Portraying the 2021 impeachment, in particular, as a lowering of the standard for impeachment is absurd. Trump is precisely the sort of person who would have worried the founders. The 2021 impeachment was not single-party, was not for "unpopular decisions," did not concern a subpoena, and there is no support for the notion that an impeachment requires a violation of a criminal statute.
Every Republican who voted against it, particularly the Senators who voted to certify the election results but voted to acquit Trump, should be ashamed to look people in they eye. They had the tools to save us from all of this. Gallagher has a very impressive resume, so I will presume this is deceit rather than ignorance.
