That may not be the best approach....


because an impeachment can continue after DT leaves office. Impeachment is used to remove from office and to prevent someone from serving as an elected official. The senate make up will have changed for the impeachment process (with a new senate majority leader) so fewer republican votes would be necessary to convict. And, by then there will be far less allegiance to DT by Republican senators who will start to put their own political careers ahead of the threats that DT make bring. So, I think his risk of conviction is much higher. It might be better for McConnell to get this over now but he controls the senate for a few more days so that is his choice.
