Nancy Pelosi's Clap Is The Official Meme Of The 2019 State Of The Union Address

As a meme page we like to avoid politics whenever necessary, but some memes just need to be documented. Last night's #SOTU address had several meme-y moments, from bullied Joshua Trump's nap to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's refusal to clap. Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi did not share that sleepiness or reservation. Instead, her pointed clapping during one moment of President Trump's speech has been hailed as a clapback and has swiftly become a meme that hilariously eclipses politics. We're not sure if she was actively trying to throw shade at POTUS, but we are sure that this moment in meme history will not be forgotten.
