Nancy Pelosi rips up State of the Union speech after Donald Trump snubs handshake

Donald Trump appeared to snub Nancy Pelosi's request for a handshake during the start of his State of the Union address. At the speech's conclusion, Pelosi was seen tearing up her copy of the speech, later saying 'it was the courteous thing to do'

Now this is what I call a reality show. Rofl.

[fraudsarentfriends]

He probably didn’t even see that she reached out.He didn’t shake Pence hand either.

[CKMLMA]

It literally does look like a child throwing a tantrum that nobody around cares about.

[vanessamcgee]

I'm not saying the "snub" didn't happen but to me it looks like he was turned half way around when she put her hand out.

[marcaveli]

The most impressive thing is Mike Pence acting classy and pretending he didn't see that she was ripping up the speech

[wardiz]

Pence is looking at her out the corner of his eye and thinking, THE SALT MUST FLOW

[johngalt]

It doesn't even look like he noticed her extend her hand, she was just having a fit of immaturity

[jingowarhawk]

Im glad she did it. The country, and the world, needs to see how her decisions are blinded by rage.
Get rid of her

[FBI-obeo]

She realised she spent all that time for nothing when she could have been at home getting drunk on 7/11 vodka

[Cruelaid]

She can rip up impeachment on Wednesday

[ecnkrpj]

Isnt that contempt of the senate? Should have been charged

[RubyGaudy]

It's pitiful to watch her act like and angry child.

[cdrbb]

I.. eh.. Who are these petty people? America is weird.

[pt]

Embarrassing, doing this stuff for the cameras. It makes her look rattled and childish.

[esmemcgill]

She's raging. Thinking "How dare he". lol

[innothias]

He was already turning when she stuck her hand out lmao, and to add that she tore his speech up was a child play move.

[AP-wnnd]

He was almost turned around when she offered her hand. Not sure if he really saw it after pausing and playing a few times.

[stephenr]

I mailed her a copy of it, with a baby bib with an elephant on it. Never heard back.

[ThornsOfOurTime]

the way her lips moved during the ripping of that paper lol oh shes salty

[groy]

Odd behaviour are you sure she is fit for office.
