SO ACA is GONE, Trumpski will be acquitted....

.....he'll brag about repealing the ACA (though the courts largely did it, not Trump), he'll brag about his wall (though he stole money from Pentagon and our troops for it) he'll brag about his tax scam and be re-elected (honestly that last part I doubt - unless Republicans find a way to cheat again and they WILL be pulling every trick in the book including Barr's sham investigation into Brennan and other crap to convince his base - BUT his base is not the majority and WE need to win the EC because the nasty thing still exists unfortunately - and besides, he's pissed off and fucked over so many people - many won't vote for the sociopath a second time).

So no ACA now....wondering if new Dem POTUS can restore the individual mandate and thus the entire law and include a public option, or do they have to start over now?

The court ruled that the mandate is unconstitutional, but that had already been taken out by the Republican Congress.

Trump is unlikely to be removed but that is not the same as an acquitted. If 4 Republicans split and vote for impeachment he will be found guilty, not acquitted, but not approved. The question of acquittal has not been decided.
