In the United States, governmental censure is done when a body's members wish to publicly reprimand the President of the United States, a member of Congress, a judge or a cabinet member. It is a formal statement of disapproval. Nancy Pelosi certainly qualifies to be formally censured for tearing up her copy of the SOTU address on national television, especially in a formal, joint session of Congress. /—— I thought the spoiled brat scene she made was pretty tacky myself It certainly makes it clear these are not the adults in the room. The Democrat majority will never vote for censure tho. Saw that Trump refused to shake Pelosi's hand before he started speaking. Luddite didn't mention that. Actually, I did. He didn't shake VP Pence's hand either. But you wouldn't know that because you didn't watch it, right? There's a question as to whether Trump knew of Pelosi's gesture to shake hands. Some say he didn't see it because he delivered her copy of his speech and immediately turned away. I suspect he probably *did* know but chose to ignore it. Pelosi made the first snub of the evening when she chose to ignore the traditional, respectful introduction of a POTUS to a joint session of Congress and instead, just introduced him as "the President". Trump isn't a meek, scared politician. He was out for blood but did so in a well orchestrated, creative way. I also don't believe Trump himself designs the execution of his "attacks". I believe his staff and speechwriters have a lot to do with it. Sidebar: I was thinking about when the Democrat party last had leaders who were politically influential without resorting to years of personal attacks of a sitting POTUS. With the rules the Democrats use today, even FDR would be subject to impeachment for hiding his polio affliction and conducting a cover-up of it from the population. |
