Faux clap that went waaaay over his head.
The big guy, huge guy refuses to shake her hand on national TV. Shows what a little man he is.
But the tension didn't end there. Pelosi remained sitting during most of Trump's speech, and at the end of the address, she was captured on television ripping apart a print out of the speech and tossing it onto the desk.
Then.
Dayum I love this woman. She stands for us. I know some do not like her, yet she has balls of steal and stands for all America.

Walk for me.

(51,627 posts)since my health is failing more and more. I am surprised that it has held out as long as it has. I understand that we all have limitations. I can still call the GOP House and Senate and give them my two cents without getting too tired so that is what I will continue to do too.

Take care of you, Bigman. Seriously, take care of you.

(51,627 posts)Thanks for your sincerely kind words. At this point my dog and I are "hanging in there" the best we can. She is my best medicine but is almost 17 years old.

Justice. Sweet justice. On National TV she tore him a new one without saying a word.
Rip!

(86,775 posts)I have seen it rerun in many threads here and on The Daily Show and on MSNBC so I expect he will see if and I hope it frosts his buns.
There were a few points where he looked a little flustered but he pressed on like it was the hardest thing to do. His disciples have never been that active, jumping up to clap and cheer after every phrase! They were covering up the booing for one, but they were also covering up his inability to speak. Each clapfest gave him time to read the prompter and a few huffs of air. It was also to make him feel like his dictator buddies who demand adulation at all times. The cover-up crowd.
It was absolutely disgusting.
You nailed it. +1000. They were covering his ass. I watched most of it and the thunderous applause every minute threw me. Your take is spot on. Cover for an inept dotard on a shit load of drugs just to give this speach. I weep for America.
PS. The Democratic women in Congress all wore white. Never stood or clapped.
Thank you.

(86,775 posts)Rep. Rashida Talib was on camera and she walked out and said several Dems walked out. That's good to know. Rep. Tim Ryan also walked and then was interviewed. He said he had enough lies and he did rant a bit on air, it was a good rant.

Yet in some forums, there are tremendous numbers of zombie fools.

(1,096 posts)- NPR maybe - of a woman who was injured on her job and so is now unemployed and living on social security and disability benefits. She said she voted for trump and plans to do so again even though she is aware that he plans to try to cut those benefits. Whaaa? I really, really don't understand that logic. I cannot even imagine the thought processes of people like that. How on earth can people like that be made to see what a travesty his presidency is? And not because others may not like him, but because it actually comes down to self preservation for them.
