On the 1/6/21 anniversary, Trump "jokes" about canceling Midterms, says "I'll get impeached" if Dems win... [View all]

Trump, 79, complained about even having to run against Democrats before floating the idea.

“I won’t say cancel the election, they should cancel the election because the fake news will say ‘he wants the elections canceled. He’s a dictator.’ They always call me a dictator,” Trump said with a smile.

During his more than an hour-long remarks, Trump slammed Democrats for impeaching him twice during his first term.

“You gotta win the midterms,” Trump said. “Because if we don’t win the midterms, it’s just going to be, I mean, they’ll find a reason to impeach me. I’ll get impeached.”
