Trump appeared to snub Pelosi’s attempt to shake his hand. Maybe he did not notice.

Did you catch the attendee who was escorted out of the theatre? That was the father of a victim who was murdered at Parkland School.

The finale where Pelosi dramatically tore up the SOU address was quite the spectacle.

I was wondering what that was about.

I love it when Nancy puts herself in the spotlight - she is one of the most disliked politicians in the country .
Been in DC for decades, in DNC leadership positions during various time periods, a reminder of how the elites look at normal average Americans. Largely responsible for a lot of problems in the country today. Used her position in government to enrich herself.

Go Nancy go

You cant seem to stop name calling - being Conservative does not mean racist. Also the Medal of Freedom is Civilian Medal - the General is Military, his reward was a promotion.

Nervous Nancy is the face of impotent rage and hate known as the Democrat party. R.I.P.

You Dems need to #WalkAway while you still have your sanity.

Like the Republicans did for Obama? Give me a break!

Good one!
Yay R Senators — now they need to “en masse” tear up the impeachment papers.

The incivility in the State of the Union was started by the Republicans when in 2009 Rep. Joe Wilson shouted "You lie!" at President Obama.

"Same to you but more of it!"

"I know you are but what am I?"

"He started it, no she started it, no he started it, no she started it!"

We deserve better representation than this.

I say that but maybe we have exactly what we deserve.

Likewise.

The tearing was much more childish - very inappropriate. You just want to forget it because of the shame it brought.

The father was yelling and has apologized for his behavior during the speech.

Unlike other people who were at LEAST as poorly behaved.
