'I'm truly sorry': Lauren Boebert backtracks on vaping before Beetlejuice boot






“Whether it was the excitement of seeing a much-anticipated production or the natural anxiety of being in a new environment, I genuinely did not recall vaping that evening when I discussed the night's events with my campaign team while confirming my enthusiasm for the musical,” Boebert said in a statement. “It’s clear now that was not accurate.”

snip

“The past few days have been difficult and humbling, and I'm truly sorry for the unwanted attention my Sunday evening in Denver has brought to the community. While none of my actions or words as a private citizen that night were intended to be malicious or meant to cause harm, the reality is they did and I regret that,” Boebert continued, blaming her behavior on her “public and difficult divorce” and adding, “We know we will have to work to earn your trust back and it may not happen overnight, but we will do it.”

All of this comes as reports indicate that Boebert's advisers are begging her to dial back her "nonstop combativeness" as she only won re-election last year by 600 votes and faces a tough battle next year.

Everything she did that night was her screaming "Look at MEEEEEE!" at the top of her lungs.

That was NOT an apology. That was her trying to put the blame on her own actions onto others.

I get them confused. Next week, I will bring up the matter of the need for privacy as Americans go about their lives! I was just minding my own business, getting my boobs caressed, when suddenly, all these people appeared out of nowhere. My very private divorce is causing me to act out. I am a fan of the arts, so much so I was giving my own performance. I'm sorry.

They were both shameless and neither of them really care.

They were either drunk or coked out.

The anxiety excuse is such a lie.

You can take young children to a musical performance, they aren't anxious, they are excited!
And they don't act out as badly as this member of congress.

She put both her hands right on top of his crotch and appeared to rub. There are two videos.

I'm all for a good time, but you don't do this in front of a filled venue with people telling you to be quiet. Now, I could be wrong, but this seems to be more than a casual date.

What a lame excuse. Somebody told her to save her career. Now she'll have to go on podcasts and such to splain it all away. I wonder if her date will show up with her. I'd have lots of questions for her. And him.

Gawd, what is wrong with these people...

The woman behind Lauren's 'date' is the pregnant woman that asked her to stop vaping. The seat next to her is now empty. It was the woman's, I assume husband, that had been sitting there. Looks to me that he was one of the people that alerted security when the sex show started.

People paid good money to attend the show and Lauren ruined their evening.

I vape and I also work from home, and during work hours I'll take a pull and get a dry hit (meaning the tank is empty and the coil is burning as a result), then look down and realize I've been chain vaping without being aware of it. But that's at home.

I've only ever vaped once in a place I shouldn't, but I was immediately aware of it and was like, "Oh shit." I'd just walked into a mall and my mind was elsewhere and it was just a habitual action.

Apart from that one time, I've been aware that I'm in a space that doesn't allow vaping and acted accordingly. I'd certainly never take a rip while sitting in a crowded theater. She's just being herself, obnoxious and entitled.
