Conservative lawyer George Conway issued a warning that Donald Trump may "sabotage" or even "ignore" the results of next year's midterm elections.
Conway, who left the Republican Party during the first Trump administration and became an outspoken critic, suggested there is an "increasing danger" that Trump may interfere with the outcome of the election or that he may even ignore the result. The midterm election will take place on November 3, 2026, and it may see Trump "double down" following election losses this year.
Speaking to MSNBC, Conway said, "A personality like his, a malignant narcissist, they don't go away. He's just not going to all of a sudden behave himself because he suffered an election loss. If anything, he's going to double down on everything he does.
"I think for 2026, we're going to see an increasing danger that he's going to try to, in some way, sabotage those elections or, at the end of the day, maybe even ignore them in some fashion."
Conway also warned Trump is "only going to get worse" for the remaining three years of his administration.
He added, "I think we're going to see more and more of the attempts to silence dissent and to use military forces throughout the country. I think we're going to see a lot of things that get a lot worse before they get better with Donald Trump."
Democratic Party victories in the New York mayoral election and governor races in Virginia and New Jersey may see some Republican candidates distance themselves from Trump, Conway suggested.
The former Republican Party member indicated former Trump allies could temporarily cool off on MAGA messaging and that new voices could decide "they don't want to play anymore."
He said, "It's never a losing bet to bet on the spinelessness of congressional Republicans. I do think we'll see a little more defiance here and there. I think Marjorie Taylor Green is an interesting case study. She's obviously separating herself from MAGA and the president for now.
"But on the other hand, I think what we're going to see is, I think we're going to see more of the less extreme people, to the extent that there are any left in the Republican Party in Congress, decide they don't want to play anymore."
