Lauren Boebert needed 4 tries to pass a GED. She's the perfect representation of the Republican party now.
Did she actually?!
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.
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.
They'll probably say that a filthy Democrat was fondling her...
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.
That should have been the headline. 36 y/o grandma Lauren Bobhead jacks boyfriend off in theater
They will use that as a way to claim that he is the one 'corrupting' her sexually...
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!
I thought the sex offender wasn't remotely rich until he mysteriously landed some sweetheart contract a couple months before Bobo was elected.
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!"
Lol what a fucking idiot
Hilarious. You could do better than Biden, America, but I respect this reaction more than the incessant screaming of the toddler you had before.
Biden was the concession. Few really wanted him. The rest just knew he was white and vanilla enough to alienate as few swing voters as possible.
Anything to get trump out of office.
And now we're gonna fuckin do it again.
Better than the alternative.
Desantis may actually be worse. He's probably got a few more IQ points.
The last thing y'all need is a clever fascist in the Whitehouse.
I don’t buy the he’s a “smart trump” argument. His presidential bid was an obvious mistake that could have never ended any other way. But he did it anyway out of ego and narcissism. He’s not a smart trump, he’s trump without the charisma or timing.
Desantis doesn't have the charisma to replace Trump.
This is one of the few upsides of cults of personality; almost by definition they are not replicable.
That's the problem. We never get anyone to vote for. We're just voting against Trump and Desantis.
I voted against Trump last election. This time I'm voting for Biden. He's done way more than most people ever expected of him, with a razor thin Senate majority too.
And now we have to do it again
FTFY
Do we have a real choice?
I don't think we do.
If the choice is between a precariously old octogenarian and a completely unhinged authoritarian octogenarian who doesn't believe in democracy, I guess I know which way I'll vote every time.
To be honest, neither Biden nor any other politician should receive praise or respect for behaving this way, for it is the bare minimum that's expected from them.
We're just used to the craziness of the other side. Anyone behaving like the Republicans during the GW Bush era or earlier would have been ostracized from the political landscape.
So, don't feel respect for the expected decency of a politician. Feel rage for the indecent one, and show it with your votes!
Clearly Bidens son Hunter has issues and has done some clearly shady, if not outright illegal things, but this does not immediately make Biden complicit in his son's actions. Anyone who can read or has eyes will realize this all theater and will go nowhere just like the Clinton investigations.
I think the entire point is to smokescreen and deligitimize Trump's legal situation by trying to show people "look, we're doing the same thing they are doing to us!" Doesn't matter if it's completely different, or if it even goes anywhere legally. A lot of people will either not take the time to follow both cases or they'll be disenfranchised enough to tune out altogether, which is exactly what they're hoping for.
Look what they did to Hillary. They created so much smoke about Benghazi people still think there was a fire.
Truly the fall of civilization is when a critical mass of people don't know how to think critically and believe only what the angry people tell them.
...which managed to peel just enough voters off to make donnie's bid for office in 2016 a possibility that actually happened.
I do love his approach but it would also be neat to see him talk the same shit trump did and blame the republikkkans for a witch hunt. Which is exactly what they are doing. I also really wish he would have the trump children investigated as thoroughly as his son and Hillary have been.
I feel that would validate the republican clown show too much.
Yep. They go out of their way to make words lose meaning. Notice after Jan 6 they've been labeling anything dems do as an "insurrection." It's so their base sees anything horrendous that Republicans do as tit for tat, and the dumbass enlightened centrists can say "bOtH sIdEs" as they do.
Saying "OK go for it you got nothing" is much better optically.
Yes but also every accusation is a confession with them, they’re screaming about a laptop while handing out security clearances to their kids and quietly funneling Saudi money all over. Let’s look at that more publicly
I've been saying that since W was in office. Dems failure to call out the republicans shenanigans is endlessly frustrating.
I can only hope, by the time I'm 80, that I give as many negative fucks as Biden.
Impeachment is an empty threat at this point. He might not even show up if it goes to trial.
Special good luck to those Republican Reps who come from districts Biden won. You are those that will get attention.
I'm glad he responded to this. But I wish he would've hit harder. Shame doesn't work with the current GOP.
If the Republicans held Trump to the same standards as they're trying to hold Biden to, Donald would have been ousted from office and not cleared of two attempted impeachments.
Because on a scale of 1 to the Trump dynasty, Hunter's wrongdoing is about a 3.
