When the President and the Vice president are corrupt then who takes over When the whole Chain is corrupt then who takes over?
If the President is impeached AND found guilty by Congress, the Vice-President becomes President.

Note that just impeaching and charging ALL of those 3 could take a President's entire term (4 years). This is why it's important to Vote and to Vote Wisely.
