I've already seen it spun as "solid bipartisan support says Trump is guilty of insurrection."
While parts of this statement are technically almost sort of bordering on true, it's incredibly misleading, incorrect and, you know, not how trials work.
But, yeah, I've honestly seen people claiming that the outcome of this sham "trial" declares Trump guilty of insurrection. It's batshit insane, but there you have it.
Also the only trial where the judge is also one of the jurors! And lets not even get into the legal miscarriage arguments that can be when said judge has already deemed the defendant guilty before the trial.
A solid bipartisan majority in both chambers of Congress finding Trump guilty of inciting an insurrection.
Now points to this option: 14th Amendment disqualification from future office for those who swore an oath and gave aid and comfort to insurrection.

Imagine the utter confusion on a judge's face if a prosecutor found out that 9 of 12 jurors voted guilty on a criminal case, and he just took that as a win.
"Counselor... we have a hung jury. I'm going to have to declare a mistrial. Why are you celebrating?"
"Your honor, a solid bipartisan majority of the jury declared him guilty!"
"... okay, but it needs to be unanimous."
"Yeah, but that means he's basically guilty. I can use this against him in another case!"
"... ... How did you get here and why are you in my court?"
Underlining precisely why they wanted to do this in the Senate ... the plan, all along, was to pull the kinds of stunts that would get you kicked out of any court worthy of the name.
After 4 years of endless mockery and hatred of Trump by the news media and entertainment mediums, you would think that maybe, just maybe, the normies would start thinking about whether the things Trump does or doesn’t do is actually worth getting mad about?
It’s exhausting thinking about how the media would never shut up about Trump, and I just can’t wrap my head around how the normies just accepted everything the media had to say as gospel.
I wonder how normies are going to rationalize this.

According to the prosecution, the constitution and due process don't matter. That was literally his argument.
It's the only trial I've seen where the original judge said, "Fuck it, I'm out"
i wonder if anyone's going to fall on the sword for putting fake evidence up

That's certainly an interesting way to spin a "not guilty" verdict.
Perhaps such a standard should be applied to certain members of the current administration.

"Despite his acquittal, he's mostly guilty!'

They'll just process it as an excuse to escalate their hatred and paranoia.
