The Senate Acquitted Trump, But He Isn’t Out of the Woods Yet

With the impeachment trial in the rearview mirror, prosecutors around the country have opened criminal investigations into former President Donald Trump’s conduct — and are considering bringing criminal charges against him.

After holding a week-long impeachment trial, the Senate voted to acquit Trump by a vote of 57-43. Preet and Anne break down the arguments made by both sides’ lawyers in the Senate trial, and the implications of Trump’s acquittal.

The trial had its fair share of drama when, on its final day, the House impeachment managers sought to call witnesses to testify before the Senate. Preet and Anne analyze the managers’ decision to stand down and move forward with the vote on conviction.
