    There is. He can be censured which is just ceremonial. He can have his committee appointments rescinded which would neuter his bullshit. He could be expelled and his constituency would need to elect someone else.

    The problem is that Republicans support him so none of this will ever happen. Trump committed treason on live television by asking a hostile foreign nation to influence our elections and they complied that day. Republicans don’t care, they only want to win and damn the country.
