Donald Trump's weakened state following the midterm congressional elections may prompt his political opponents to initiate impeachment proceedings, Mauricio Estevez, a political analyst and researcher at Mexico's Metropolitan Autonomous University, told TASS. "Given the results of the midterm elections, President Donald Trump's domestic political standing has clearly weakened. We cannot rule out impeachment proceedings or the use of other mechanisms to redistribute power within the US," he said. Explaining the Republican defeat, Estevez said that American voters, including the Latino community, cast protest votes against the administration, driven mainly by concerns about their finances amid a lack of economic progress in recent months. Mistakes in foreign policy, including the military operation against Iran and unconditional support for the actions of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, also hurt the White House's approval rating.
