one of the first things trump did was hollow out the gop. It is a small organization so it was easy to do. It doesn't exist as a party that will oppose trump in any way.

And trump will never resign while new york holds a sword that can hurt him. Cuomo isn't going to pardon trump no matter how much he threatens to kill new yorkers. He will have to try to stay in office.

Plus, his ego won't allow him to hand over power to pence who could become a hero as a result. Not to mention the princes and princess would also have to go and they will manipulate him to stay in power.

Not. Going. To. Happen. Ever.
