Howlin, Article II, section 4, does not define Impeachment in the same way you are. High crimes and Misdemeanors can happen at any point in the politician's life, Congress has to be the one to decide if the articles of Impeachment have any substantial merit to them. If impeached, the Senate conducts the trial and there is no appeal allowed, they are the final word in the matter.

[Howlin]

That's ridiculous. It cannot be retroactive.
