Don't think for a second the Republicans aren't going to go after Biden for the exact same thing the Dems spent 3 years trying to Impeach Trump over, and the votes are already there if it makes it to the Senate.
1) If Biden ever tries to use congressionally-appropriated funds to extort an ally into providing dirt on a political opponent, he 100% deserves to be impeached as well (and I would expect the Democrats to actually have a spine and remove him, rather than refusing to even hear evidence the way Republicans did).
2) The votes are not there in the senate to make it happen. At best, the Republicans will walk away from this election with a 52-48 edge; that means they'd need to convince 17 Democrats to cross the floor if they wanted removal to stick. If the charges wind up being a completely spurious set like you're implying, there is approximately a 0% chance of that happening. Hell, even if the charges were legit, it's *still* wildly improbable. Trump's guilt wasn't ever in doubt and there was still only a single Republican floor-crosser as a result.

how is this level of doubt and uncertainty days after the fact even accepted, unquestioned, and allowed?
As it turns out, global pandemics tend to have a bit of an impact on the efficient, effective running of large-scale events like elections.
