4. I think he drags it out as long as he can. Maybe the full four years.

Chances of the House impeaching are small. Maybe one in five. They have a thin majority there, but even if 100% of the Democrats vote to impeach, can you seriously imagine more than 3 or 4 Republicans crossing the aisle?

Then it goes to the Senate. It's high drama. Of course Trump goes to the mat for this. He loves that high drah-ahms. Republicans have 52 votes. But they only need 34 of them to reject removing a Republican president, assuming no purple state Democrats vote to spare him.

If I was a betting man, I'd say Trump is still favored to be president through 2020.
