Just like the Brexit vote, we are stuck with these results.

Of course people already knew this, which kind of boggles the mind why we keep getting these vote again posts.

Only one roll of the dice allowed.

We have to either impeach him (House) and convict him (Senate), or remove him via the 25th amendment. Those are the only processes to change the election. In both cases we would get President Pence.
