The charges against Trump are going to be so numerous, so severe and foolproof congress will have to act. We know the tea party nutbags in congress will not impeach Trump. There are not enough of them to save Trump.
I find it hard to believe the Republican party would risk everything to protect Trump once all the charges are made public.I believe they will turn on Trump. I believe a lot of Republicans are sick of Trump. Many hate him. The Republicans in the senate have been friends with McCain for years. They are not happy with Trump. Behind the scenes many Republicans probably have been thinking for a while Trump would have to be removed someday. I think they would rather have Pence as President. He is one of them. Trump is not.

if they get rid of him. They'd much rather the Democrats do it so the Republicans can play the victim and rally their base.
