The fact that they aren’t part of the same process is just mind boggling stupid.
Being impeached is NOT the same as being removed from presidency. In fact, there have been 4 total impeachments in U.S history. None have lead to removal of office.
I don’t disagree with your message or tone. I just see people online say “He was impeached, and nothing happened”.
No, it did. He WAS impeached. That’s what being impeached looks like. A little astrict on your presidency, and a seperate vote for removal of office. He was never voted out of office. But both astricts will remain there for the rest of history.

They are part of the same process. Or did you mean a single vote to remove? With the American bicameral legislature, that’s not really possible.
