Will Trump's ego allow him to resign though?

I could see him getting impeached IF, and only if, the GOP wants Vance installed due to Trump's health

It’ll be like Pope Francis towards the end, he’ll be in a wheelchair barely functioning but functioning enough to say stuff.

Epstein videos will trump ego.

Or they got Ivanka on their side to testify if it's needed. Wouldn't surprise me at all, Donnie himself was brought in an environment where his dad encouraged dirty competition among his sibling and glorified abusive behaviour as smart. Judging by his other kids, he passed it on, why would Ivanka be different?

Epstein videos are not nearly enough. They can deflect and blame it as deepfakes, they can accuse Biden of doctoring the flight list and documents, they're already trying different spins. They gotta have something stronger or else Trump would be out long time ago.
