Lauren Boebert Gives Bonkers Speech To Very Bored Crowd - Farron Balanced

[TexasTowelie]

During a speech this past week, Republican Representative Lauren Boebert told a very bored crowd what she expects "real" patriots to do, but it wasn't clear what, exactly, the patriots were supposed to be fighting against, and her instructions just appeared to be general ideas for disrupting other people's lives. The crowd at one point forgot to clap for Boebert, possibly because they were so bored that they weren't even paying attention. Farron Cousins explains what happened.

This week Lauren Bobert decided to do a speech, I dunno, maybe a campaign rally, but it wasn't in Colorado, where she is a representative of a smaller district. She went to Texas for some reason in the hot Texas sun and spoke to a group of people and outlined the things that she believes that they must do in order to be proper patriots according to the book of Bobert. So here is Lauren Bobert speaking to this less than enthusiastic crowd about what she needs them to do. And of course she's willing to do it herself, but it's a very weird list. And here she is.

That is the kinda boldness that we need right now. I will do what's right. I don't care if it costs me an election, I don't care if the school principal gets mad at me or the county commissioners get upset at me, or if the flight attendant kicks me off the plane, I will do what's right and answer the call. Because without righteous men and women, without patriots taking a stand for this country, our children and our children's children will not benefit the blessings of America.

We were seconds away folks at the end of that clip from her pulling a Jeb Bush and being like, please clap. Because she stopped speaking, had that little smirk on her face and just dead silent, like crickets for a few moments before somebody was like, oh, I are we. Oh, oh yeah. Okay. And even the whole crowd wouldn't get into it. Like not everybody, cuz you can see the whole tiny crowd in that video. Not everybody was clapping. You had a few, and they didn't even realize it was time to clap, I'm assuming, because none of them were paying attention because they were bored to death. Also, as I mentioned, it's in Texas, outside Texas, much like where I live, right here in Florida, they don't exactly get spring, right? It's not nice gentle weather with a nice cool breeze and a sunny day. No, it is hot as hell.

I don't know who told Lauren Bobert to go do a rally at the end of April Outdoors in Texas. But I have to imagine that that has to be some kind of like liberal plant in her campaign that's like, Hey, why don't you go to an outdoor rally in Texas in the sunshine? Yeah, that'll, that'll get the crowd worked up. So the crowd didn't care what she had to say. Half of 'em looked like they were asleep. They didn't know it was time to clap. And that's good because nobody could even make sense of what the hell she's trying to say. Like, listen, you wanna be a patriot, you gotta get kicked off an airplane. You weren't giving people advice on how to like disrupt the system, right? And change things for the better. What you were giving people instructions to do was to be jack asses.

Like, this is what you gotta make a big stink at the schools and off the principles. You gotta get kicked off the airplanes yet. You know what? Please do that. I, I would love it if I never had to get on another airplane with a maga freak ever again. That would be amazing. Get yourselves kicked off and put on the no-fly list. Listen to Lord Bobert folks. She knows best, right? What is she even getting at? You know, there, there is a world of difference because you have plenty of people on the left that will go out and do speeches and they tell people you have to disrupt the systems because the systems are clearly not working for us, right? You have to protest, you have to form the unions, you have to demand better. You have to stage walkouts, you have to do these things that do cause disruptions in order to create a better country. Lauren Bogart, on the other hand, is just like, get your kicked off a plane, off a principle, uh, lose an election because yeah, like there's, there's, there's no stated goal about what you're doing. So if you want to take Lauren's, Bo Lauren Bobbitt's advice and just be a for the sake of being a, I can't stop you. But if you wanna enact real change in this country, you probably need to stop listening to people like Lauren Bobert.

1. Maybe the flight attendant could kick her off the plane midflight, over her district.

It's bad that thinking that makes me smile, isn't it.

2. How did we allow Adam Frisch to lose that Election to this Agitated Confused Simpleton?

3. Even the highly disenchanted & generally ignorant must realize this MAGA approach is going nowhere

Whether it's Trump or Boe or MTG, they spew this word salad and nothing changes. Why get your shorts in a knot, or possibly end up in jail for doing some fool thing, when whatever your big grievance is won't change one bit anyway? I know there are a host of whackadoodles out there, but as the crowds for these events are diminishing and growing quieter, it gives me hope that some level of rationality is dawning.

4. I love that the guy gets up and walks out.

5. She identifies the real enemies here. Flight attendants. School principals. County commissioners.

I'm surprised she didn't go after nurses, checkout clerks, and mail carriers.

More kick-down bullshit from our conservative citizens.
