No US President has been removed. Two, Andrew Johnson and Bill Clinton were impeached by the House. Neither were convicted by the Senate and, therefore, not removed. Nixon resigned because he was going to be impeached and probably convicted.

Sorry, I took you post to mean a US president rather than any president. However, impeachment is not removal but an indictment. Conviction results in removal.
