Odds of President Donald Trump being impeached during his second term have reached a record high, with betting markets indicating a 67 percent chance. This surge in sentiment follows military strikes against Iran, a widening Middle East conflict, and the death of Iran’s supreme leader, leading to calls for impeachment from some lawmakers and commentators. Despite these developments, impeachment efforts face significant hurdles, including Republican control of Congress and the high threshold required for Senate conviction. The likelihood of future impeachment proceedings is strongly tied to the outcome of the upcoming midterm elections.

This surge aligns with observed generational divides in recent polling, where Talarico appeals to younger voters and Crockett to older demographics.

A recent poll prediction showing Vice President Kamala Harris ahead of Donald Trump in Iowa has sparked a dramatic shift in election prediction markets. The Des Moines Register/Mediacom Iowa poll, conducted by highly respected pollster Ann Selzer, found Harris three points up on Trump among likely voters. Consequently, markets such as Kalshi, Polymarket, and PredictIt, which had previously favored Trump, saw a decrease in his winning probability.

Despite another favorable poll for Trump, analysts consider the Selzer survey significant due to the accuracy and credibility of previous results.
