Saw this in US Military,

If Trump's conduct is so wrong, then I expect both the house and the senate to impeach him.

Maybe not,

, I see no way on God's Green Earth that Trump will ever be found guilty of any charge regardless of how heavy the evidence is.

If GOP senators were to throw him under the bus, it could turn into a double header,

I think most readers know who that would leave on deck.

If on the off chance Trump is convicted by the senate, Pence becomes president. A separate impeachment would have to be held to get rid of Pence. You can be sure that while that is happening Pence will appoint a squeaky clean VP to take over for him in case he gets tossed. There is no way an impeachment leads to a Pelosi presidency.

And the power to change the succession policy beyond the VP lies with Congress, as described here.

Whatever the policy of succession, I've got to go with FJAG, "I see no way on God's Green Earth that Trump will ever be found guilty of any charge regardless of how heavy the evidence is."
