Trump Acquitted!

I can get away with anything. They'll still vote for me.

Donald J. Trump will be the third U.S. president to be impeached while in office. He joins Andrew Johnson and Bill Clinton as a president not removed from office for "high crimes and misdemeanors."

The conclusion of the sham trial of President Donald J. Trump. The Republican-controlled Senate once again hands unfiltered power to a man who believes he can do whatever he wants and never be held accountable for it.

That means he will continue to ask shady individuals to help him win his election by any means necessary. He will continue to make remarks about "soliciting Russia or foreign adversary" to investigate a political rival.

His "perfect calls" with foreign leaders or opposition leaders will be no longer scrutinized. It will set the door for future presidents to conduct the very same thing. He will go down in history as either one of the worst or least productive presidents in modern history.

Republicans will no hold the title of giving a pass to a despot. They can no longer complain about a Democratic president using executive orders to get things done. They can no longer threaten impeachment on a Democratic president when they conduct something they don't like.

Conservative talk radio will pretend to be dumb when it comes to an actual scandal. They'll just make up another scandal to keep Americans angry. They'll watch Fox News or read Breitbart because they are "God honest" about Trump and his vision of America.

Didn't the Simpsons predict that Trump will drive us a crisis?

We already knew the fix was in from the start. The Senate wasn't likely to remove Trump from office.

Second, the Senate wasn't interested in hearing evidence or witnesses who were there.

The White House refused to hand over documents and key officials to the House of Representatives.

Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) voted with Democrats to convict Trump

Trump and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) have not spoken to each other since October. The tension was boldly seen at the State of the Union when Trump refused to shake her hand and Pelosi ripping up the packet of his address.

The only Republican to support convicting Trump was the 2012 U.S. presidential candidate now U.S. Senator from Utah, Mitt Romney.

Romney voted with Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), Sen. Angus King (I-ME) and the 45 Democratic Senators to convict Trump of obstruction of Congress and abuse of power.

The 52 Republican senators voted to not convict Trump. That included the Grim Riper, Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY), who vowed to work with the White House to make this a "speedy" trial.

Yes, this trial lasted only three weeks and ended shortly after the State of the Union.

The senators Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ), Doug Jones (D-AL) and Joe Manchin (D-WV) finally grew a pair and support the party in the conviction.

The Trump team praised the Senate for acquittal. They believed that Republicans held the line despite them grumbling about the antics.

The three shaky Democrats sided with their party.

Manchin has pushed for a censure of the president. It's not likely to pass the Senate.

Okay, Trump and his allies have promised to undermine our election and the candidates running for president. They will stop at nothing to make sure they keep control of Washington. They will run this country to the ground and keep Americans divided. They are going to push extremism to its limits.

Folks will now be threatening lawmakers and Trump. They will be so worked up by politics and division they'll carry out terrorist attacks on their fellow Americans.

Don't worry about the Islamic State and al Qaeda, we might want to be careful about your neighbors who get worked up over social media, the cable news and rancor of politicians in Washington, DC.
