A Democratic congresswoman was caught playing what appeared to be the popular smart phone game Candy Crush during President Trump’s State of the Union address on Tuesday.
US Rep. Brenda Lawrence (D- Mich) could be seen tapping away at digital jellybeans and gumdrops while Trump delivered his message of “unity” to the nation.
Some fellow members of Congress were seen reading Twitter and emails just beside her.
Lawrence and her fellow Congressional Black Caucus members wore traditional West African kente cloth to the speech as a show of solidarity with African nations that the president allegedly referred to as “sh–hole countries.”
Lawrence also wore a black outfit in solidarity with victims of sexual abuse.
The congresswoman’s office did not respond to a request for comment about the Candy Crush saga.
