So Nancy Pelosi tears up Trump's speech on national TV. A display of petty impotent rage at the train wreck of impeachment process. But did Trump snub her by refusing to shake her hand? I don't know from his angle what he saw. But perhaps he declined to shake her hand because he remembered what happened to Pres. Palmer:

Not that this was much in doubt, but this signals to me the Democratic party is fully under the sway of the radical Democrats in their own party (e.g. Sanders, Warren, AOC). After all, would moderates or even traditional Democrats have cared for what Pelosi did (i.e. breaking protocol in how she introduced the president, tearing up the president's speech)? It seems to me the only ones who would applaud Pelosi tearing up Trump's speech would be these radical Democrats. Pelosi is playing to a small but vocal audience in her own party because she has to play to them since they're in the driver's seat in the Democratic party.
ReplyDeleteI think this is good news for Republicans and conservatives in general. It'll likely ensure a Trump re-election.
Also, not that this isn't already obvious, but it's clear Democrats like Pelosi have thrown the Queensberry rules out the window. They don't care about tradition, decorum, and so on. They'd rather burn the nation to the ground and start all over. Of course, that's how revolutionaries think too. The Democratic party has become a party of revolutionaries who want to bulldoze America and tear apart the Constitution. That's what's driving them.
DeleteI figure he suspected her of having a gom jabbar.
