He can run again if he is impeached House but not thrown out of office in the subsequent Senate trial. If the Senate finds him guilty then he can’t run again. In Trump’s case, even if he is impeached, it is highly unlikely that there would be a ⅔ vote in the Senate. Some think that impeachment would help him to fire up his base and get him re-elected.
^ Incorrect.
Neither impeachment nor conviction prevents someone from running again. Disqualification for future office requires a second vote that can only take place after conviction.
Clinton was impeached but NOT kicked out of office; so I think that trump could run again!!! It is highly unlikely that the Senate would rule that he should be kicked out of office. IF the Reps felt that way, they would probably run someone other than him in 2020!!!
