On your second question, this is pretty easy. Prosecutors involved in looking into the things you speak of, cannot indict a sitting president. Pelosi is not going to allow the circus that would be an impeachment hearing in the House. Even if there was one and a trial took place in the Senate, that body would not convict.
Trump may be an entirely objectionable person for all the reasons outlined clearly here. But, no, "campaign finance violations, or lawbreaking within the Trump Inaugural Committee, or emoluments investigations, etc etc etc" will not be allowed to rise to the level of "high crimes and misdemeanors" on which the Ds would have to make their case in the House, against the D leadership's objections, to move the impeachment process forward.
Mission to CFB's National Championship accomplished. But the shine on the NC Trophy is embarrassingly wearing off. It's M B-Ball ..... or hockey or volley ball or name your college sport favorite time ...... until next year.

So the Democrats will demand that he step aside as chairman & a criminal investigation must be launched.
And that he must release his tax returns, accountant records, and banking information
Don't ever believe all they care about is the rule of law.

Congress is the only body in America that was explicitly given the power to remove the President. We all know the specific phrase but they can literally do so for any reason, really, if they don't care about winning in the next election.
I really don't care if there's impeachable material in what Dems get from Trump's banks and tax forms. I think it should be public knowledge. It's an unofficial precedent, for Presidents to release their financials, sure, but it's a good one and Congress have every right to use its subpoena power to get them. If you think that spells electoral disaster for the Dems, so be it. I don't. I don't think upper middle class white women are going to feel sympathy for Trump having his tax returns poured over because most of them assume he's done bad shit at one point or another. I also don't think Dems are the only ones going to take blame for Washington gridlock when Trump calls a press conference just to whine about the grievances he has and announce he's going on strike until Dems leave him alone.
That's a winning message with the suburban voters Trump needs in 2020? Ok, if you think so. But I don't.

Jeff, you're a fossil. You lived this. Did you recall that public support for impeachment was only at 19% at the start of the Watergate hearings in June of 1973? By the time he resigned it was in the high 50's.

Monmouth University, (which has an A+ rating on Nate Silver's site--the gold standard of accurate polling, in other words) has a new poll out showing Trump's approval at 40%
Other notables:
67% say Don McGahn should testify
73% say Robert Mueller should testify
37% say Trump deserves reelection (!). 60% say it's time for a change
