President Trump warned that impeaching him would “destroy the Democratic Party,” escalating his standoff with lawmakers as the threat of proceedings hangs over Washington. The remark, delivered via a First Squawk tweet, signals that Trump intends to frame any impeachment effort as a political liability for Democrats rather than a personal one. It matters because the outcome will shape the legislative agenda and the 2020 election narrative, with markets watching for signs of whether the confrontation stalls policy progress. What to watch next is whether Democratic leaders move toward formal impeachment proceedings and how Trump’s party rallies around him.
