If you mean the 34 felonies, that judge effectively said his punishment would be nothing. Which is very fun by the way - when has a non rich person gotten to shrug off dozens of felony convictions? He was never charged, as far as I’m aware, in connection to the coup attempt.
Gonna get real pedantic here. It’s passé that “impeachment” is the part the House of Representatives does, then the Senate gets their vote. If 2/3 of the Senage agree the person did the bad, this means they are “convicted” by the Senate which automatically leads to removal from office. So, a conviction in reference to the broader “impeachment” process comes with very real consequences, by definition.

Impeachments without a result are also convictions without consequences. If anything they showed him he could do whatever he wanted, so he has.
