House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) issued a formal response to President Donald Trump’s acquittal in a Thursday morning press conference, saying her House managers did a “magnificent job” in presenting their case.

“Next year we will have a new president of the United States ... that is an absolute imperative for our country” and “for our Constitution,” Pelosi told reporters at the Capitol, adding that “he’s impeached forever.” Trump is “never getting rid of that scar,” Pelosi remarked.
