they already won in the minds of the public because most people only skim headlines

Same case with Trump being impeached, let alone it happening twice.

It's analogous to being arrested, getting to court, then 'being found not guilty'/'having charges dismissed' except many NPCs are too fucking retarded to realize that.

Arrests can quite literally mean no lasting legal matters in the end if any subsequent charges go nowhere, yet going by many the fact an arrest/impeachment was made is enough to affirm that clearly something must have happened and therefore anyone involved must be guilty of said situations.

Then again this is the same unhinged group that pushes that false-accusations aren't a thing and nobody would ever lie about such things because "what would they have to gain from it?" which is as much a stupid question as it is insidious to suggest. Such accusations don't go away despite what may be found out as the Rolling Stone gang rape story highlights. In addition there are still countless stories of similar things that tend to have fairly limited endings, most of them suicide of the accused because of how much their life gets ruined by the accusation alone despite any evidence they may turn out in their defense [if that is even allowed given some outright draconian rules in play there].
