Nancy Pelosi and the Hard-Left Should All Resign

Most Americans have already heard about or seen the actions of Democrat Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi when she ripped up President Trump's State of the Union speech.

The President had just ended his speech on a high note, extolling a vision of America as a free country. He was still in the camera's frame when Pelosi ripped up his speech in the most ostentatious way possible. In fact, video has shown that she pre-ripped it while he was talking. It was premeditated.

I was flabbergasted and shocked, as many undoubtedly were.

Pelosi's speech ripping was especially shocking because President Trump had ended his speech with such uplifting words; words that one would think any patriotic American could resonate with. Thus, her actions were even more jarring. The graphic above demonstrates the difference. Click on the image to see a larger view.

Her actions brought immediate criticism, including calls for her resignation. Writing in The Hill, in the article "Nancy Pelosi should resign," Jonathan Turley stated:

Pelosi has demolished decades of tradition with this poorly considered moment. Of course, many will celebrate her conduct and be thrilled by the insult to Trump. However, even those of us who disagree with his policies should consider what Pelosi destroyed in her moment of rage. She shredded the pretense of governing with civility and dignity in the House. Notably, she did not wait to rip up her copy of the speech until after she left the House floor. Pelosi wanted to do it at the end of the speech, in front of the camera, with the president still in the chamber.

That act was more important to Pelosi than preserving the tradition of her office. In doing so, she forfeited the right to occupy that office. If Pelosi cannot maintain the dignity and neutrality of her office at the State of the Union, she should resign as the speaker of the House of Representatives.

Nancy Pelosi and her hard-left Democrat colleagues have seriously harmed America with their attempts to deconstruct the principles upon which America was founded. Hollywood, academia, hard-left Democrats, and the "mainstream" media have created an unholy alliance, and today millions of Americans have been miseducated and misinformed about the real story of America: the country that has articulated and demonstrated the timeless values of freedom.

It's time for Nancy Pelosi and the radical members of the hard-left to all resign. It's time for the leftist nightmare to be debunked.
