Bill Clinton left office with 66% approval after being acquitted by the senate 55 (acquit) -45 and 50-50. Acquittal actually gave him a big bump.

But there is a huge difference between the two.
Clinton lied under oath when answering a highly personal question in front of his wife that had nothing to do with the investigation. This was (for lack of a better term) a "nothing burger".
If there is any level of collusion between the Trump campaign and the Russian government, Trump would most likely be impeached and removed from office. Even if there is no collusion, they could try to pin him with obstruction of justice. At the same time we have no idea what his finances is turning up.
