senators
we proved he betrayed his country we
proved he betrayed
his constitution we proved he betrayed
his oath of office the startling thing
to recognize now
is that he is even betraying the mob
this trial in the final analysis is not
about donald trump the country and the
world know who donald trump is
this trial is about who we are
who we are their story was based not
on evidence but on the sheer personal
and political animus
the flimsy theory of incitement you
heard from the house managers could
be used to impeach indict
or expel countless other political
leaders
the question is on the article of
impeachment
senators i'll say you
ms baldwin guilty
mr barrasso mr barrasso not guilty
the eas are 57
the nays are 43.
two-thirds of the senator is president
not having voted guilty
the senate judges that the respondent
donald john trump former president
united states
is not guilty as charged in the article
of impeachment
it is therefore ordered and a judge
that they said donald john trump be and
he is hereby
acquitted of the charge in sid article
former president trump's actions
preceded
the riot or a disgraceful
disgraceful dereliction
of duty there's no question none
that president trump is practically
and morally responsible
for provoking the events of the day
no question about it
the people who stormed this building
believed they were acting on the wishes
and instructions of their president
and having that belief was a
foreseeable consequence
of the growing crescendo of
false statements conspiracy theories
and reckless hyperbole which the
defeated president kept
shouting into the largest megaphone
on planet earth
