beating a dead Nancy

Sigh... it's the topic that won't go away, so here I go again. As some folks have noted, here on this blog and elsewhere, Nancy Pelosi's dramatic ripping-up of a copy of the president's State of the Union address may not have been all it was cracked up to be: as Tim Pool shows below (go to about 10:47 in the video), Pelosi apparently had pre-ripped pages, and at least some of those pages may have been pre-ripped before she even knew what the content of Trump's speech would be. As Pool incredulously observes, this means that Pelosi's contention that she shredded Trump's speech because it was full of lies was itself a lie. Does the old bat not understand that hi-def cameras are everywhere? Did she really think she had Ocean's Eleven-level sleight-of-hand skills and could somehow do her pre-ripping in perfect secrecy? It's hilarious to watch Pelosi's gesture backfire, not only because the gesture was inherently vain when she did it, but because it now turns out the whole thing was fucking staged.
