Democratic Senator Chris Murphy said that Donald Trump has committed “10 times” more actions that deserve impeachment in his second term compared to his first term. The Connecticut lawmaker disagreed with top Democrats who have dismissed calls to impeach the president. Murphy has become a leading voice among younger Democratic members who want stronger opposition to Trump as the party prepares for the 2026 elections.
According to The Independent, Murphy spoke with NBC’s Kristen Welker on Meet the Press. Welker asked him about former Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s statement from late 2025 that Trump’s actions did not qualify for impeachment in his second term. Murphy strongly disagreed with Pelosi’s view.
