Speaker Pelosi fires back at President Trump, says she prays 'very hard' for him

"He's impeached forever. You're never getting rid of that scar," she said.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi defended her decision to tear up President Donald Trump's State of the Union address saying on Thursday that she did so to send a message to the American people that the speech was nothing more than "a manifesto of mistruths," with the president "using the Congress of the United States as a backdrop for a reality show."

"I saw the compilation of falsehoods," Pelosi told reporters at a press conference, adding, "I started to think, there has to be something that clearly indicates that this is not the truth. And he shredded the truth in his speech, shredded the Constitution in his conduct, so I shredded the 'state of his mind' address."

Pelosi added that her move had nothing to do with the president first refusing to shake her hand on Tuesday night when he took to the dais.

The speaker said she felt "very liberated" by her unprecedented act of defiance, tearing up the president's speech, though it has engendered bipartisan criticism.

"I have extended every possible courtesy. I've shown every level of respect," she said. "I tell my members all the time -- there's no such thing as eternal animosity. There are eternal friendships, but you never know ... everybody is a possible ally."

“... “I saw the compilation of falsehoods,” Pelosi told reporters...”

Nobody asks her to name one? Of course what are falsehoods to democrats are in reality truths.

I really don’t think the pro-abort nominal Catholic is praying to the Almighty, if you get my drift.

That much raw hatred eventually turns inward like a suicide’s knife.

“If I were a rank and file Dem I would be very, very unhappy with my leadership right now.”

Just think of all of democratdom as one giant Iowa caucus and you’ve got it.

“You ripped up a speech written by the HOLY SPIRIT wench.”

She already has. It’s the speech by Jesus that begins, “Whosoever causes harm to one of these little ones....”

It’s a mistake to speculate on what or who a person prays for.

It’s probably also a mistake to wonder who’s “saved” but still sometimes you can’t help but wonder.

Did anyone else catch this at the Prayer Breakfast? She said “Holy Ghost”.

I am curious to know when was the last time PeLOSER actually went to Mass. I go every week and cannot remember the last time we said “HOLY GHOST”. Perhaps it is a regional thing to say “ In the name of the Father, the Son and the HOLY SPIRIT” ?? California Freepers, help me out. Do you say Holy Ghost or Holy Spirit at Mass?

I don’t believe she goes to church. as she claims.

OK so I actually went to the linked article and read it, hoping to see that the “reporter” asked Pelosi to detail what the “mistruths” were, and did not see that.

But there is a thread of over 400 comments there, and (only read a handful), they seem to be only anti-Trump.

I guess it is possible that abc would skew the comments by removing any in support of our POTUS....
