Even if the Senate were to remove him, he’d run and win in 2020.

“Even if the Senate were to remove him, he’d run and win in 2020.”


If he was removed for “high crimes and misdemeanors,” that might preclude him from holding any elective office. I’m simply not absolutely sure about that - but with a kangaroo grand jury (the House) throwing charges about willy-nilly, I’m sure that there will be a charge that is definitely a felony - and if he’s convicted on that (which is unlikely, but still possible), then I believe that he’d be ineligible.

Generally, some impeached and removed cannot ever hold federal office, unless the removal includes an exception.
