On Tuesday, House Speaker Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) broke tradition when she refused to announce President Donald Trump properly before the State of the Union address. Protocol, as decades of past SOTU addresses show, is for the House Speaker to announce the president by noting that it is their “high privilege and distinct honor” to do so: “Members of Congress, I have the high privilege and distinct honor of presenting to you the President of the United States.” Instead, Pelosi merely announced President Trump:

Pelosi acting like a child, democrats sitting on their hands, some not attending... I guess they are too embarrassed and ashamed that they had nothing to do with all the good news President Trump had for our country. All they have is hatred and disrespect, which was on full display at the SOU.
Democrats are truly a bunch of losers. At this point, why would anyone want to vote for a democrat- unless they want to be losers too?

When she’s tore up the speech she thought it was The Constitution.
Still petty and nasty as always.

Last night's optics could not have been worse for the Dems (or better for the GOP). Pelosi acted like a petulant child, and the Dems -- in unison -- sat in stone-cold silence and refused to applaud record-low minority unemployment, 7 million people off of food stamps, energy independence, and at least half a dozen other items of good news that you'd think would cheer any American's heart. All on national TV for everyone to see. Remember last night when Trump and the GOP achieve a landslide victory in November.

I think President Trump should have corrected her by saying, “ I know you’ve had a very very bad year, probably THE worst years ever by any Speaker of the House in U.S History, but you are supposed to say...”
That would have been hysterical! Ha!

The dims aren’t used to losing at the smear game. They thought they always had that as an insurance policy. It was so easy to smear George w Bush! But this Trump! He fights back! At it works ! Three years of smears and still he thrives!
I sure hope Republicans- patriot Republicans- have learned the lesson and the skills. Trump makes it look easy but..... where do you learn such skills ?
Nasty p, chatterer of the house, is skilled in tearing things up like a curious raccoon going through the garbage. Impeach her! And nonad and bugeyed bugle boy.

Nancy knows that this is her final year in the spotlight. Sad. She is a pitiful old creature.
On another matter, I have a hunch that senema, the lesbian senator from Arizona, may vote to acquit dJt.
she was offering applause for his speech last night, often the only visible democrat doing so.
I guess we will see if my hunch is correct.

At least the Dems didn’t all turned their backs and mooned Trump and the national audience. I’ll give them credit for showing some class.

Throughout the speech, she flipped through the pages calling attention that she was “reading along.” Then she ripped it up in “dramatic protest.” She planned the whole thing, maybe for days. They are all so phony and deranged. Its sickening and disconcerting that they wield so much power. Power they abuse daily.

Don't act surprised that the most you can expect from a pig is a grunt. Her low class Baltimore crime family roots are showing.

Pelosi's antics just gave PRESIDENT Trump another 2 point bump in the polls. Pelosi throws a tantrum and it made a messy splatter all over the Democrats. She needs to grow up and act like a responsible honest adult. So do all the Democrats.

Her brain's memory buffer is about 2-bytes large. There was no teleprompter from which for her to read.

Trump always does this. He keeps supplying more rope so the Dems can hang themselves.
There are no words which I can use on this thread which would adequately express my sense of betrayal by the Democratic Party. Perhaps it should be called the Anti-American Party? Or the National Socialist Party? How about the Anti-Trump Party?
Lucianne followers, it is time for a contest.
How shall we name the Dems?
What shall we call the party of disrespectful blowhards? What possible metaphor can adequately express their disdain for MAGA?
Surely there is a poet out there in thread land who can do this!

I am more concerned with the way she ripped up the Constitution with her phony impeachment.

Not only did she violate protocol, by tearing up her copy (the official government copy) of the speech, she violated the law. She needs to be arrested.

She will be #25 and for a lot more than ripping up a speech. While she behaved vilely last night it is due to panic. She knows what's coming her way but she does not know when. When the dims have expended their last ammo the President will make his move. Be patient; it will come to all of them.

Everything and anything you wanted to know about Nancy Pelosi was on display last night. Wonder no more. Her behavior was a total disgrace.
memo to POTUS: cancel all government owned aircraft for Pelosi's personal use.

What a hateful, spiteful "thing". She is no lady, probably never has been. Besides needing to be seriously censured, she should be forced to reliquensh the chair as Speaker of the House. She just erased Howard Dean's infamous scream decades ago. I immediatelt thought he had blown his chance to run for the Presidency. Turned out, it was true. Decorum matters.

During the State of the Union address on Feb. 4th, 2020, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi willfully damaged the official House copy of the President's speech. This is a violation of 18 U.S. Code § 2071. which states in part:
"..Whoever, having the custody of any such record, proceeding, map, book, document, paper, or other thing, willfully and unlawfully conceals, removes, mutilates, obliterates, falsifies, or destroys the same, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both; and shall forfeit his office and be disqualified from holding any office under the United States."

A SNL skit that will never happen would be the President giving the SOTU while a distracting Baby Jane lookalike fidgets and mouths words to some unseen offstage companion. Except that old age, smeared lipstick and Tourette Syndrome are not laughing matters.
