Aside from the hypocrisy I don’t really care at all. So she had sex with three adults? Good for her. I actually think it’s kinda sad that she feels she needs to keep it a secret that she likes women. Other than that, she’s a terrible, terrible person, so I won’t be crying any tears for her.
But you know, there’s an actual sexual predator in your Whitehouse, his whole inner circle is filled with Nazis and pedo’s. When compared to all that, Lauren Boebert should get an award for being so… consensual about sex. I hate her hypocrisy, and she shouldn’t be using government money to book hotel rooms for her sexual escapades, but shaming women for liking sex? Miss me with that shit.
It’s a bit less consensual when you’re having sex with people who rely on your good opinion for their jobs, probably their health insurance. That’s going to make it harder to say no. But at least they’re adults. The republican party has set a low bar.
You, and some others who pointed it out, are right, of course. I forgot to take the whole subordinate-thing into account. Guess my gut reaction was “at least they’re not kids” because that’s the world we live in now.
Honestly I feel a little bad for her. She had kids super young, now she’s single and ready to have her wild phase that she couldn’t have when she was younger because of her responsibilities to her kids, except now she’s a Republican in Congress, so she still has to reign it in! If she wasn’t actively making the world worse with her actions in office I’d actually feel bad for her
What most people here seem to be missing is that she was fucking her employees.
That’s the problem.
There is a massive power dynamic imbalance when you’re a world-famous politician in one of the highest profile jobs available and you start making moves on underlinings. It’s highly unethical behaviour and has been exactly the conduct that caused many politicians to be ousted and even impeached in the past.
To be fair, Boebert fucking her employees plays into the hierarchical social structure that conservatives support. The fact they’re her subordinates is probably what makes it okay.
Well the issue is the power disparity there. She was basically these peoples boss. Even if it’s consensual, that’s not really a situation one wants to have. And having someone in power over you make sexual advancements is a huge red flag in any case.
Given she is a political figure, they also left her open to being compromised, which is also something you don’t want to have happen to leaders in government. Given there was $200.000 of hush money paid, I’d say she was indeed compromised.
There’s also the whole hypocrisy part, but that’s par for the course when it comes to Republicans. So while still bad, hardly worth mentioning.

It’s actually really easy to not accidentally become a republican congressperson.
Trickier than you’d think. Just ask Fetterman.

That’s definitely true, though her being a republican in 2026… is she expected to face any real consequences?
