Had Trump been convicted, the Senate would have moved to bar the 45th president from holding federal office ever again.<\/p>\n<p>The seven GOP senators who joined with all Democrats in finding Trump guilty were: Sens. Richard Burr of North Carolina, Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, Susan Collins of Maine, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Mitt Romney of Utah, Ben Sasse of Nebraska and Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Read the rest of the article here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/trump-acquitted-in-second-impeachment-trial-for-inciting-jan-6-capitol-riot\">Fox News<\/a>.
