re: #19 Wendell Zurkowitz ((slave to the waffle light))

It is for a crime committed and an impeachment which initiated while he was still President.

And if Congress votes to pun on it, then let them bring civil charges against him…

All that is needed is for the crime to be committed while he was in office (also before he was in office?); British practice when the founding fathers wrote the Constitution permitted impeachment after the official left office and that was also American policy in the 19th Century in the Belknap impeachment.
