I have to log off but here's a curve ball -
There's a school of thought that GOP's plan all along has been to wait for Trump to inevitably do something impeachable, then oust him and install Pence.
Then Pence can run as an incumbent without being vetted.

But the monkey wrench was Trump's base. That 31% is impenetrable and they make up something like 70% of the GOP electorate.

The numbers are moving, and they definitely want him gone, so there may be some calculations going on about whether, if they all stick together, they can roll the dice and maybe get away with it.

I know you hate Donald Trump with the fire of a thousand suns and want vengeance.
I know you want to lord it over the MAGA's.
But Pence would be worse. So much worse.

Trump's incompetence and complete lack of interest in policy are the only reason we've had a fighting chance.
A real Republican would roll us on everything.
Never forget, Trump is the symptom. GOP is the disease. Trump's policies will not go away, they will get worse.
