It's a meaningless gesture meant to, I dunno, act as foreplay for the senate? That's the only reason I can see them doing this, it's pointless except self-satisfaction. If he is the monster they paint him to be, impeachment wouldn't matter. If he isn't the monster they paint him to be, impeachment STILL wouldn't matter, because he'd be out the door anyways.
It's educated speculation since it hasn't happened to anyone since the former presidents act legislation was enacted. Some people, myself included, believe the Democrats would strip him of everything, protection included, because they are that vindictive. (Also clearly scared of him. A dead man can't run a media network.) This source, however, cites the Congressional Research Service who does contradict me and they believe Trump would only lose his pension and travel benefits but would retain secret service detail. Doesn't mention if he still gets a library or not.
Two Scoops. Two Impeachments that mean nothing!

It would remove his secret service protection, making him easier to assassinate.
Where are you getting this?
