If he is removed that leaves Pence in office and leaves the possibility of a totally different ticket on the ballot in 2020 that may not even include Pence.

We stand a better chance of winning in 2020 with Trump on the ticket than with him off.

Impeached, further tarnished and further shown for the garbage he is and still on the GOP ballot in 2020 is our best possible scenario.
