The White House slammed Nancy Pelosi after she ripped up President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address as she bragged to Democrats that ‘Trump shredded the truth so I shredded his speech.
’
Pelosi received a warm welcome from the Democratic Party when she met with them. They gave her standing ovation and a round of applause when she explained why she tore up the speech.
According to reports, Pelosi said: “He shredded the truth so I shredded his speech.”
She noted: “You are supposed to talk about the state of the union, not the state of your alleged mind.”
Lawmakers defended Pelosi’s decision to rip up the pages.
Congressman Hakeem Jeffries said to reporters: “As far as I’m concerned, a shredder wasn’t available, so she did what she needed to do.”
President Trump took to Twitter to give thanks to the ‘wonderful reviews’ he received for his State of the Union address.
“It was a great and triumphant evening for our Country,” he wrote. “Thank you for all of the nice remarks and wonderful reviews of my State of the Union Speech. It was my great honor to have done it!”
He was referring to the reactions of Republicans even though the night was filled with groans, eye rolls and ‘boos’ from hundreds of Democratic lawmakers.
After his tweet, he reshared positive remarks to the speech and other bashing Pelosi for what she did.
The White House wrote: “Speaker Pelosi just ripped up: One of our last surviving Tuskegee Airmen. The survival of a child born at 21 weeks. The mourning families of Rocky Jones and Kayla Mueller. A service memner’s reunion with his family.
“That’s her legacy.”
