Nancy Pelosi Baffles Conservatives By Rubbing Her Hands Together Awkwardly During Serious SOTU Speech Moment

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) baffled conservatives during a serious State of the Union address moment last night.

As Fox News noted, a smiling Pelosi stood up and rubbed her hands together awkwardly as Biden was talking about the soldiers stationed in Afghanistan and elsewhere “breathing in toxic smoke from burn pits.”

Parody account “Libs of Tik Tok” shared a video of Pelosi’s bizarre actions in a tweet and asked, “What the actual hell is Pelosi doing?”

Former NFL player Chris Manno responded, “This crazy old pelican looks like she’s rubbing imaginary defibrillator paddles together before shocking the corpse playing ‘President’ back to life.”

Strategist Greg Price asked a similar question while tweeting a longer clip as he said, “What the hell is this reaction from Nancy Pelosi to Biden talking about soldiers breathing in toxic smoke from burn pits.”

Former GOP Congressional candidate Jason Roberge suggested, “This was wildly bizarre and words can not describe how sad we should all be that 90% of San Fran people consistently vote for her.”

As the New York Post reported, Biden outlined four items in a “Unity Agenda for the Nation” that included support for veterans. 

“My administration is providing assistance with job training and housing, and now helping lower-income veterans get VA care debt-free,” Biden explained.

“Our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan faced many dangers. One was stationed at bases and breathing in toxic smoke from ‘burn pits,’” the president continued as some began to applause and added, “Many of you have been there.”
