Also as a business Major I never went much past Government 101. So can someone answer the following simple questions for me, so I am clear. Thought I was, be now I'm not so sure:

Can Congress impeach POTUS (aka charge with a crime) if they feel such a crime has occurred?

If impeached and voted to be removed from office can POTUS be subject to greater punishment?

Can the VP and Cabinet remove POTUS if they agree to do so?

Congress can impeach if they feel a crime has been committed, but that's not the same as being charged with a crime. It serves as a mechanism to remove someone from office 

The POTUS can .still be subject to any criminal charges, but as zona said, it hasn't happened.
