The Democrats tried to “tar every single American” who voted for Donald Trump as exactly as bad as the people who tore up the Capitol building on January 6, according to Sky News host James Morrow. Former President Trump was acquitted in the impeachment trial on Saturday (local time) as the Senate could not come up with the required two-thirds majority to convict him. Seven Republicans broke ranks to vote to convict the president taking the vote to 57-43, but the Democrats needed 17 GOP Senators to vote with them to achieve what would be a landmark victory. Mr Morrow said the whole impeachment was a “charade” as the Democrats were only trying to “stick a nail in the coffin of Trump”. “It was also about trying to tar every single American who supported Donald Trump with the mantle of being exactly as bad as the people who tore up the Capitol building,” he said. “That’s a very sinister thing they’re trying to do, essentially cancel 75 million Americans.”
