We have a way to impeach the President if they break the law.


They can also be prosecuted. There's nothing that implies that impeachment is the only solution and the Constitution makes it pretty clear that criminal prosecution and impeachment are separate

In fact, Trump's own lawyer in his impeachment defense argued that he shouldn't be impeached after having left office because prosecution was viable.
