House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., proved how divided the state of the union is by the "petty childish behavior" she exhibited after President Trump's address Tuesday night, former House speaker Newt Gingrich said Thursday.
Appearing on "Fox & Friends" with hosts Steve Doocy, Ainsley Earhardt, and Brian Kilmeade, Gingrich said he understands where the president is coming from when he snubs Pelosi.
"Speaker Pelosi has attacked him for four solid months. She has called him the most vile names possible," he said.
"You know, I introduced Bill Clinton four times when I was speaker of the House," Gingrich remarked, referring to his time in office. "One time it was in the middle of the scandal. Every time, because of the dignity of the House and the Constitution, I used the right phrase. She didn't."
Gingrich said that the idea Pelosi would tear up her copy of the State of the Union address was "childish" and "so beneath the dignity of the House."
"I agree with Jonathan Turley -- who is a Democrat -- who wrote this morning that she really should be kicked out of office for demeaning the entire nature of both the Constitution and the House of Representatives," he added.

Gringrich is 100% correct!!!
Childish behavior? Did she destroy an official government document or didn’t she? If she did, she should be arrested and charged with a crime. I mean, if demonicRATS care about high crimes and misdemeanors and whatnot..
Pelosi’s stunt was disgusting...
One of the penalties is removal from office.
She’ll be kicked out - by the voters.
Proof that she won’t run again. Her last hurrah!! YAY!!
Kick everyone out of office for petty behavior and you would depopulate Washington.
Did any of you listen to her press conference this morning? OMG!
Pelosi was just trashing Trump. She literally said Trump hasn’t even begun to match Obama’s growth in the stock market. She was going point by point to say how Trump’s SOTU were all lies, saying Obama did all these great things not Trump. I’m sure the press won’t challenge her at all. HOW can we stop them getting away with this!
She’s a psycho. She needs help and I’m not kidding.
Pelosi said Democrats want a cleaner government but that’s not something the Republicans have as a value.
She called Mitch the green reaper. Said Trump has no class. Like she knows what that is! On and on blatant lies. Not one person challenge her!
What’s worse is taht I saw the video of her pre-ripping maybe an inch of her little stacks so she wouldn’t struggle when she made her unforgivable display of hate.

Blah blah blah.
Pelosi doesn’t care. Probably doesn’t even remember doing it..
There’s newt living in the MSM world. Pretending the entire corruptocracy doesn’t need to be kicked out
I’ve got news for Newt
Nancy Pelosi should have been kicked out, long before she sat on the sofa with Newt for a nauseating photo op, when it became know to him and all the world that Nancy was misappropriating resources flying her and her family around on GI aircraft
Blechh on this lukewarm ‘statesman’
Yep
Others are forced to rezone for far far less
The terrific thing about Pelosi playing the petty-shreddy-Betty is that it was a turn-off to a lot of people who would otherwise have been more sympathetic to her than to Trump.
A lot of old dog democrats cringed at that one.
I think everyone knows how divisive politics is now.
But I think it also helps Trump when he is taking the high road and his opponents are being exposed as the children
That's an good point, let's start with her. :^)

She had this performance planned and it wasn’t because the President didn’t shake her hand.
