They can't sentence him to jail and I've never heard of the barred from office idea being used.
Give me an example instead of touching yourself?

Obviously they can’t sentence him to jail, this isn’t a criminal conviction.
Barred from office is quite literally one of the penalties of being convicted in an impeachment trial. Congress does not seek that penalty; it occurs by default if you’re convicted. I think you should go educate yourself on what penalties occur when someone is convicted in their impeachment trial.
