Literally anything out of CNN is running cover for reality which moves in the opposite direction. My interpretation of this story with that in mind is - Pence and Pelosi are bros but CNN wants you think otherwise.

As far as “nothing to lose” - hah, Trump has his life, his family’s life, and many of our lives to lose right now. There’s sick pedo’s around the world eyeing Barron as the ultimate revenge fuck right now, and they’d happily tie Don up and make him watch the footage.
