Once that has been accomplished, then they will pounce on the next faux pas Trump is surely to commit, and impeach him. Pence will be their boy from that point forward..

I think this is likely. Trump cannot govern. His budget and social policy will be Ryan's and the establishment Republicans'. There is a rush now to get as much unpopular legislation done before enough of the Trump supporting public catches on.

At a point--after months of ongoing chaos in the executive, foreign policy failures, alienation of Republicans in Congress--enough Republicans will join with Democrats to impeach or force a resignation. Pence could coast out the term, but 2020 will return the presidency to the party of the people.

It will take a generation to repair the damage. The foreign policy damage may be irreparable.
