If he is impeached and it sticks, he's barred from ever holding any federal position.

he was impeached already, is there a term for being removed from office?

He was impeached, but it did not stick. The House impeaches (a fancy word for "accuses") ... the Senate tries the impeachment as the court of law.

The House’s role in Impeachment is similar to that of a grand jury. They hear the evidence presented by prosecutors and then vote whether to pass along the articles of impeachment to the Senate for the approximation of a “criminal trial” whereby the full case is then heard and argued.
The Senate trial is where both sides argue their case and it’s put to a vote. The vote for conviction requires a 2/3 majority.
It’s a simple legal process, and it’s all outlined in Article I, Section 3 of the US Constitution. Nothing magical or mystical or even esoteric.
Technically, anybody can be impeached for any reason. Just like anyone can be indicted for any reason. While impeachment and indictment may have certain social stigmas attached to them, there is no legal penalty in either situation. Upon trial and exoneration, both are free to continue as usual, at least from a legal perspective.

Since the entire fucking US government, Democrats and Republicans, plus the Deep State, the entire justice system, the CIA, the FBI, probably the NSA although you never hear from those sneaky fuckers, all of Hollywood and the entire corporate media, as well as all the big tech companies and major Internet sites are ranked shoulder to shoulder against Trump, and since all Trump's "loyal" supporters have turned against him, betrayed him, stabbed him in the back, and fled from him, and since everyone in America seems just fine with accepting an election of a pedophile, crook and traitor to the White House (soon to be called the Rainbow House), an election that was completely fraudulent and bogus, and seem to be just fine with the total destruction of the Constitution and the end to personal liberty ... I'd have to say Trump's chances are slim.
