Almost as good as 2016.
I own a restaurant so I have to hold my tongue.
Damn. It's so hard.

Well when you allow 0 witnesses to testify it kind of lends illegitimacy to the outcome in my opinion. I won't dwell on it though because all signs led to him holding on to office. It is extremely difficult to kick a president out of office.

I'm not going to cry about the outcome, most of us knew it was inevitable. Even if a majority of people left of center and a good amount of people on the right thought he was guilty. Even if faced with enough proof to convict most of us knew how difficult it would have been for more people like Romney to vote against trump.
It is what it is and with so much division and chaos amongst the Democrats we might be force fed another 4 years of trump with a minority percentage of the American voters approval. *shrugs shoulders* I can only hope that Trump's foul language, twitter barbarism, childish behavior, lack of decorum and diplomacy does not become the norm in American politics.
a sizable chunk of people on the right thought that Trump was guilty
Did you seriously link WAPO? you do yourself a disservice, but you're use to that, hmmm?

It seems some are thinking in the now and not for generations ahead.
It would be useless if the Dems think ahead... Trump is a time traveler, he's got them beat in all world-lines.
I'm not talking about the Democratic Americans.
Trump has repeatedly vowed to "ensure" that the United States has the "cleanest air" and the "cleanest water," but his administration's efforts to slash environmental regulations have been extensive.
In Trump's first two years in office, the Environmental Protection Agency's rate of deregulation was so high that an internal watchdog has said the agency "exceeded" its self-established goals. And in the third year of his presidency, agencies, not just the EPA, have continued the environmental regulation rollbacks. His administration has even moved to rollback some protections established under the 50-year-old Clean Air Act.
Breaking away from environmental restrictions deemed cumbersome or unfair also became a global issue early in Trump's presidency, with his decision to pull out of the Paris climate accords -- an agreement among several countries to combat climate change.

This behavior does not seem to care about the future 😔 does it?
Which specific regulation that has been rolled back has led to less clean water and air?

WASHINGTON — The Trump administration on Thursday announced the repeal of a major Obama-era clean water regulation that had placed limits on polluting chemicals that could be used near streams, wetlands and other bodies of water.
The rollback of the 2015 measure, known as the Waters of the United States rule, adds to a lengthy list of environmental rules that the administration has worked to weaken or undo over the past two and a half years.
Those efforts have focused heavily on eliminating restrictions on fossil fuel pollution, including coal-fired power plants, automobile tailpipes and methane emissions, but have also touched on asbestos and chemical hazards like pesticides.
An immediate effect of the clean water repeal is that polluters will no longer need a permit to discharge potentially harmful substances into many streams and wetlands. But the measure, which is expected to take effect in a matter of weeks, has implications far beyond the pollution that will now be allowed to flow freely into waterways.

It's too easy to fail like lemmings.
