Nancy Pelosi is not done trolling Trump
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) was left hanging on Tuesday night when President Trump ignored her offer of a handshake, and now, she's calling him out.
At the start of Trump's State of the Union address, Pelosi held out her hand to the president, but he did not reciprocate. Pelosi shrugged it off, but after the speech, which included digs against Democrats and former President Barack Obama, she calmly ripped up her copy of the address, later telling reporters, "I tore it up. I was trying to find one page with truth on it. I couldn't."
