Senate Acquits Trump on Second Impeachment 57-43

| Trump 45 & 47

The Senate votes 57-43 to convict Trump on incitement of insurrection — the most bipartisan vote to convict a president, but 10 short of the two-thirds majority required. 7 Republicans join all Democrats in voting guilty: Collins, Murkowski, Romney, Sasse, Toomey, Cassidy, and Burr. McConnell votes to acquit but gives a searing floor speech blaming Trump for the Capitol attack. Trump calls it a 'witch hunt.'
