Former Senator Sherrod Brown Opposes Trump Impeachment in Senate Bid

<p>Former Senator Sherrod Brown, a Democrat, is running to regain a U.S. Senate seat in Ohio after losing his 2024 re-election bid. He has stated that he would not support impeaching President Donald Trump.</p><p>If Democrats win the House majority in the upcoming midterms, they may consider impeaching the president along party lines, which would then proceed to the Senate.</p><p>"I can't speak for everybody else, but I would not support an impeachment of Trump. There's just simply no reason for that, no matter what happens in the midterms," Brown told The Columbus Dispatch on October 9.</p><p>Brown's campaign and the White House did not respond to requests for comment from Fox News Digital on Tuesday.</p><p>Brown, who served in the Senate from early 2007 until early 2025, lost a 2024 Senate contest to Republican Bernie Moreno. He is currently competing against Senator Jon Husted, a Republican, in Ohio's special U.S. Senate election.</p><p>A spokesperson for Husted's campaign stated, "Sherrod Brown sided with his party twice to impeach President Trump during his first term. Now he's masquerading as a moderate, despite a career aligning himself with Bernie Sanders and AOC. Don't be fooled; when radical Democrats call, Brown always toes the line."</p><p>During Trump's first term, Brown voted to convict the president after both House impeachments, although the Senate's votes did not reach the threshold necessary for conviction. By the time the Senate voted on the second impeachment effort, Trump was no longer in office.</p><p>While Trump has endorsed Husted, former President Barack Obama is supporting Brown.</p>
