This spike follows Trump's escalating rhetoric about Iran, including a Truth Social post threatening that "a whole civilization will die tonight."
The calls for removal are coming from unexpected quarters. Conservative figures Alex Jones, Candace Owens, and Marjorie Taylor Greene have all raised concerns about Trump's conduct regarding Iran. When your most loyal base questions your judgment, markets notice.
Separately, a Polymarket poll now predicts Democrats will win the Senate in the next election cycle, which would shift the regulatory landscape significantly.
For crypto, this creates a complex scenario. Trump has been broadly positive for crypto policy: the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, favorable SEC appointments, and reduced enforcement actions. A removal or change in administration could reverse some of these tailwinds. However, crypto has also suffered under Trump's tariff war, which drove BTC down 47% from the all-time high.
The net effect is increased political uncertainty, which historically increases volatility rather than pushing crypto in one direction. Traders should watch for any formal 25th Amendment proceedings as a trigger for sharp moves in either direction.
