Personally, I am not convinced the Dems will really impeach. If Pelosi was serious, she would follow the Watergate pattern and set up a special committe with a respected congressman as the head. Adam Schiff is just a political hack with no credibility. This smells more like Pelosi wanting to appease her base.
Even if the House votes to impeach, I don't expect a full blown trial in the Senate. I would not be surprised if McConnell either just shelves the whole thing until after the 2020 election or just has the Senate dismiss the charge on the basis that there is no merit to it.

McConnell will shelve it.
