Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton suggested in a tweet Wednesday that an acquittal in former President Trump’s impeachment trial would only come as a result of “the jury includ[ing] his co-conspirators.”
“If Senate Republicans fail to convict Donald Trump, it won’t be because the facts were with him or his lawyers mounted a competent defense. It will be because the jury includes his co-conspirators,” Clinton tweeted Wednesday.

Clinton’s tweet came after the second day of arguments from House impeachment managers before the Senate. Reps. David Cicilline (D-R.I.) and Joaquin Castro (D-Texas) attempted to draw a direct line between the rioters and the former president, citing at least one person reading a tweet from Trump attacking the vice president over a megaphone during the riot.

This is such a satisfying question and I hope Republicans who vote no are made to answer it. https://t.co/f2Gd0ML4dW
