Status Quo Ante

Democrats should demand that if Trump is impeached or convicted due to Russian election interference that all appointments and executive orders be voided and only caretaker appointments are made by a two thirds majority of the senate until the next presidential election. All appointments and executive orders must be considered as "Fruit of the poisonous tree". And democrats should start saying this publicly as soon as possible.

And therefore can't imagine how it could be implemented.

Edited to add what I like to post as many places as possible, about the Trump administration:

Kakistocracy - a term meaning a state or country run by the worst, least qualified, or most unscrupulous citizens. The word was first coined by English author Thomas Love Peacock in 1829, but was rarely used until the 21st century.
