As pissed as we all are about the circus that occurred in the senate, he was acquitted by the rules of the senate.
He may not be acquitted in any of our minds, but as far as the US Government is concerned, which is the ruling body on this subject, he was acquitted.
It is entirely false to say anything else is more accurate.
