    In my view this is a solid summation of the where we are at in the impeachment and its defense. The presenter does editorialize, but also presents a lot of facts. He also does happen to share my level of desperation at this point.

        At the very least, a signal needs to be sent to the USA and the world that there is some level of accountability, even if it is pardoned. Just the fact that there are congressional and DOJ investigations is a strong message to others considering this level of corruption.

        But I meant just general desperation as well.

        To answer your question, maybe things like this? https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2019/02/qatar-666-5th-ave-jared-kushner

        But yeah, I think that Pence might be more of a lame duck, and honestly may be more trustworthy dealing with, well everyone.

        At a very minimum, it would stop Trump from profiting from his position. Pence would also be motivated against the offences and bad plays that Trump has been famous for.

        A Vice President that becomes president after impeachment usually faces greater scrutiny and low popular support. I’ve witnessed 2 impeachments in my lifetime (Brazil) and it’s an ugly affair.
