We're talking best case scenario here. Which means evidence comes to light that Trump and Pence were working with Russia to undermine our election process. At which point even Senate Republicans would have a hard time NOT impeaching them. (assuming they aren't just straight up assassinated by someone -- which I wouldn't advocate, only by principle. I wouldn't shed a tear if it happened though.)
"Tradition" is just a word people use to make themselves feel better about being an asshole.
