At the end of the State of the Union address, Speaker Nancy Pelosi rips up the official copy of President Trumps speech.

Bonus Question: If you see no problem with it or think it was the right thing to do, would you support every speaker doing it in the future and you wouldn’t see any issue then? OR, if you didn’t appreciate the action do you think it would ever be appropriate in a different situation?

For those who don’t watch, typically the Vice President and the Speaker of the House sit behind the President while the State of the Union speech is given. It is fairly common for the opposite political party not to clap of be enthusiastic about the speech unless the issues are very bipartisan, but attendance by all is typical. At the end, the Speaker (Nancy Pelosi) ripped up the official signed copy of the speech; this activity is NOT a typical action.
