I'm not sure what you are trying to say. They didn't "find him not guilty"
They voted 57-43 to Convict, falling 10 votes shy of what is needed, so he is technically acquitted. Therefore they did not "find him not guilty"
Its a distinction without much of a difference, however.
Within the Context of the CO case, he was not found guilty.
Therefore their case is patently absurd on its face.

The purpose of the Senate trial was to find the POTUS either guilty or not guilty. As much as that seems to pain you, a finding of "not guilty" is the consequence of rabid anti-Trump Congressional mouth-foamers bringing the bullshite charge in the first place. In our system of innocent until proven guilty acquittal equates to innocence. Innocence equates to not guilty.

Youre an ambulance chaser, amirite?
Otherwise you would know that people cannot be convicted by a 9-3 vote of a jury. In fact, theres a fairly well known Supremes case where the common man is treated better than a president. They have to have a unanimous decision in order to be convicted. Not just a 2/3rds majority
