Even if Trump was solidly convicted......the most that would happen is that he is driven from office.

The VP becomes President, and the first thing he would do, is PARDON the President, to avoid the disgracing spectacle of an ex- US President sitting in a jail cell.

Just as Ford immediately pardoned Nixon. ......and Gore would have done the same if Clinton was removed from office after his impeachment trial.

But Clinton was not removed, so Gore never got his chance to pardon him-

No where. No U.S. President would ever be sent to prison. The President who takes over would immediately 'pardon' them. Just as President Ford 'pardoned' President Nixon.
