Pelosi Reveals She Never Intended to Tear Up Trump's 2020 State of the Union Speech

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Sunday that she didn't intend to tear up President Donald Trump's 2020 State of the Union address during a moment when the speech went viral at the time. The action, which occurred in February 2018, was seen as a dramatic gesture by some as a response to what Pelosi called 'alternative facts'. However, Pelosi revealed that her intention behind ripping up the speech was not to make a statement about Trump's words but rather to preserve a piece of paper. The gesture has become an enduring symbol of her relationship with Trump and the 2018 State of the Union address.
