Gingrich: Censure Nancy Pelosi for Tearing Up Trump’s SOTU Speech
Breitbart ^ | 4-Feb-2020 | Joshua Caplan

Posted on 02/04/2020 10:06:36 PM PST by topher

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-GA) called on current House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) to be censured for ripping up a copy of President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address on Tuesday evening.

“As Speaker of the House for four State of the Unions by a President of the other party I am disgusted and insulted by the viciously partisan action of Nancy Pelosi tearing up the speech,” Gingrich wrote. “She isn’t clever or cute her childishness insults our American traditions -should be censured.”

Pelosi made the spectacle of tearing up the speech at the conclusion of the president’s remarks as he received applause from lawmakers. In addition to tearing up his speech, the speaker snubbed the president by introducing him into the House chamber as the “The President of the United States.” It is customary for the speaker to welcome the president with the language: “I have the high privilege and distinct honor of presenting to you the President of the United States.” Following the slight, the president appeared to snub an attempt by the speaker to shake his hand.

“Nasty and the Donald truely don’t like each other. I like that”.

Yeah, it’s like Winston Churchill and Hitler not liking each other” Hitler lost, Pelosi is losing and will end up losing big time. The Dems are like Demons..

Definitely an example of what they refer to as Trump Derangement Syndrome

She was triggered before Rush. When the president started listing the good things happening under him, she couldn’t take it.

What an evil woman. She wouldn’t even acknowledge Rush, a dying man. She and the Dems have no decency or shame and can’t stand that good things are happening in America.

Censured? Every conservative should thank her - the sight of the old biddy throwing a frustrated, impotent hissy-fit on national TV must have moderate Democrats slamming their heads into walls.

Tonight’s tantrum by nancy will follow her forever and removes any doubt about her pettiness, lack of control and total lack of class.

This will go down in history as a display of President Trump's class versus an ass.

President Trump will be president forever, while Nancy will lose her house in 2020's election and no longer will she be the house sphincter.

No, it was definitely on purpose.
President Trump handed her the copy of the SOTU and SLOWLY turned. It appeared he was looking her in the eye, hesitated a second, then turned.

Being as VP Pence is a member of the Executive branch I doubt if protocol calls for shaking his hand.

As Nasty Pelosi is the ranking member of the House and, by protocol, the host of the evening shaking her hand would definitely be called for.

She snubbed the President in the introduction so he snubbed her on the handshake.
Not to mention her despicable behavior on the impeachment sham.

Hope she shaves her head like the Irish zombie singer. Might as well her little temper tantrum is right on par with that.

I saw that. I wanted to reach through the screen and grab that vile of witch by the throat. That speech was THE greatest State of The Union Speech I ever heard.

You can't be too careful these days with coronavirus going around. I'm shaking fewer hands lately, too.

And Trump say’s ‘’we’’’ when he speaks of his accomplishments. That’s the mark of a mature and successful man. Obama was all about “I’’, me’’, ‘’mine’’. That’s the sign of an immature, childish , malignant narcissist.

Well, I guess it depends on the angle-I watched it twice on 2 different angles, and it seemed very quick to me, and not deliberate. However, I wouldn’t blame him if it was on purpose-after the way she’s gone after him every day for years. Pfft.

"Speaker Pelosi broke tradition BY NOT introducing the president of the United States (last paragraph of excerpt posted).
According to Newt Gringrich, President Trump 'snubbing' of the handshake was because Nancy Pelosi would not introduct President Trump.
"

Agreed!

The SOTU sequence:

1. Nancy broke tradition and didn't introduce Trump by tradition.
2. Trump doesn't shake Nancy's hand.
3. Nancy tears up, at least part of, a copy of Trumps SOTU speech.

Nancy Pelosi broke tradition when introducing Trump at the State of the Union, leaving out the words 'honor' and 'privilege'

This is all on San Fran values Nan.

“Hell, the whole SOTU was awesome.”

Good comments, FRiend. But would you have expected anything else from DJT?

We’ve certainly learned that his sense of timing is superb — as is his ability to keep his adversaries off balance.

W:hy censure a mentally ill political ideologue. Won’t impress her nor her supporters (i.e. much of the Democrat Party).

Just keep showing the photos of her ripping up an official document. That says it all.

Won’t happen. There’s not a single damn thing that a democrat will EVER get censured, indicted, or charged with for any G’DAMN thing. She could pee on it, and absolutely nothing would EVER happen.

We live in a parallel universe where WE would have to suffer for criminal behavior, but ANY democrat would not have to.

DISGUSTING!
