Romney and Santos’ Tense Exchange in House Chamber Before Biden’s SOTU Address

The State of the Union Address on Tuesday night was marked by a tense exchange between Republican Senator Mitt Romney and Democratic Congressman George Santos.

Prior to President Biden’s address, Romney was heard telling Santos “You don’t belong here” in the House chamber. The heated exchange was witnessed by many and captured in a video that quickly went viral on social media.

Santos had grabbed a seat in the aisle of the chamber, and some Republicans were not eager to shake his hand as he passed by.

President Biden’s address focused on unity and bipartisanship, but the exchange between Romney and Santos was a stark reminder of the deep divide that still exists between the two parties.
