Nancy Pelosi explains what was WRONG with President Trump’s SOTU

U.S. Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., who as House speaker over the years spent tens of thousands of tax dollars on special treats for herself while traveling to and from Washington on taxpayer-funded jets and who assigned a partisan committee to try to pin the blame for J6 on President Donald Trump, has come through for Americans again.

This time she’s defined just exactly what was wrong with Trump’s State of the Union.

Too much “patriotism.”

“You know, it‘s one thing to acknowledge patriotism and people getting well and everything when you have absolutely nothing to do with their courage or the rest, but you spend an hour and a half doing it?” she insisted.

Another said, “Nancy, fixed it for you: ‘You know, it’s one thing to acknowledge patriotism … but to spend 40 years faking it is a bit much.”

And, “@TheDemocrats and @SpeakerPelosi hate this country, that’s why they hate Patriotism.”

And sarcasm surfaced, “He actually wanted us to stand up for those icky Americans instead of the illegal aliens we represent! Can you believe it?”

Unleashed at Twitchy was a commentary that said, “We thought that President Trump zinging Nancy Pelosi during his call to ban insider trading by members of Congress might be the former House Speaker’s least favorite part of the State of the Union speech, but she appears to have a larger problem with the evening.

“Yes, Nancy, you and the Democrats made it painfully obvious how you feel about patriotism and ‘America first’ during the speech.”
