Former President Trump Acquitted In Historic Second Impeachment Trial

The Senate voted 57 to 43 in favor of convicting former President Trump for inciting an insurrection at the US Capitol, but fell short of the required two-thirds majority, resulting in his acquittal. Seven Republicans joined Democrats in the vote. The trial included a compromise on witness testimony, with a statement about Trump's remarks during a call with Kevin McCarthy. Despite the acquittal, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell held Trump responsible for the Capitol violence, stating that the rioters acted on Trump's wishes.
