Dan Crenshaw blasts Pelosi as ‘childish’ for ripping up Trump State of the Union speech

Rep. Dan Crenshaw ripped into Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi after she tore up President Trump’s speech following his State of the Union address.

“President Trump delivers an uplifting, unifying speech about how America is stronger, safer, and more prosperous than ever before,” the Texas Republican said Tuesday about Trump’s speech. “Pelosi rips it up in dramatic, childish fashion. This dichotomy tells you all you need to know about your choices in 2020.”


Pelosi, 79, tore up the State of the Union address Tuesday night, calling it a “dirty speech.” The moment came right after Trump had finished his delivery and before he left the House chamber.

“It was a courteous thing to do,” the speaker said afterward. Earlier, the president failed to shake Pelosi’s hand after she had extended it to him before his speech began.
