Does the Constitution allow post Presidential impeachment? To what end? Take away his pension?

Congress can’t send him to jail and the DOJ is probably still in his hip pocket.

Just forget about this asshole, shut down any government cash he and his foundation are getting and let’s move on.

It takes 66 US senators to find guilt. That ain’t happenin’.

Should office holders be allowed to resign and keep their perks and eligibility because past office holders can’t be impeached? A simple revolving door for corruption?

If convicted, he could not hold future office.

It would not happen: moot.

Where does the Constitution discuss pensions?

One benefit of impeachment the Constitution does specify, however, is disqualification of a federal officer removed via impeachment from ever serving as a federal officer again.

That doesn't address pension rights, but would prevent the Muslim Traitor's appointment to federal office in the future, Senate or no Senate.

Zero holding a day job ever again doesn't seem likely, but the above fact is worth keeping in mind.
