  • Popular betting site Kalshi currently places the odds of Donald Trump being impeached at 69 percent, the highest since the market's creation in November 2024.
  • This figure has steadily increased from 33 percent after his election win to 59 percent a year after his inauguration.
  • Another platform, Polymarket, shows 46 percent odds for Trump being formally charged by the House of Representatives.
  • Trump has previously been impeached twice during his first term, in 2019 and 2021, but was acquitted by the Senate both times.
