Editor,
A little over 10 years ago, a movie by the name of “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” was released, starring Brad Pitt. This drama film portrays a man who ages in reverse. I was reminded of this film after seeing Nancy Pelosi at the State of the Union speech.
At the conclusion of Trump’s speech, Nancy rips up a printed State of the Union speech. Before the eyes of the country, Nancy becomes a child in the matter of seconds. Physically, Nancy still looks to be her advanced age but mentally, we can see she has regressed. Thanks to television and the internet, this video clip will live in infamy and will most likely tip those Democrats and independents who were on the fence to now vote for President Trump and other Republicans. Obama was the reason for President Trump’s first term. Pelosi will be the reason for President Trump’s second term. Thanks Nancy. Your legacy will include at least one accomplishment.
An adult who should know better becomes a petulant child at the U.S. Capitol. Not cool.

Nancy Pelosi, the gift that keeps giving. Good letter Lester
Only one child in DC, he sits in the WH and has 52 senators who apparently were raised by Benjamin Spock-like parents who let him get away with anything including bullying, lying, and now extortion. And all because, paraphrasing his counsel, "what's good for him is good for the country"? Not the country I know. Nancy's act was a silent protest that this future former Republican was happy to see.
