During a Wednesday Oval Office announcement about a children’s account program, President Donald Trump responded to a reporter’s question about his earlier claim that Democrats would impeach him if they took Congress in November. After saying they lacked grounds, he mentioned 2016 rival Hillary Clinton and former presidents Barack Obama and Joe Biden, saying he had opted against acting against them because he thought it inappropriate given the presidency’s standing, then recalled his two impeachments and said he saw no constraint, according to the Independent. House Speaker Mike Johnson has also told Republican voters that Democrats would impeach Trump if they win the midterms, The Hill reported. Trump’s first-term impeachments involved a call to Ukraine’s president about investigating Biden and the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot.
