It depends on the size of the defeat (or win). If they win by 3% more than expected, or, like Alabama take back a few "strongholds" then he'll spend the last two years defending himself and probably not run for a 2nd term.

If they merely take the house by a little, then no impeachment will happen.

If he gets his approval to strongly supports 38% and overall 50% by November, republicans will keep the house.

If there is truly a "wave" and the house goes over by 50 seats to democrat, he might be impeached and removed successfully but I doubt it.
