Lets say a crazy thing happens and the senate doesn't remove him from office and he is re-elected.

Then, down the line, dems gain power over housr and senate by large margin.

Can they then impeach him again and remove from office?

I don't get how he'd be eligible for 2020 if he got impeached.

In theory it would be double jeopardy but I am not sure that applies.

The senate has to vote to convict him. Otherwise he is acquitted.

From wiki:
The Senate shall have the sole Power to try all Impeachments. When sitting for that Purpose, they shall be on Oath or Affirmation. When the President of the United States is tried, the Chief Justice shall preside: And no Person shall be convicted without the Concurrence of two-thirds of the Members present.
Judgment in Cases of Impeachment shall not extend further than to removal from Office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any Office of honor, Trust or Profit under the United States; but the Party convicted shall nevertheless be liable and subject to Indictment, Trial, Judgment and Punishment, according to Law.
