What happens after Trump is impeached?

Question

Let's face it within 3 months after he wins, assuming he wins, every agency will be after him ranging from the FBI to the IRS.  I wouldn't be surprised if MI6 wants a piece of him.

But after he's impeached and his presidency revoked, what happens afterwards?  Does his Vice President take over?  Is there another election that Clinton will win?  What happens?

Answers saying, "He'll never get impeached!" or "Go back to India!" or something like that will be flagged.

Unfortunately, I believe his running mate would take over. The issue we now face as a country is that both Trump and his VP pick are terrible, but in different ways. Trump will be weak and virtually powerless but incredibly obnoxious- kinda like no-see-ums. But Mike Pence is an actual politician- he knows how to get things done, and he has the same basic platform as Trump, so he might actually manage to achieve some of the unthinkable things Trump has promised. So either one is bad, but I'd rather tolerate an annoying fly than a quiet but deadly snake.

If he is convicted in an impeachment trial, he is fired.  the VP takes over.  That is what happens for any reason that the president is no longer able to perform his duties.  The system has rules in place to deal with it.

Look up Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford.  Nixon would have been impeached and convicted if he hadn't resigned first.  Bill Clinton was impeached but not convicted.  He stayed in office.

IF Trump wins, and IF he's impeached, the vice president would take over.

I'm pretty sure the odds of a Clinton impeachment are much higher than a Trump impeachment.
