    They can try but doubt an actual removal would take place. However they have no morals so they’ll probably try

      They have a supermajority on the Senate.

      The law says that until the trial is resolved, she just refuse herself from all cases. So they can just import her and then draft their feet before holding the trial, and keep her from ruling in the gerrymandering case. That’s probably just likely since if they do remove her, the governor can appoint her replacement.
