As history suggests, Republicans face a risk of losing their slim majority in the House of Representatives come 2026. With midterm elections typically favoring the incumbent party—in this case, the Democrats—former President Donald Trump is mobilizing efforts to prevent a repeat of previous outcomes that led to his own impeachment.

Trump is pushing for a redistribution of congressional maps that could yield more conservative districts. His critics worry this plan might lead to unintended consequences, potentially alienating voters. Additionally, Trump has hinted at using military presence in Democratic areas, raising alarms among opponents about the integrity and security of the upcoming elections.

Democrats claim such tactics could discourage voter turnout, citing recent admonitions from figures like Ken Martin, chairman of the DNC. While some accuse Democrats of fearmongering, others have started preparations to ensure fair voting practices ahead of the elections.

Could Trump's strategies support his party's aim for control, or will they spark further outrage and lead to a backlash? As election day draws near, all eyes will be on how these political maneuvers unfold and affect the public's trust in their electoral process.
