Lauren Boebert needed 4 tries to pass a GED. She's the perfect representation of the Republican party now.

Failed it three times, finally succeeded at the age of 34, just a few months before the election that put her in the House.

She also married a (somewhat rich) sex offender. But has now divorced him in favor of a guy who was groping her in the theater she was kicked out of. She was also giving him a handy.

A suggested edit:

But has now divorced him in favor of a Democrat-aligned LGBTQ-supporting, drag show-hosting bar owner who was groping her in the theater she was kicked out of. She was also giving him a handy.

This brings me joy and I want to make sure her support network is fully aware of it.

Like, I agree with you. But you know her supporters either don't care or will come up with some crazy way to justify it.

[-] billiam0202@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

Of course she should give him a handy in a theater! Women exist as sexual objects to serve men at all times! It would have been morally wrong for her to not have greased his pole!

Western slope Republicans, probably.

[-] akai@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

They'll probably say that a filthy Democrat was fondling her...

[-] dangblingus@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 1 year ago

I love that she was jerking him off in the theater, like she was some kind of raunchy teen from the 50s or something, and not, you know, a 36 year old grandmother.

[-] DeanFogg@lemm.ee 11 points 1 year ago

That should have been the headline. 36 y/o grandma Lauren Bobhead jacks boyfriend off in theater

[-] Cabrio@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Should have, but there's no teeth in Liberal media.

[-] Honytawk@lemmy.zip -1 points 1 year ago

You do know that is a good thing right?

We don't need the rhetoric of us-vs-them.

[-] Empricorn@feddit.nl -1 points 1 year ago

No one's saying we have to twist the truth, but if you think the "big tent" collective of Independents & Democrats are as adept at Messaging as Fox News, Glenn Beck, Joe Rogan, Facebook, Twitter/X, conservative radio, and conspiracy websites...

You are almost enough out-of-your mind to join them. Yes, we need to be tougher on them, but the "mainstream media" doesn't work for Democrats, they work for clicks and views...

[-] vind@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

They will use that as a way to claim that he is the one 'corrupting' her sexually...

[-] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

It is amusing to think that they would not drop her for so many other things (vaping in public, groping in public, being a complete Karen in public), but associating with a Democrat ? That's a bridge too far, buddy!

[-] torknorggren@lemm.ee 19 points 1 year ago

I thought the sex offender wasn't remotely rich until he mysteriously landed some sweetheart contract a couple months before Bobo was elected.

[-] jscummy@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

I think he might have been an oil worker of some sort which are usually pretty well paid. The real money comes from his $500k/yr oil "consulting" job he got after she was elected, and is definitely qualified for

[-] UltraMagnus0001@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

he also owns a LGBTQ bar or club which she claims to be against.

On May 31, Boebert claimed children at a North Carolina school were being taught colors from an "LGBT flag flashcards with a pregnant man," adding: "We went from Reading Rainbow to Randy Rainbow in a few decades, but don't dare say the Left is grooming our kids!"

On June 6 she said: "Take your children to CHURCH, not drag bars."

On August 18, Boebert tweeted a photograph showing an advert for a "Drag Queen Story Hour," hosted in a public library.

She added: "Sending a message to all the drag queens out there: stay away from the children in Colorado's Third District!"

Sorry, I'm practically staggered by all the Family Values these Republicans believe in and display...

[-] thisisawayoflife@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

Lol what a fucking idiot

[-] nao@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

I was reading another thread and wondering who she was
