House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., apparently did not enjoy President Trump's State of the Union address, tearing her printed copy of the speech immediately as the president wrapped up his remarks Tuesday night.
When Fox News asked her afterwards why she did it, she responded: "Because it was the courteous thing to do considering the alternatives." She added: "I tore it up. I was trying to find one page with truth on it. I couldn't."
On the heels of an impeachment trial, which is expected to end in an acquittal in the Senate on Wednesday, tension was palpable between Pelosi and Trump. The president apparently "snubbed" the speaker when she tried to shake his hand as he handed printed copies of his address to her and to Vice President Mike Pence.
Pelosi occasionally shuffled the pages of the president's speech throughout his address. When he finished, she made her dramatic move.

So what? Seriously - whaddya expect from the enemy? He didn’t shake her hand, she tore up the speech. Big deal.
She was also talking to herself, fidgeting and clenching teeth...
Like on meth or something.
Hey Nan...Honey...check your stock portfolio and tell me how much better you could do running the country.
I wholeheartedly support whatever was said in post #2!!!
I’ve never seen a more rude person then pelousy. We are witnessing the suicide of the D party
So no truth in the people the President talked about and honored at the SOTU?
She is one hateful person. Can you imagine her as your mom if you ticked her off. Yikes.
This will play poorly in fly-over land, where etiquette and morals are still important.
Ditch needs to tear up Nazi’s Articles of Impeachment today...
She just gave the gift that will keep on giving. What wonderful clips that are perfect for re-election commercials.
Trump didn’t shake Pences hand either. It’s not protocol to shake their hands at this point so it would not be expected or anticipated. He was already turning towards the podium when she extended her claw so he most likely didn’t even see it anyway. There are other points to this as well like Pelosi not giving Trump the traditional introduction.
I was trying to find one page with truth on it.
You can’t find something when you don’t know what it looks like.
I heard Pelosi was down at the office supply store buying Scotch Tape.
Nancy is a sour old puss.....who should be put down.
She got,speed freak jive... can you hear me ripping...
Nanzi's new office in the House basement.........has a nice comfortable chair.
He needs to prepare an ad with the heroes and then her ripping their hearts out.
