There was a trial, and Trump got to participate. It just wasn't a criminal trial, since this wasn't a criminal penalty. It's very common for there to be civil consequences to criminal acts, and for people to be subject to the civil consequences even if there isn't a criminal trial - or even if they're acquitted in a criminal trial - as long as there is a civil trial.

And how does a single state have jurisdiction in a federal election matter? What's amazing is that this went on as long as it did.
