Sky News host James Morrow says Speaker Nancy Pelosi is “like school on Sunday; no class,” for tearing up President Donald Trump’s “really rousing” State of the Union address.
Following President Trump’s “amazing performance” Ms Pelosi decided to cut through the rampant applause of the joint session of Congress by ripping up the speech. Mr Morrow told Sky News host Peta Credlin the Democrats are “so deranged by Trump and his presence” they now wind up “stepping on rakes every step of the way”. Fellow panelist Cory Bernardi said Ms Pelosi is now “electoral poison for the democrats”.
