Portland protesters gather over impeachment acquittal

February 5, 2020

The Senate's acquittal of President Trump on two articles of impeachment officially brought the trial to an end but hundreds of people in Portland still gathered in a public display of opposition.

Rep. Suzanne Bonamici said, "Acquitting Trump without a fair trial sets a dangerous precedent for current and future Presidents to exploit. History will judge the Senate for failing to uphold its Constitutional duty to provide checks and balances".
