White House social media director Dan Scavino tweeted: “Nancy Pelosi destroyed a historical record tonight at #SOTU. The speech she ripped up was a one-of-a-kind record, signed by POTUS and full of stories of Bravery, Heroism and Patriotism. It belonged to the AMERICAN PEOPLE, not to her. What a disgusting display of raw partisanship!”

New York Post editor Sohrab Ahmari tweeted: “Pelosi’s tearing up the speech is another instance of Democrats playing mainly to a Twitter/blue-check bubble. Teen Vogue editors (or whatever) might go, ‘Yasss, Queen.’ To people watching in, say, Michigan, it looks quite different.”

She disgraced herself, the House, & her party. And she probably hates baseball, apple pie, and country music!”
