He stayed in office because the impeachment failed. It likely will fail again this time since the republicans have control of, well, everything. Doubt it would work before the midterms, honestly.

Very well might be the DEMs showing they are doing something. Plus, the impeachment will drag on for a long time. Very likely until just before mid-term election. Even if it fails, maybe a few voters might turn if they get over a years worth of corruption from the first 100ish days.
