Yes. The constitution left the definition of "high crimes and misdemeanors" up to each congress. Given the damage the Trump Presidency is causing to our image in the world and our status as a democracy/republic, while having no ability to control himself, I would say he has met the standard for this generation as far as what constitutes a "high crime or misdemeanor" for the president of the United States.
And yes, Pence has proposed some terrible policies in select areas, but at least he isn't clueless enough to collude with Russia, make overtures to white supremacists, or seriously consider starting world war III.
