‘Speaking on the Senate floor on Feb. 5, Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C., explained why he would vote later that day to acquit President Donald Trump of the articles of impeachment. “Let’s vote no on these motions today and get back to working for the American people,” Scott said. After the Senate voted last week to bar new witness testimony and subpoenas for documents, Trump’s acquittal has seemed all but assured. The House of Representatives impeached Trump in December on two articles of impeachment–abuse of power and obstruction of Congress.’
