“The presidential election of November 5 was a mandate like has not been seen in many decades,” Trump said as he began his speech.

“You have no mandate,” Democratic representative Al Green countered.

Republicans quickly jumped to their feet with chants of “USA! USA!”

Green was then removed from the House chamber.

Republican members cheered at his removal, shouting “Get out!” and “Goodbye!” at the politician.

Green shouted, “You have no mandate to cut Medicaid!” at Trump before police escorted him from the chamber.

The circular black signs have bold white lettering including the statements “Protect Veterans,” “Save Medicaid,” “False” and “Musk Steals.”

Some Democrats held the signs higher as the president began his remarks.
