‘Victory on the impeachment hoax’ – the reaction of Donald Trump at the end of his trial in the US Senate.
The president was charged with abusing his power by pressuring Ukraine to investigate rival Joe Biden, then obstructing a Congressional investigation into what happened.

So what does a strengthened Trump mean for America and the rest of the world?
