根据众议院议长南希·佩洛西的说法,唐纳德·特朗普总统没有被宣布对他的弹劾罪名不成立,因为他没有经过有证人的适当审判。
在德国慕尼黑安全会议上接受美国有线电视新闻网克里斯汀·阿曼普的采访时,佩洛西说,尽管共和党参议员投票反对解除特朗普的职务。
佩洛西告诉阿曼普尔:“除非你有审判,否则你不能无罪开释,没有证人和文件,你也不能进行审判。”。“所以他可以说自己被无罪释放,头条新闻可以说无罪释放,但他将永远被弹劾,被打上这种烙印,而不是被证明无罪。”

佩洛西还抨击共和党参议员没有“勇气”对针对特朗普的弹劾指控投有罪票,尽管一些人承认总统在乌克兰问题上的行动是不正确的。
但是她赞扬了米特·罗姆尼,他是唯一一位投票判定两项弹劾条款中的一项罪名成立的共和党参议员。“上帝保佑他,”佩洛西说。
佩洛西也为自己的决定辩护撕掉她那份特朗普的国情咨文就在上周二他的演讲结束后不久。
民主党人庆祝这一病毒式的时刻,但共和党人指责她隐喻性地“撕毁”特朗普的成就和嘉宾。
佩洛西告诉美国有线电视新闻网,这“不是一个有计划的事情”,但是她决定做一些事情来“引起注意”,因为她在演讲中意识到“几乎每一页都有一些令人反感的东西”
她说:“我的一个失望之处是,尽管我们在立法方面做了很多工作,但无论是同工同酬、提高最低工资、枪支暴力保护,还是与我们的孩子有关的问题,这份清单还在继续。
“我们对此几乎没有压力。似乎如果你想得到媒体,你必须得到关注。我想,好吧,让我们关注他今天在这里说的不是真的这个事实。”
国情咨文发表后,佩洛西立即表示,她撕毁了这篇演讲,“因为考虑替代方案是一件礼貌的事情”,并称之为“一份误传的宣言”
白宫在推特上回应了这一事件,批评了佩洛西的行为。“佩洛西议长刚刚被撕成碎片:我们最后幸存的塔斯基吉飞行员之一。一个出生21周的孩子的存活。洛基·琼斯和凯拉·穆勒的哀悼家庭。服务人员与家人的团聚。这是她的遗产,”白宫说。
TRUMP WASN'T ACQUITTED BECAUSE THERE WAS NO PROPER TRIAL, SAYS PELOSI: 'HE'S IMPEACHED FOREVER… AND NOT VINDICATED'
President Donald Trump wasn't acquitted of the impeachment charges against him because he didn't have a proper trial with witnesses, according to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
In an interview with CNN's Christiane Amanpour at the Munich Security Conference in Germany, Pelosi said the president is "not vindicated" despite Republican senators voting against removing Trump from office.
"You can't have an acquittal unless you have a trial and you can't have a trial without witnesses and documents," Pelosi told Amanpour. "So he can say he was acquitted, and the headlines can say acquitted but he's impeached forever, branded with that and not vindicated."
The White House has been contacted for comment.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi attends the 56th Munich Security Conference (MSC) in Munich, Germany, on February 16, 2020.
Pelosi also slammed Republican senators for not having the "courage" to vote guilty on the impeachment charges against Trump, despite some acknowledging that the president's actions on Ukraine weren't right.
But she praised Mitt Romney, the sole Republican senator who voted to convict on one of two articles of impeachment. "God bless him," Pelosi said.
Pelosi also defended her decision to rip up her copy of Trump's State of the Union speech moments after his address ended last Tuesday.
Democrats celebrated the viral moment, but Republicans accused her of metaphorically "ripping up" Trump's accomplishments and guests.
Pelosi told CNN that it "wasn't a planned thing," but she decided to do something to "get attention" after realizing during the address that "almost every page had something in it that was objectionable."
She said: "One of my disappointments is the fact that with all that we have done legislatively, whether it's equal pay for equal work, raising the minimum wage, gun violence protection, issues that relate to our children, the list goes on.
"We had very little press on it. It seems if you want to get press, you have to get attention. I thought, well, let's get attention on the fact that what he said here today was not true."
Immediately after the State of the Union, Pelosi said that she tore up the speech "because it was the courteous thing to do considering the alternative" and branded it "a manifesto of mistruths."
The White House tweeted a response to the incident, criticizing Pelosi's actions. "Speaker Pelosi just ripped up: One of our last surviving Tuskegee Airmen. The survival of a child born at 21 weeks. The mourning families of Rocky Jones and Kayla Mueller. A service member's reunion with his family. That's her legacy," the White House said.
