They will be removed from office
Clinton was impeached but not officially removed from office, and Nixon was to be impeached but resigned before he could be impeached.
The President could be impeached and removed from office after an impeachment trial. After he was removed from office, he could then be prosecuted like any other person.
Only two Presidents have been impeached in US history, but both were acquitted at their Senate trials, so there has never been a "fully impeached" President, assuming you mean one who was removed from office. Andrew Johnson was impeached in 1868 for violation of the Tenure of Office Act; Bill Clinton was impeached in 1998 for obstruction of justice.
Yes, he can be impeached and removed by the state legislature.

The president must be formally charged with a crime (impeached) by the House of Reps. and then must stand trial in the US Senate. If convicted, he/she is removed. Impeached does not mean removed. We have impeached two presidents, but have never removed one.

No Us President has been removed from office via the impeachment process. There have been two presidents who have been impeached. In 1868, Andrew Johnson was impeached by the House for violating certain statutes related to government processes; in 1998, Bill Clinton was impeached for perjury and obstruction of justice. However, neither of these presidents was convicted by the Senate, so neither of them was removed from office.
No US presidents have been impeached and convicted and so removed from office.
President Andrew Johnson was impeached by the House of Representatives, but not removed from office by the Senate.
The House of Representatives impeached Bill Clinton in 1998. Clinton was tried, but not convicted. He is the second president in history to be impeached.
