Pence could save us the worst of Trump's waning presidency

I do not think this will happen. But considering that Trump seems to be turning against Pence (and I'm sure that Trump will completely lose his shit when his Vice President presides over Congress' certification of Biden's victory on January 6), in just a few days Pence could invoke the 25th Amendment and "temporarily" remove Trump from office for enough time to cover the remainder of Trump's term. 

Again, I don't think Pence will even try this. But he could if he wanted. And it's fair game to forever hold Pence responsible for whatever crazy stuff happens in the last 25 days if he doesn't try it.
