Импичмент отстраняет от должности, но не служит заменой уголовному наказанию: "the Party convicted shall nevertheless be liable and subject to Indictment, Trial, Judgment and Punishment, according to Law" https://yakov-a-jerkov.livejournal.com/1678482.html?thread=60897170#t60897170

Прецедентов пока что не было. Никсона помиловали до предъявления уголовных обвинений, а Клинтон заключил сделку со следствием, по которой обвинений ему не стали предъявлять, ограничившись штрафом и лишением адвокатской лицензии.

Under what amounts to a plea-bargain deal with the independent counsel Robert Ray, Mr. Clinton admitted for the first time to ''testifying falsely'' when he denied an affair with Monica Lewinsky during a deposition in the Paula Jones sexual harassment suit. Most people will properly see that as an admission that he lied under oath, notwithstanding the semantic quibbling of Mr. Clinton's lawyer, David Kendall.
As part of the deal, Mr. Clinton also accepted a five-year suspension of his license to practice law in Arkansas and agreed to pay a $25,000 fine. In exchange, Mr. Ray has agreed to close his investigation without filing any criminal charges against Mr. Clinton for perjury or obstruction of justice.

Но если Трампа переизберут в 2020, то к концу его второго срока закончится срок давности по преступлениям, которые расследовал Мюллер, и таким образом он уйдет от ответственности.
