As we told you Tuesday night at the end of President Trump’s State of the Union speech, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi personally shredded a copy of the president’s address:
WOW: Nancy Pelosi angrily ripping up copy of Trump’s SOTU speech is best evidence yet the ‘Democrats are losing’ https://t.co/vuH66JX90m

Over the course of the entire speech, Democrats basically got owned, and Pelosi’s response only confirmed that.
Pelosi explained her actions this way:
PELOSI on why she ripped up speech “It was a courteous thing to do.” She added it was a “dirty speech.” #SOTU

“The alternatives”? And what might those have been?

That’s certainly how it came across.
DIRTY (adj) — celebrating American heroes, creating more educational opportunities for all Americans, keeping our country and communities safe, and making progress together as one great nation. https://t.co/UcWD6SxvTI

The Democrat response (or lack thereof at some points) was unreal, even for the Democrats.
UPDATE:
This is rich… here’s how Pelosi’s spinning the evening:
Democrats will never stop extending the hand of friendship to get the job done #ForThePeople. We will work to find common ground where we can, but will stand our ground where we cannot. #SOTU pic.twitter.com/ELJqR9q4xD
