You are missing the bigger picture. Yeah - he won't be removed via impeachment. That isn't what they are worried about anyway. If the House does open a formal impeachment query it means the Judicial Committee (chaired by Jim Jordan) will either investigate themselves or assign another committee to investigate and provide them results. Then once they are satisfied the Judicial committee will vote on whether to send the article(s) to the full House for a vote on impeachment.
Jim will have subpoena powers to question anyone necessary to the inquiry, and it will get massive media attention. Assuming they find whatever they want/need the House will vote to impeach as long as the republicans stick together. I don't see the RINOs voting against it because to them it will be a win/win situation. They will get a chance to show their constituents they aren't really complete RINOs and will remind them leading up to the election that they voted to impeach. At the same time they know the Senate won't vote to convict after a trial, so they won't worry about the deep state getting pissed.
The Senate trial will be the place to enter evidence that will reach the normies since the MSM will have no choice but to cover it - especially since CSPAN will be there. That means everyone will hear about stuff like the laptop, FARA violations, bribes, drugs - everything. That still doesn't mean he will be convicted though. Remember - CJOTUS is the presiding judge. You know - the one with a possible Epstein issue, and a possible illegal Irish adoption issue.
The way I see it is FJB will have 2 choices. Either pardon Hunter and then resign/let his cabinet 25th him, or risk the trial and have all the evidence public. No way he or the dems want the evidence out there, but you never know. If they risk trial then once he is out of office (whether from conviction or resignation/25th) that evidence will still be waiting and will be used to prosecute him criminally under the new republican administration. However - if they 25th him after the evidence is out he will use that as proof of incompetence to stand trial. Note - a trial will bring out damning evidence on other people involved, so I'm sure they won't let that happen.
That's why FJB will pardon Hunter and some other people, then either stage a psychological or medical incident or turn up the acting to appear (even more) incompetent. The cabinet will immediately 25th him and he will avoid prosecution. Kamala will ascend to the 1st spot and Big Mike or Gavin McHair will be chosen as VP, and Kamala will then pardon Joe and step down. That will give Mike or Gavin an air of incumbency to run on - unless the House doesn't confirm either of the VP picks and Kamala can't resign (or McCarthey will become POTUS). The longer they can keep Kamala as POTUS without confirming a VP pick the better chance of her not pardoning Joe.
The good guys just have to make sure to get as much evidence as possible before Joe and the Ho start their scheme, so at least some people can face justice. Even if they don't get the evidence they want the democrat party will have been exposed like never before, and stands to lose a lot of voters and future elections.
The big question - is this plausible or pure hopium?

Excellent, that’s exactly what I was looking for. A thorough review of the situation. Thanks.
