Donald Trump acquitted at impeachment trial
US President Donald Trump has been acquitted on two articles of impeachment following a brief trial. The Senate, run by his fellow Republicans, voted to acquit the president by 52-48 on charges of abuse of power, and by 53-47 on obstruction of Congress. Trump is only the third president in US history to face impeachment, after being accused of putting political pressure on Ukraine to smear his Democratic rival Joe Biden.
