong support for impeaching Trump. When pressed on whether impeachment would be a priority, Schumer said it was “too far away to even judge,” but stressed that Democrats remain focused on challenging the president’s policies and leadership.
Schumer pointed to ongoing concerns about the administration’s handling of economic issues, foreign relations, and respect for the rule of law. He emphasized that Democrats are working to show voters what he described as the damaging consequences of Trump’s leadership.
President Trump, who was impeached twice during his first term and acquitted both times, could face renewed scrutiny if political dynamics shift after the midterms. Whether a third impeachment effort materializes will depend largely on election outcomes and emerging political developments.
As political tensions continue to escalate, discussions about potential impeachment highlight the sharp partisan divides shaping the nation’s political climate heading into 2026.
