WASHINGTON (AP) — And then she tore up the speech.

No sooner did President Donald Trump finish his State of the Union address then House Speaker Pelosi ripped it in two.
Right there, on the dais behind him.
Trump was barely done, turning to greet the crowd of lawmakers Tuesday night, when Pelosi, without a moment’s delay, turned the papers in her hand.
And she ripped.
And then she took some more pages.
And she ripped again.
Asked afterward in the halls of the Capitol why she did it, Pelosi responded: “It was the courteous thing to do.” She added: “It was the courteous thing to do considering the alternative.”
The White House responded with the following tweet:
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.

So much for her preaching
Shameful
She should get charged with vandalism
This ugly MACHASHEIFA, I wish her all the WORST !!!
We’re having a tantrum in kindergarten! Ripping up the paper for sure changes reality, doesn’t it???
Dems are all lowlife, they hate America. They are shameless.
Tehran Nancy classless hag.
She is the leader of the Democrat party. A little immature baby having a temper tantrum. She is a classless pampered millionaires.
She must have mistaken it for the constitution
Doc no she did that already by pushing the fake impeachment starting before he took office. This was more but it might also be the end of the Democratic Party
How else could she respond to all of the Presidents accomplishments? It is her disturbed way to cope with President Trump’s many accomplishments and triumphs……making believe they don’t exist.
Shameful. She should be IMPEACHED!!!
It takes two to make a fight. What was with him refusing to shake her hand? Seems a lot of childishness is going around.
She was right. That paper was full of lies, lies, lies by the most immature president in history. Have a new nickname for Pelosi, el president? Only third grader have nicknames for everyone.
this shows unlike real Republican Americans who respect the Constitution, Pelosi only cares for a show.
It was so full of “it”, they should have printed it on soft, perforated paper.
So Trump no longer holds a monopoly on taking the low road.
