It requires a 2/3rds vote to expel a member, not a simple majority. You are ignorant of the basics.

Being stupidly optimistic, expecting things to happen that simply can’t doesn’t accomplish anything either. Be smart and realistic enough to know when a battle is lost and it is time to prepare for the next battle so you can actually win.

Right for misconduct in office. This is something different, simply recognizing that the member wasn't actually elected in the first place. It's the small matter of guaranteeing a "Republican form of government", Article IV, Sec. 5, Clause 1.
