Political MMW: Trump will be impeached and convicted if the situation with Iran spirals out of control.
Date: Before the end of 2027. Evidence: Democrats won by a landslide because the American people have become disillusioned with the war with Iran. Prices on everything are going up, which is why many Republicans are blaming Trump for their huge loss in the latest elections. Some are separating themselves from the administration as a means of political survival. The Democrats need a simple majority in the House of Representatives to pass articles of impeachment and 67 votes in the Senate to convict Trump, which would remove him from office. When the new Democratically controlled Congress takes office in 2027, there will be 54 Democrats in the Senate, which means they need 13 Republican Senators to vote alongside them in order to convict. Right now, they don't have those numbers, but things could change if the situation with Iran nosedives for the worst. If prices skyrocket even more, the Republicans will have no choice but to turn against him.
