I don't think Pence would pardon him at this point. These politicians were shitting their pants yesterday. They finally "got it". Supporting trump has always been a losing proposition. There will come a time when he will finally ask the impossible and the toady will fail to satisfy him and ultimately trump will turn on them and everyone else. There is no winning with him. Anyone who tries to keep him happy are on a fool's errand. Watching L. Graham last night in his speech was nauseating. Actually, the events of yesterday were a supreme gift to all of us with a modicum of sanity. The end of trump is like a fucking fairytale and, to boot, we won both Senatorial seats in Georgia. What's not to like? I am personally going to thoroughly enjoy watching the trump clan squirm and squeal over the next few days. This has been a verrrrrrry long time coming.

If Pence doesn't invoke the 25th Amendment or they don't impeach and remove him, they didn't get it.? They are complicit.? All of the GOP in Congress, with the exception of the few who may cross the aisle to stand with the group calling for removal.? If they don't follow through with removal, they will go down in history as being the lamest, weakest bunch of deluded, tRump Party, anti-democracy excuses for representatives that was ever elected to govern.??
Watching Lindsey Graham last night do his "haw, haw, enough is enough" political survival speech was so pathetic!? It's hard to believe SC reelected him when they could have had Jaime Harrison.? I wasn't impressed with Mitchy's political survival speech either.? Rats leaving a sinking ship is all that was.?
I'm fully excited also about the Georgia win and what that means.? Once the dust clears, however, I expect Mitchy to continue his obstructionist agenda.??
I think the "lessons learned" from electing tRump are possible, largely due to his disordered need for validation and public airing of it all.? Character matters.? Those that continue to believe otherwise are stuck in the abusive, domestically violent dynamic.??
