Enough senators have cast “not guilty” votes to acquit Donald Trump of inciting the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. The vote will give the former president a historic second acquittal in an impeachment trial.

Enough senators have cast 'not guilty' votes to acquit Donald Trump of impeachment charge, incitement of insurrection.

The verdict, on a vote of 57-43, is all but certain to influence not only the former president's political future but that of the senators sworn to deliver impartial justice as jurors. Seven Republicans joined all Democrats to convict, but it was far from the two-third threshold required. Trump, unrepentant, welcomed the his second impeachment acquittal and said his movement “has only just begun.” He slammed the trial as “yet another phase of the greatest witch hunt in the history of our Country.”

Biden has hardly weighed in on the proceedings and was spending the weekend with family at the presidential retreat in Camp David, Maryland. Trump’s lawyers countered that Trump’s words were not intended to incite the violence and that impeachment is nothing but a “witch hunt” designed to prevent him from serving in office again.

“Mr. Trump is innocent of the charges against him,” said Michael van der Veen. “The act of incitement never happened.”

The Swamp Creatures drowned in their own slime!

That’s very bad fir usa

Foregone conclusion

USA has long ago lost the moral high ground to meddle anyone else's elections. I love that MarvelStudios made movies where they say certain people can topple goverments and the audience take it in stride.

In English.... he and his people paid a shitload of money to those who could acquit him so he can get away with it.

Ittl catch up to em.

FUCK YEA !!!

I can remember when a good politician had to be 75 percent ability and 25 percent actor, but I can well see the day when the reverse could be true. — Harry S. Truman

I am so disgusted by this. He is a criminal and should be held accountable.

good.

There has never been a clearer case for conviction. We will have the curse of Trump, his children, and his enablers to deal with in our miserable foreseeable future. Let's hope state courts can serve a well deserved justice to them all.

third time lucky. There will definitely be a third time.......

....and expose 43 traitors.

This is fucking ridiculous

Prosecution filled with proven lies of altered quotes! GTFO! They’re afraid he will run again and win and he probably will! 🖕

Look at that smug bastard....

Greatest POTUS 👊

How unamerican and insulting to those who gave their lives to protect our Constitution. They voted to save their positions of power not in the interest of we, the people. Vote these traitors out! WeWillNotForget

He will still be the only president impeached 2 times

The US is the biggest laughingstock of the world.

Swine the lot of em

The lies continued with his legal counsel. We can only pray that he will be charged criminally and convicted by New York State which will make him Ineligible to hold the office of the presidency.

One more for a hat-trick

🤬

Let’s be honest. Trump’s defense attorney could literally be a fruit bowl and the Republicans would still acquit him with the Dems caving as well.

“He was acquitted twice!” A real president wouldn’t be impeached to begin with.
