"I'll see your non-existing tapes and raise with my real-life contemporaneous memoranda of our conversations". I reckon Comey might take the pot.
Knowing that Trump acts like an Alzheimer sufferer, I wouldn't be surprised if Trump blasts Comey via Twitter for daring to keep records of private conversations in the White House (which implies outrageously that Trump wasn't to be trusted).

Yesterday I found odds for Trump being impeached during his time in office at 5/4 or 2.25 for those needing a conversion.
I think this is going to explode pretty soon

Pence awaits in the wings.

If they string it out for 18 months, then the GOP may well lose control of the House and/or the Senate in the mid-terms. Then Pence won't be much of a problem.
Makes me think of Keating's taunt directed to Hewson - I'm going to do you slowly.
I doubt if Trump would allow Pence to act like he wasn't part of Trump's shenanigans. He would make sure that Pence is handcuffed to him. The thing he hates most is an underling protecting his own butt rather than backing him to the hilt. Underlings are like Secret Service agents - they're there to jump in front of him and take metaphorical bullets.
The bad news is that the 3rd in line is Paul Ryan, at least until the mid-term Election.

Trump will have no say in it.

Interesting that most pundits on the Trump regime are not talking 'if', but 'when'. A blessing in disguise is that no-one can protect Trump from himself (his big mouth/tweets).

I know many speculated that Trump was the instrument to an election win, and that if they won he would be hung out to dry, but I'm not sure anybody expected it to be so rapid!
Is there a way out of this for Trump?

Trump's sacking of Comey and his continued confrontations generally with the "systemic organisations" of Washington, along with the resultant chaotic situation at the White House will only be allowed to continue for a limited time. Unless things change pdq his days as president are numbered - one way or another.
