so she “started to stack my papers in a way that were tear-able.”

Well, they were already pretty terrible before she stacked them.

Pelosi understands how to use the optics in this age of Reality TV Politics where the media does not care to call out blatant lies and bullsh*ttery. Instead of the media using the day to spread his lies about the ACA and repeat the smarmy Tuskegee Airman and his great grandson propaganda, the the topic of discussion is that Pelosi shredded the speech because it was a pack of lies. And this highlights his whopper about supporting the ACA. Well done Madam Speaker!

Absolutely love it!

It was a PERFECT shredding of the packet of lies, and metaphorically of the entire fraudulent foundation of his so-called presidency.

It constantly amazes me how deftly Pelosi pushes Trump’s buttons. She seems to have figured out just how to get under his skin at exactly the right moment.

It is a joy to watch Trump being so uncomfortable when he’s trying to act so smug and dominant.

I asked a millennial co-worker if he was going to the Chief’s ticker-tape parade in KC today. He looked puzzled by the question, and confessed that he had no idea what a ticker-tape parade was. He had never heard of such a thing. Ticker-tape? WTF is that?

Actually, ripping the papers was just a metaphor for what really happened…

Sure, Trump raped nineteen women, cheated on all his wives, paid hush money to porn stars, bragged on tape about sexually assaulting women with impunity, peeped at naked teenage girls in beauty pageants, hosted parties for child-rapists, laundered post-Soviet mob money, committed treason to throw an election by holding a military ally hostage while it was being – literally – invaded by Russia, refused to rent apartments to POC, mocked the disabled, cages children, declares jihad on the free press, calls torch-wielding Nazis “very fine people”, and publicly lies a hundred times per minute – but let’s get outraged by the lady who tore paper, because oh my G-d that’s some serious wrongdoing right there!

Pelosi tore the speech up because it was the right thing to do - considering the alternative, which I assume was wiping her ass with them. I would have paid money to see that.
