   Former President Trump was acquitted in an unprecedented second   
   impeachment trial on the charge of inciting an insurrection for   
   the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, making him the first and only president   
   to be impeached and acquitted twice in history.   
      
   A majority of senators found Trump guilty on Saturday in a 57-43   
   vote, but the number fell short of the supermajority needed to   
   convict the president. Had Trump been convicted, the Senate   
   would have moved to bar the 45th president from holding federal   
   office ever again.   
      
   The seven GOP senators who joined with all Democrats in finding   
   Trump guilty were: Sens. Richard Burr of North Carolina, Bill   
   Cassidy of Louisiana, Susan Collins of Maine, Lisa Murkowski of   
   Alaska, Mitt Romney of Utah, Ben Sasse of Nebraska and Pat   
   Toomey of Pennsylvania.   
      
   Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., who presided over the trial announced   
   the vote fell short of the two-thirds majority need and   
   therefore Trump is "hereby acquitted of the charge."   
      
   The acquittal means that as of now Trump can leave the door open   
   to another White House bid in 2024, though senators have hinted   
   they may still try to bar him from office in a separate 14th   
   Amendment measure.

   Trump praised the victory, thanked his supporters and promised   
   he'd soon emerge with a "vision for a bright, radiant, and   
   limitless American future."   
      
   The former president, who has largely stayed silent since his   
   impeachment, also took aim at his opponents.

   POLITICAL FUTURE: 'MUCH TO SHARE'   
      
   "This has been yet another phase of the greatest witch hunt in   
   the history of our country," Trump said in a statement. "No   
   president has ever gone through anything like it, and it   
   continues because our opponents cannot forget the almost 75   
   million people, the highest number ever for a sitting president,   
   who voted for us just a few short months ago."   
      
   Trump's second impeachment trial arguments lasted just five   
   days, making it the shortest in presidential history. The   
   previous record was held by Trump in 2020 when his trial related   
   to inviting foreign interference into the election spanned 21   
   days.   
      
   Crazed cunt crazy Nancy Pelosi loses again.
