Get him elected, so Grimes loses, then recall him.

I thought your position was ill thought out and based on ignorance. Now that you have said this, you've given me the evidence to demonstrate it.

You can't recall a US Senator. Recalls only work on State positions. There is no constitutional provision for the recall of a US Senator or Representative.

“There is no constitutional provision for the recall of a US Senator or Representative.”

They did try to use impeachment against a Senator once, but the Senate dismissed it without actually deciding whether impeachment could apply to a representative or not.
