Pelosi: He was not... there was no acquittal. You can’t have an acquittal unless you have a trial. And you can’t have a trial when you have witnesses and documents. So he can say he was acquitted, and the headlines can say “Acquitted,” but he’s impeached forever.


No, basically as a legal matter the House failed to present a “true bill,” that is, any evidence to substantiate that a high crime or misdemeanor might have occurred.

Yes, "Trump sucks!" does not meet any criteria as evidence of a high crime. Except in their world.
