Lauren Boebert Ignores Her Own Son's Legal Problems To Show Up At Trump Trial

Republican Representative Lauren Boebert showed up in the GOP clown car to support Donald Trump in court on Thursday, alongside Matt Gaetz. These pop-ins are not helping Trump with the jury at all, but the real question is why Boebert is showing up to support Trump when she's ignoring her own child's very serious legal problems. Her son, Tyler, has appeared before a judge multiple times to whine about not being able to afford a lawyer, but Boebert apparently has the cash to fly around and support Trump for no real reason. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this.

Well, folks, the clown car, sure as hell pulled up in front of Donald Trump's courthouse on Thursday morning, and it unleashed such buffoons as Anna Paulina, uh, Luna from Florida, Matt Gaetz, also from Florida, and of course, Republican representative Lauren Bobert from Colorado. Now, Bobert, according to reports, actually had the best seat in the house. She was seated, you know, aisle row right behind Donald Trump. It's reported that she was kind of given the stink eye to some of the witnesses in the courtroom. But what really struck me about this is not just the fact that I think you had nine Republican lawmakers show up on Thursday in that very overpacked clown car, but it's this Lauren Bobert from Colorado took time out of her day time out of her schedule, and spent the money to go to New York City to support Donald Trump during his trial.

And my question is, why are you not supporting your own son in his criminal proceedings? Let's not forget that Lauren's oldest son Tyler, was of course recently apprehended, arrested, and indicted on multiple felony accounts in the state of Colorado for, as the report suggest, basically leading a crime ring and, uh, making a, a tape with a young girl. But that not was not necessarily in the indictment, it was just something that investigators also found. Uh, so Bobert, the younger Bobert has been in court multiple times now, most recently last week, where he told the judge, Hey, judge, I simply can't afford a lawyer. Ah, I don't know what to do. Even though his parents have net worths in the millions. Yes, his parents of course are divorced, but both of their individual net worths, according to report, uh, reports are well over 5 million a piece, but he claims he can't afford a lawyer, therefore, we have to delay all this.

So, again, if what Tyler Bobert is telling the judge is true, because if it's not, you know, then that's a contempt charge there. But if Tyler is telling the truth to the judge that, Hey, I, I'm basically, I'm not getting any support. I have no money to pay for a lawyer, then my question is, why the hell is Lauren Bobert going to New York to support Donald Trump instead of going back to Colorado to support her own frigging child? Right? Nobody wants their kid to be indicted. Nobody wants their kid to be arrested. Nobody wants their kid to have to go to court. And even if we don't like what the kid may have done or may not have done, again, we haven't had a trial. You still show up to support the kid, but Lauren Bert's not even willing to do that, right? This whole Christian values, you know, family type woman is spending her time in New York to just show up

Instead of spending time to help her own child even find a lawyer. That just blows my mind. That is crazy to me. I mean, I could not imagine just leaving your child to rot so you can go sit behind your cult leader in a courtroom in Manhattan. That to me, is just absolutely mind blowing. But that's what Lauren Bobert chose to do this week.
