JUST IN: In a bombshell closed-door meeting, Donald Trump warned House Republicans that his political survival depends on one thing: winning the 2026 midterms.
According to lawmakers in the room, Trump bluntly admitted:
“If we lose the midterms, they’ll come after me. They’ll find any excuse. I will be impeached.”
The message was clear: lose the election, lose the presidency.
In a closed-door meeting with House Republicans this week, former President Donald Trump delivered a stark warning about the stakes of the 2026 midterm elections, according to multiple lawmakers familiar with the discussion.
Trump reportedly told members that his political future—and personal survival—hinges on Republicans holding Congress. Several attendees said he spoke bluntly, arguing that a Democratic victory would open the door to renewed investigations and impeachment efforts. “If we lose the midterms, they’ll come after me,” Trump allegedly said. “They’ll find any excuse. I will be impeached.”
The remarks underscored how Trump continues to frame upcoming elections as existential battles, not just for his party but for himself. Lawmakers in the room described the message as both a warning and a rallying cry: failure in 2026 would carry consequences far beyond legislative losses.
While Trump has publicly dismissed impeachment threats in the past, the private comments suggest a heightened sense of vulnerability as he seeks to maintain influence within the Republican Party. For House Republicans, the takeaway was clear—winning the midterms is not just about policy or power, but about protecting the presidency itself.
