As President Trump concluded his State of the Union address and the cameras began to shift to the congressional audience, a shot of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi ripping up the physical copy of Trump’s speech drew attention.

This moment, though brief, showed how tensions between the president and the Democratic Party are at an all-time high. Trump spent the early minutes of his address praising his own administration’s accomplishments, both economic and cultural, and sharply contrasting them with the failures of the Obama administration. He didn’t mention impeachment, acting almost as if it didn't exist — or like it just didn't matter.

Pelosi would have had a hard time with her base had she failed to contradict Trump somehow. And so, in order to show how she rejected what he had said, she tore up the speech. She knew she'd been beat. Impeachment failed. The Democratic Party is eating itself over Iowa’s caucus divisions. Trump’s approval is at an all-time high.

Pelosi can shred Trump’s speech, but she can’t change the results. The results are what voters will remember heading into November.
