Trump acquitted in second impeachment trial, seven Republicans join Democrats to convict

Former President Trump has once again walked away with an acquittal after his second impeachment trial. Ed O'Keefe reports on the fallout of the vote and how it's dividing the Republican party.

The broadcast has earned a prestigious Peabody Award, a Polk Award, four News & Documentary Emmys, three Daytime Emmys and the 2017 Edward R. Murrow Award for Best Newscast. The broadcast was also honored with an Alfred I. duPont-Columbia Award as part of CBS News division-wide coverage of the shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut.

[Zero_cool]

He did it. He made democrats cry again🤣

[HotVoodooWitch]

I like how CBS (emphasis on the second and third letters) concentrates on the turncoat senators rather than on the acquittal. Typical.

[MelissaR]

Is anyone really surprised? This had been nothing but a joke to try to impeach a person who no longer holds office.

[jonniehobby]

yes, completely ignore the evidence proving his innocence. Excellent reporting!

[Kevin_]

Sad that the democRATs wasted time and tax dollars on yet another impeachment.

[DemonDog]

I just got off the phone with Mr Trump. He said "see you in 2024".

[petebarrett]

Now on to the next Democrat goal: $6 gas prices and soaring food costs!!!

This is getting amusing, when is the next impeachment trial?
