All impeachment will do is send charges to the Senate for trial. Since the Senate has a Republican majority --- and it takes 3/3rds of the Senate, or 67 votes to impeach-- nothing will happen, save he will not be convicted or removed from office. What will happen is, he will use the office of the President to castigate the Democrats for impeaching him as a partisan exercise. That will make removing him by majority vote, that much more difficult. Because his exoneration in the Senate will do much to discredit Mueller's evidence.
The last thing we need is confusion about the crimes Trump has committed. While, in the meantime, if there is an impeachment pending, even fewer people will have reason to read the Mueller report. Here it is again:
