At the conclusion of President Trump’s State of the Union address, House Speaker tore up a copy of the speech, exposing herself as a petulant child. The optics were horrible for her and the democrats but things get worse because this pathetic display was planned. Pelosi claimed that she was so outraged by Trump’s speech that she spontaneously ripped it up but like everything else with her, Nasty Nancy is lying. She had this planned all along.
Who can forget this from Tuesday’s SOTU?

Here’s CNN defending Pelosi’s disrespectful and immature behavior:
President Donald Trump and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi clashed in two stunning moments at Tuesday night’s State of the Union address, when Trump appeared to ignore Pelosi’s attempt at a handshake and she later ripped up her copy of his speech after he concluded.
It’s unclear whether Trump avoided Pelosi’s handshake on purpose, and a source close to the House speaker told CNN’s Dana Bash the decision to tear up the speech wasn’t planned but was sparked by her anger at the address.
So this was a spontaneous reaction? What explains this? Here’s some video of Pelosi earlier in the SOTU address doing a dry run at ripping up the speech:

She is literally practicing her “spontaneous” moment, which by definition makes it a planned action.
Plus, as The Hill reports, Pelosi herself admitted to planning this misadventure:
“He shredded the truth so I shredded his speech,” Pelosi told House Democrats during a closed-door caucus meeting, according to sources in the room. Like she did the night before, she called his 90-minute address “a manifesto of mistruths.”
Wednesday’s private remarks marked the first time Pelosi had addressed the Tuesday night incident to House Democrats. Pelosi said she had not planned to tear up Trump’s speech, but she felt “liberated” when she did so. Her actions came after Trump, as he entered the chamber and ascended the dais, appeared to snub Pelosi by ignoring her extended hand.
“I didn’t go in there to tear up the speech, and I didn’t even care that he didn’t shake my hand. In fact, who cares?” Pelosi told her caucus, according to sources in the room. “But I’m a speed reader, so … I went like this through the speech. So I knew that it was a pack of lies. I knew it was a pack of lies, but I thought, ‘Well, let’s see how it goes.’
“About a quarter through it I thought, ‘You know – he’s selling a bill of goods like a snake oil salesman. We cannot let this stand,’” she said. “So, somewhere along the way realizing what was coming, I started to stack my papers in a way that were tear-able.”
So it was planned spontaneity? These democratic socialists liberal thinkers sure are good at oxymorons, aren’t they?
My guess is that Pelosi put together a focus group before the SOTU to find a way to counter the overwhelmingly good economic news President Trump was going to deliver and this is what they came up with. The same people who told her to impeach Trump for “bribery” advised her to tear up the speech. It might be time to get a new focus group because these clowns are steering the democrats in the complete wrong direction.
What Pelosi should have done is broke the speaker’s gavel across her knee because her failed impeachment and juvenile behavior has all but guaranteed that she’s about to loose her majority in the House and her speakership.
