Bunnie is reading the "and" incorrectly.
If you read the "and" like her, the word has to point both ways.
If the "and" means that they can't disqualify without removing, then it also means that they can't remove without disqualifying.
Yet, for every impeachment proceeding we have a record of, the Senate has voted on the two questions separately. They view the "and" as a list of options, as in, Burger King Whoppers come with lettuce "and" tomato.
The founders didn't make a mistake here.
Senators of the past didn't make a mistake.
Bunnie and 44 Republican senators are the ones making the mistake.
