20% chance, it's all about votes in the Senate.

Prediction is about probability not yes/no, optimist/pessimist bullshit.

20% is what I put it at and I worry it's a little bit on the high side. I'm trying to be a realist but I know fuck all about the ethical makeup of your average Republican Senator.

I think he'll resign before he gets removed if it comes to it.

I thought he would finish his first term for sure if he didn't have a heart attack and that he'd have a punchers chance at a 2nd. I think his chance at a 2nd term is looking shakier than ever.

Lawful evil. Trump is chaotic evil. Part of me is surprised they didn't replace him with Pence in his first year; honestly I think that would have been the best thing for the Republican Party to do. Might be too late for them now that Pence is also implicated.

To avoid releasing his tax returns? Perhaps but the cat may be out of the bag regarding his hidden finances. He might end up pulling a Jeffery Epstein.
