12. Wouldn't it be great if Trump

turned the presidency over to Pence for a pardon and Pence did not give it or give the presidency back to Trump? If Pence used the opportunity to 25 Trump?

OK, that will never happen, but it would be hillarious to see.

I don't think Trump would turn it over to Pence for a pardon. Trump is too distrustful and paranoid, especially now, to give up control of the office.

I do think he might try to use Congressional challenges when Congress meets to count the EC votes. It's the only thing he's got left. Besides making money off of the donations from his followers, the hope of Congressional challenges might explain why he continues trying to sell the voter fraud story.
