The White House ripped Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi on Wednesday just moments after she announced the seven lawmakers who will serve as the House managers in the Senate impeachment trial against President Donald Trump.
“The only thing Speaker Pelosi has achieved with this sham, illegitimate impeachment process, is to prove she is focused on politics instead of the American people. The Speaker lied when she claimed this was urgent and vital to national security because when the articles passed, she held them for an entire month in an egregious effort to garner political support. She failed and the naming of these managers does not change a single thing. President Trump has done nothing wrong,†The White House said in a statement after Pelosi held a press conference with the seven Democratic impeachment managers.
“He looks forward to having the due process rights in the Senate that Speaker Pelosi and House Democrats denied to him, and expects to be fully exonerated. In the meantime, after President Trump signs the historic China Trade Deal greatly benefiting the people of this country, he will continue working and winning for all Americans, while the Democrats will continue only working against the President,†the White House statement continued.
