It looks like we may be getting close:

Whenever the Vice President and a majority of either the principal
officers of the executive departments or of such other body as
Congress may by law provide, transmit to the President pro tempore of
the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their
written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the
powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall immediately
assume the powers and duties of the office as Acting President.

Reports from Whitehouse insiders indicate that Trump's behavior is
growing increasingly eratic and unhinged. That's obviously a
dangerous situation. Let's keep our fingers crossed that we get
through to inaugaration without major incident.

I don't see Pence leading that charge. He's spineless. Trump is there to
stay until Biden takes over next month or sooner if he is afraid to
leave without a Pence POTUS pardon in his pocket.
All the more reason to resign.
Though he has none of his own, Trump may be depending on Biden's basic
decency to avoid federal prosecution, or he will try to pardon himself.
Trying to prosecute a President for what he did in office, will open up a
huge can of worms. Maybe even get lots of the Legislative Branch tossed.
People will say, where were the checks and balances? You people failed!
So we want you gone and maybe even prosecuted.
