I remember the headline after Bill Clinton not only didn’t get ⅔ of the Senate voting to convict, he got “NOT EVEN A MAJORITY”, and the Democrats went on to say that this amounted to complete exoneration. Here it comes again. The main difference is that Clinton was already in his 2nd term and prohibited by the Constitution from running for re-election.
