Standing beside the US flag, Pelosi firmly said that the impeachment approved by the 230 votes of councilors was not something done on behalf of the party, but something they had to do as a form of responsibility for the oath they took to the constitution because of Trump's actions which were considered to have been done. abuse the position of president.

But the impeachment is seen by Trump as a meaningless bluff. Moreover, since December 18, 2019 until now, the US House of Representatives has not followed up on their impeachment. Trump also claims that Pelosi's impeachment simply shows his hatred for the Republican Party.

"He (Pelosi) hates the Republican Party. He hates everyone who voted for me and the Republican Party," Trump told reporters during his Christmas vacation in Mar-a-Lago.

Pelosi-Trump's relationship from the start was not good. Pelosi's tough attitude has always angered Trump, who has a long history of attacking women with strong identities. But Trump's taunts have increasingly served as a form of personal grudge in the months leading up to his impeachment.

In October 2019, Trump attacked Pelosi calling him mentally ill. In November 2019, Trump also claimed that Pelosi's tooth was "falling out". In his six-page letter to Pelosi, Trump also accused him of lying when Pelosi said he was praying for Trump and accused Pelosi's intended prayers of negative prayers. Undaunted, Pelosi is still running to impeach Trump on December 18, 2019.
