He'll be even more feeble than he is now in 4 years, but someone every bit as scummy as he is will probably run.

They'd need to kick him out of officer prior to the 20th for him to lose the allowances and pension. The way the law is written, if he resigns or his term expires, he is entitled to the benefits. Only being removed from office by the Senate prevents his benefits. They could try to amend the law after the fact to say anyone impeached after leaving officer is disqualified too. 

The secret service detail is a different law and would continue regardless. Again, they could amend that law.
