Actually, I think the establishment Republicans would vastly prefer Pence, but they've lost control of their own party—any deviation from the teabagger/Trumpist line will not be tolerated by their own extremists, and trying to hew to that line risks losing three to five votes in the Senate, where they can't afford to lose even two.
And I really have no hopes or expectations of an impeachment. It's just a nice little daydream to while away the stray minutes with.
And now there is the Supreme Court Nominee to keep us all distracted (as serious as it is) while Trump continues his assault on basic Democracy. He always keeps some inanity in the air to keep everyone upset with minor things and confused.
Well, he doesn't confuse ME!
