CMV: Impeaching Trump is a bad idea because Pence is worse

I consider myself a left-leaning moderate. I'm not a Trump fan, I went into his election hopeful he'd do okay after voting third party in 2016 but he's certainly lost any modicum of support from me that I had. I think that whether or not he has done enough to get impeached is up for debate, but let's go off the premise for this CMV that he has. I will say I fear Pence a million times more than Trump. Trump is a buffoon, and has put some damaging policies into place, but under Pence we could expect the same policies plus the dial turned up all the way. He's extreme, has more government experience, his views on social issues are much further to the right of Trump's, and if he chose to run for re-election in 2020, I'd argue he'd possibly be more electable than Trump and post a greater threat to whomever the Democrats nominate. Even if that last one isn't the case, Pence is straight up horrifying and I don't understand how anyone on the left side of the aisle would take President Pence over him.

Bill Clinton was impeached, but Al Gore was never president.

If Trump has done something illegal, he ought to be impeached. That doesn't mean he'll be convicted and removed from office though. The purpose of impeachment would be to lay the charges and present the evidence, and then demonstrate the utter ethical vacuum of the Republican Party when they vote against finding Trump guilty, even though the evidence clearly indicates he is.

Assuming there is such evidence, of course.
