About this video
Senators voted 57-43 on whether to convict Trump of high crimes and misdemeanors for "willfully inciting violence against the Government of the United States."
Every Democrat voted to find him "guilty," the question technically before the Senate, and they were joined by seven GOP senators - falling short of the necessary 67 votes, or two-thirds majority, needed for conviction.
Senators who voted to convict Trump:
- Sen. Richard Burr (R-NC)
- Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME)
- Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA)
- Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK)
- Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT)
- Sen. Ben Sasse (R-NE)
- Sen. Pat Toomey (R-PA)
- Every single Democrat
Moments after the trial ended Trump stated: “Our movement to Make America Great Again has only just begun”
