The only way he's getting impeached is if he does something illegal. Taking into account how the spotlight is on him 24/7, I'm sure he won't do anything dumb that could get him impeached.

I like Pence much better than Trump, but nope, that's not going to happen.

There are good arguments that he already has. But ultimately, it doesn't matter. Although technically speaking he needs to break the law to be impeached, in practice you just need a majority of the House to impeach, and two thirds of the Senate to convict. If Congress doesn't want to remove the President, it doesn't matter what laws he breaks. If Congress does want to remove him, then they'll find some legal excuse to justify it. There's no official oversight of the process, nobody to say "no, that crime didn't happen" or "that crime doesn't qualify for impeachment."

Well currently the Administration and CPB is defying federal court ruling against the ban.
