1. "I don't know if the emails, so far, are enough to take down Trump..."

They’re not.

Or more to the point, there are no mechanics of governance that can take down Trump – a Republican-controlled House will never impeach; a Democratic House will impeach but Senate Republicans would never vote to convict.

And Section 4 of the 25 Amendment doesn’t apply.

Last, an electoral bloodbath in the 2026 midterms is in no manner guaranteed, given the capricious stupidity of the voters and state Republicans’ efforts to undermine the democratic process and disenfranchise millions of likely Democratic voters – with considerable help from the blind partisan conservative majority of the Supreme Court.
