Iowa Senate candidate Josh Turek says he wouldn’t impeach Trump

Josh Turek, the Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate in Iowa, says he would not seek to impeach President Trump if voters elect him. Turek said impeachment is not something he is interested in pursuing against the president, according to NBC News.

He made the remarks to NBC News's Tom Llamas, who met the candidate along the campaign trail with only two weeks left before Election Day. Llamas's full interview was set to run on Nightly News the evening of October 21, 2026, putting the Democrat's position on the record for Iowa voters as the race nears its end.

NBC News is also offering a separate one-on-one interview with Ashley Hinson, another Senate candidate in Iowa, among its related video segments. The same video listings include a segment on President Trump promising cash and waivers if Republicans win the midterm elections, along with a report on a new push by Trump in Ukraine talks. Other items listed alongside cover curfews after violent protests in France and Pope Leo saying he will gradually resume duties after cancer surgery.
