If there is one figure that can orchestrate the removal of tRump for committing sedition it is Mitch McConnell. Either by fast tracking impeachment and or by putting his political weight behind invoking the 25th Amendment.

McConnell is doing what he has always done and that is anything but representing the people of this country and acting in their best interests.
This is just another example that Mitch McConnell has zero interest in doing the right thing or doing the business of this country. He is the paid shill of the oligarchy like Mercer, Koch, etc. He is their personal employee.
