Weekly Commentary: Israel Needs To Plan For Possible Trump Impeachment
Window
Dr. Aaron Lerner 11 June 2026

It would appear that Mr. Trump is going to reward Iran with the opportunity
to make billions in oil sales (and possibly enjoy the release of billions of
dollars in frozen Iranian assets ) in return for graciously agreeing to have
President Trump kick the "deal ball" down the road for sixty days.

So let's look beyond this 60 day window and consider another one.

If when the House of Representatives convenes on 3 January, 2027 it has a
Democrat majority, President Trump will quickly be facing impeachment
proceedings.

And while it is true that a special majority is needed in the Senate to
impeach, there is one critical unknown factor: to what extent did the people
who were involved in arranging for Mr. Trump's blind trust's fantastic stock
trades feel compelled to keep records squirreled away with an eye that these
records might be their "keep out of jail" card one day.

To be clear: if nothing illegal was going on in the activity of the blind
trust then this point is moot.

But if something was going on, this kind of evidence is probably the only
evidence which could compel some Republican senators to also vote for
impeachment.

And that would create a very tight window: from the moment that Mr. Trump
is aware that he is being betrayed to Mr. Vance becoming president.

That would be time for Mr. Trump to make history and time for Israel to try
to get something done before there's someone else sitting in the White
House.

We cannot discuss this with CENTCOM yet.

But it is only prudent for us to prepare a plan of action against Iran which
fits into such a tight window.

So that if, and that is a huge if, the ball drops for a highly certain
impeachment, we have everything thought out.

Because there most certainly won't be enough time to come up with a plan if
we wait.
