GOP, led by Mitch McConnell, largely sticks with Trump during
Saturday verdict
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."
