Dems must be wondering, in a best case scenario, how much value could be extracted from even a futile impeachment trial.

It's 2/3 sitting senators right? If there are any indictments that put some out of reach of voting then it may be possible. Depends on how dirty rnc/McConnell is.

If they do it, almost all will do it. But are they willing to even plan it, when someone will run to press and spill, bringing wrath down? It’s not worth trying if there’s a chance it will fail.

The key break point would be Trump hitting sub-30 in polls, including daily Gallup. If he gets to 25-point approval range, anything is possible, because a Dem landslide is more likely. The other possibility of a trigger event: T's named an unindicted co-conspirator like Nixon.
