I still can't believe that the GOP would keep Trump around to get their true agenda when he isn't capable of delivering on said agenda. He always gets in the way and can't be quiet when he should be, or loud when it warrants.

I haven't heard any never-Trumpers state that making Pence president would allow the GOP to march in near lockstep over what they are doing now.

All I can say now is they must be waiting for a war to remove him. By then, it's too late.
