"Almost over night" some of Trump's prominent and wealthy supporters seem to think something changed. It's not like Democratic politicians are the only ones talking about the 25th amendment, for instance.
Flip it around, do you really think that Pelosi, in her heart of hearts, can honestly tell herself or anyone else that there is no chance of him launching nukes if he has a way? If not, then her politics and reputation are beside the point, no matter how inconsistent or insincere she's been in the past.
It is something people were already thinking about, (I know because I was) and it's fundamentally independent of normal politics. In normal politics, nobody would care about the last few days of his term; nobody cares about another impeachment.
Needing to save the world and/or democracy in the US is not what's normally called an opportunity. Even if it were a overblown threat. What would her goal be?
