Were they bitterly married in a previous life?!

They so want each other

I definitely think there is some sexual tension.

She kinda tosses it in this clip.

I heard Dana opine that he did that in frustration toward the extremes in her party - "I told you we did not need to impeach, now look at what has happened-.his approval ratings have never been higher and people are screaming 4 more years.

If this were a sitcom, what, Season 4 or 5 would have the inevitable hookup?

Actually, they have. And to be fair, his approval rating at this point in the Presidency is lower than every other President since Truman.

Did he even snub her or just not see it?

He rolled in with that boss man look on his face playing for the camera.

Have to say that the people acting all incensed about Pelosi's affront to civility and decorum are cracking me up. Seriously.

She also acted like a petulant child and was "playing for the camera" when she ripped up the speech in plain view for all to see.

She ... was "playing for the camera" when she ripped up the speech in plain view for all to see.

Of course she was. It was pretty funny and brilliant. Gives Dems something to enjoy and laugh at in the middle of a frustrating and annoying week so far. It was pretty masterful of her. Also, people are talking about that and the non-handshake today and not the ridiculously partisan SOTU address by Trump, so another positive in her eyes.

I am looking into whether she is subject to any red flag laws so we can have any firearms or sharp objects removed from her presence. May want to take away her vodka too.

Would have been an easy win for trump as he could have been the bigger man simply because he identifies as male and he's obese. Pelosi couldn't match that. Instead he chose to meet her on her level and be a bigger female dog. Bravo trump. You showed her.

When you say "he identifies as male," are you just being funny?

She shouldn’t have ripped up the speech, but Trump’s supporters have absolutely no standing to criticize her.

Why does it even matter? Asking seriously.

Does she really need to show him respect or be gracious with him? Does anybody? The office of the President just doesn't command the respect it once did. Maybe with somebody else in there it can reclaim some of that, but this has been a long time coming.

It must be frustrating to think that way and yet have no ability to control what Trump supporters say.

There are actually people (with blue check accounts) on twitter saying Pelosi violated federal records laws in destroying a federal record - noting that violations come with criminal penalty. Not only is that patently wrong (the official White House document of the speech is the federal record, not the copies distributed for members to follow along) but it's also hilarious because Trump has been sued numerous times by watchdog NGOs for clear examples of violations of federal records laws . . . most notably in conducting state meetings off the record.
