One nice perk with Nancy now House Speaker is

[Elwood P Dowd]

during the State of The Union speech we won't have to look at Lying Ryan jumping up and down clapping every time Trump tells one of his thousands of lies. Instead, Nancy will be there setting behind the Coward In Chief during his Lie-A-Thon. Now, she will have go home and burn her expensive clothing afterwards to remove the stench from setting behind Trump and next to Pence.

1. I'm hoping she wears her shades for Cheeto's SOTU.

[Elwood P Dowd]

[niyad]

3. ahhh, thank you for that cheering thought. no more repulsive lyin'ryan.

[Shanti Mama]

4. Will he even give a State of the Union?

I wouldn't be surprised if he found a reason not to.

[Elwood P Dowd]

5. It wouldn't be the first time he ignored the US Constitution.

Hell, he might just fire off a few tweets while setting on the toilet watching Fox News.

6. A speech isn't required by the Constitution.

He shall from time to time give to the Congress Information of the State of the Union, and recommend to their Consideration such Measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient;

Article II, Section 3, clause 1.

Jefferson sent written messages to Congress to be read by clerks.
