A video shared by President Trump showing House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) tearing apart the State of the Union address has amassed over 18 million views on social media despite her allies’ efforts to convince platforms to remove it. The video, posted by the president last week, shows Pelosi tearing up the State of the Union address and highlights memorable moments of the speech, such as Trump honoring 100-year-old Tuskegee Airman Gen. Charles McGee. It has now surpassed 11 million views on Twitter, 3.1 million views on Facebook, and 4.1 million views on Instagram: pic.twitter.com/QhTWvcY4Ke — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 6, 2020 It would be soooooo terrible if this video hits 10,000,000 views, as Nancy doesn’t want Americans to see how disgraceful she really is! pic.twitter.com/OWfTEiadpr — Dan Scavino Jr.🇺🇸 (@Scavino45) February 10, 2020 The video, titled “Powerful American Stories Ripped To Shreds By Nancy Pelosi,” has drawn criticism from Democrats, who claim it is misleading: Hey @Twitter, this video is clearly edited in a way that’s intended to mislead viewers. You should take it down. https://t.co/agXJlvRirf — David Cicilline (@davidcicilline) February 7, 2020 This video is doctored. It has been up, and pinned to the President's page, for nearly a day. Trump posted it to deceive Americans about @SpeakerPelosi's actions and record. If I posted a doctored video it would be a clear violation House Rules.@Twitter should take this down. https://t.co/zTc2OHntQ5 — Rep. Don Beyer (@RepDonBeyer) February 7, 2020 “Researchers say the Pelosi video is an example of a ‘cheapfake’ video, one that has been altered but not with sophisticated AI like in a deepfake,” the Associated Press reported. Pelosi’s deputy chief of staff Drew Hammill asserted that the video was “deliberately designed to mislead and lie to the American people” and blasted social media platforms for failing to remove it. “The American people know that the President has no qualms about lying to them — but it is a shame to see Twitter and Facebook, sources of news for millions, do the same,” Hammill wrote, adding that the refusal to remove the video “is another reminder that they care more about their shareholders’ interests than the public’s interests”: The latest fake video of Speaker Pelosi is deliberately designed to mislead and lie to the American people, and every day that these platforms refuse to take it down is another reminder that they care more about their shareholders’ interests than the public’s interests. — Drew Hammill (@Drew_Hammill) February 7, 2020 “Sorry, are you suggesting the President didn’t make those remarks and the Speaker didn’t rip the speech?” Facebook spokesman Andy Stone asked Hammill on Twitter, reiterating that “the things featured in this video actually happened” and therefore did not violate the platform’s policy: Sorry, are you suggesting the President didn't make those remarks and the Speaker didn't rip the speech? — Andy Stone (@andymstone) February 7, 2020 The reason I was making the point about the fact that the things featured in this video actually happened is because that's a key element of our policy on content like this. https://t.co/CAtmBPczlG — Andy Stone (@andymstone) February 7, 2020 Hammill replied, “what planet are you living on? this is deceptively altered” and again ordered the platform to “take it down”: what planet are you living on? this is deceptively altered. take it down. — Drew Hammill (@Drew_Hammill) February 7, 2020 A Facebook spokesperson also told Fox Business that the platform only removes media that have been “edited or synthesized – beyond adjustments for clarity or quality – in ways that aren’t apparent to an average person and would likely mislead someone into thinking that a subject of the video said words that they did not actually say.” Twitter also did not remove the video, but a spokesman for the social media giant said that the company will begin providing warning labels reading “manipulated media” on “synthetic and manipulated media” beginning March 5. Defendants of the video, however, say it highlights the powerful stories Pelosi ultimately tore to shreds. “If Nancy Pelosi fears images of her ripping up the speech, perhaps she shouldn’t have ripped up the speech,” Trump campaign spokesman Tim Murtaugh said over the weekend. Proponents of the video have repeatedly defended it on social media, pointing to the fact that Pelosi, did, in fact, tear up a speech that honored American patriotism and heroes. “Democrats are demanding Twitter take this video down. They don’t want Speaker Pelosi held accountable for publicly ripping up the President’s address, and the stories of Americans, for cheap political points,” Rep. Mark Meadows (R-NC) wrote: Democrats are demanding Twitter take this video down They don’t want Speaker Pelosi held accountable for publicly ripping up the President’s address, and the stories of Americans, for cheap political points Please RT pic.twitter.com/XdhZlDjhjo — Mark Meadows (@RepMarkMeadows) February 9, 2020 “Nancy Pelosi wants this video taken down.

Paul Gosar, DDS (@RepGosar) February 8, 2020 “Nancy Pelosi and Democrats want this @TPUSA video scrubbed off the internet,” Turning Point USA’s Charlie Kirk said. “If she didn’t want people to see her rip up Trump’s speech maybe she shouldn’t have done it”: Nancy Pelosi and Democrats want this @TPUSA video scrubbed off the internet If she didn’t want people to see her rip up Trump’s speech maybe she shouldn’t have done it Pelosi is trying to shut this down It would be a shame if it went even more viral RT!pic.twitter.com/YcEI2xO7r6 — Charlie Kirk (@charliekirk11) February 9, 2020 “The Democrats only support free speech they approve,” Marc Lotter, Director of Strategic Communications for Trump’s reelection campaign, said. “If Nancy Pelosi doesn’t like the video of her ripping up @realDonaldTrump’s State of the Union, she should have thought about that before she did it,” he added: The Democrats only support free speech they approve. If Nancy Pelosi doesn't like the video of her ripping up @realDonaldTrump's State of the Union, she should have thought about that before she did it. pic.twitter.com/ojZO7UnmAB — Marc Lotter – Text TRUMP to 88022 (@marc_lotter) February 10, 2020 Pelosi engaged in damage control after her behavior at the State of the Union went viral, tweeting a note about her gratitude for Tuskegee Airmen: The Tuskegee Airmen bravely fought enemies abroad & racism at home. Our nation is forever grateful for their heroism, fighting for the values of America: equality, justice & opportunity. #BlackHistoryMonth https://t.co/PofLDGiF2i pic.twitter.com/GO9ne7EMsy — Nancy Pelosi (@SpeakerPelosi) February 6, 2020 The video: https://www.instagram.com/p/B8NMAjDhDTj/

It's going to be Trump versus Bloomberg, and that is going to be a very hard election. Two New Yorkers with unlimited funds. Gonna be tough.
I don't think so. Trump is effective and likeable (at least by me) and Bloomboig is an asshole.
Liberals are like Slinkys. They're good for nothing, but somehow they bring a smile to your face as you shove them down the stairs.
Tend to agree...Bloomberg has the charisma of a rock...MUD
"Devolve Power Outta the Federal Leviathan and Back to the States, He also has a net worth of 61.5 billion dollars - he will just try to buy the presidency. He's already running a crap ton of ads here already.
Government is in the last resort the employment of armed men, of policemen, gendarmes, soldiers, prison guards, and hangmen. His costly ads are absolutely ridiculous. Showing him cuddling up to Obama is a mistake. He hasn't the backbone and the character to be president. Our current president, however, has much backbone and stamina and he truly is a character that will become as famous in history as anyone can.
Liberals are like Slinkys. They're good for nothing, but somehow they bring a smile to your face as you shove them down the stairs.
I'm not saying he won't be the RATnominee, I just don't think he sells well. How many votes did it take Trump to win in 2016? Divide that number into $61.5 Billion to see how much MiniMike needs to bribe each voter to vote for his Royal Annoyingness...MUD
"Devolve Power Outta the Federal Leviathan and Back to the States, The costly ads? Yeah...I keep my remote handy to flip from all MiniMike commercials...lol. I have yet to see one in its entirety...MUD
"Devolve Power Outta the Federal Leviathan and Back to the States, I don't think so. Bloomy might be wealthy, but he is unlikable. His fascist reign is well known. Trump will mow him down. He has lots of baggage Trump can use.
Famous, yes, but a second Trump term (with an accompanying GOP-controlled House and Senate) could be historically consequential. A genuine start to process of draining the infamous DeeCeeSwamp and the exposure of the DeepStaters will be just two of the potential benefits a second Trump term could yield...MUD
"Devolve Power Outta the Federal Leviathan and Back to the States, yes indeedy!
Liberals are like Slinkys. They're good for nothing, but somehow they bring a smile to your face as you shove them down the stairs.
Bloomberg walked out onto that stage and was hit by Warren and the others...and was a deer in the headlights. He was unprepared for what hit him. Warren put her family heirloom tomahawk through his skull.

The essential feature of government is the enforcement of its decrees by beating, killing, and imprisoning.
Those who are asking for more government interference are asking ultimately for more compulsion and less freedom.
