What does everyone believe will happen if Trump is removed from office?

No one is going to invalidate this election. Republicans control both chambers at the moment and will drag their feet until after the inauguration. Then we would have to impeach him, and we would have to do it with Republican votes. Then, even if we manage to do that, Pence would become President.

Best case scenario: Trump is impeached and a handful of his cabinet picks fall by the wayside. Other than that I do not see much changing.

The hacks are going to trace directly to the campaign. Does that not implicate Pence too?

Once Trump is on power, it won't matter though, he would start WWIII rather than lose power.

The Republicans did not elect a president.

The Republicans elected a Dictator.

They will not be able to control Trump.
