Lauren Boebert celebrates her latest election win with Trump cut outs and right-wing toilet paper

Minutes before Lauren Boebert took the stage Tuesday night at her election watch party in her new residence of Windsor, Colorado to celebrate her equally new-to-her Colorado congressional seat, a blond child in a “God, guns and Trump” t-shirt removed his red Make America Great Again hat and asked those assembled to do the same as he led the crowd in the Pledge of Allegiance.

Boebert, 37, then addressed the sea of MAGA cap and cowboy hat-clad supporters in the same grain-bin themed venue on old Colorado farmland where she celebrated her June win over fellow Republicans in the CD4 primary. The sitting CD3 Congresswoman had announced plans late last year to abandon her re-election in that district – where she’d lived since a teenager, married and raised her four boys – and move across the state to the more heavily-red CD4.

The decision followed her near loss two years earlier in CD3 to Democrat Adam Frisch, an Aspen businessman and former Independent who seemed primed to give her a run for her money again – literally – as his fundraising and campaigning continued barreling forward robustly for a 2024 rematch.

Despite facing local competitors who gleefully pointed to her carpetbagging, along with a growing list of personal dramas and unfavorable headlines, Boebert won the Republican nomination in June. She’d been the easy favorite in the heavily agricultural and conservative eastern Colorado district – which hasn’t elected a Democrat since 2008.

Boebert leaned into those values Tuesday as she spoke to gathered supporters in the Grainhouse Windsor, where earlier crowd pleasers included a man dressed as Uncle Sam and a woman proudly parading around in a dress fashioned from black garbage bags – a nod, presumably, to recent headlines about Biden comments.

“There are some amazing, godly patriots here who care about our country,” said Boebert, wearing a red MAGA hat, blue pants suit and sparkling cream stilettos. “It’s because of you and your life that our children have a chance at living in this great experiment called America … your ballot that you returned was not just a piece of paper, it was a battle cry for American values.

She continued: “God said that he wants us to go forward, and that’s exactly what we have done together: We have locked arms and gone forward into the fight, taking on every enemy who is against everything that we love.”

Supporters, some sitting at reserved tables with centerpieces featuring Colorado and American flags, along with elephants to represent the Republican Party, dined on a buffet that included nachos and chicken. Eager fans could purchase Boebert “Standing for Freedom” hats, shirts and stickers, and Trump/Vance swag was on sale, too.

One woman in the restroom pointed to the careful selection of toilet paper rolls named “Right Choice.”

Boebert railed against “four years’ worth of crap policy” and called attention to her favorite sticking points, reminding voters of “the 13 service members that died on [Biden’s] watch” – for which she heckled him during the 2022 State of the Union – and gloating about how she’d “taken on Nancy Pelosi.”

A staunch, long-time and vocal Trump stalwart, Boebert told the crowd: “President Trump has said for years that they are after him. They’re after you, and with a bullet to his head, he proves that he’s just in the way – and so tonight is the night that we show him that we are standing by him to fight.”

After Boebert left the stage, the crowd continued watching Fox News presidential election results on a huge screen behind the bar – an unusual hipster setup fashioned from an old piece of farm equipment – and cheering wildly each time a state was called for Trump.

Just after 8pm, when Trump was boasting 205 electoral votes to Harris’ 117, the assembled began chanting “USA.”

Around an hour later, Boebert returned to the stage to claim victory – inviting up her mother and three of her sons, one holding her grandchild. The baby’s father, Tyler, whose February arrest catapulted the Boebert family into the headlines yet again, did not join them.

“The swamp, they thought I would fail – but you all welcomed me to Windsor, Colorado,” Boebert said to cheers – adding that, rather than failing, the victory marked an “A-plus with extra credit with this GED right here.”

Boebert thanked grassroots supporters, big-name Republican donors and her family, also making sure to point out and goad the news media while reiterating her own narrative.

“This is about the policies that change our future,” she said. “This is how we stand for our farmers, for our ranchers. This is how we get a booming economy once again; this is how we stand up to the school board, this is how we stand up to the unions, the Department of Education at the federal level, which I hope President Trump does away with ... this is how we regain the American dream, that fundamental principle thattkeeps us all going, working harder and harder each and every day.

“My Democrat opponent just called and conceded and asked me to uphold our democracy,” she said. “And my response was: I promise you I will uphold America’s constitutional republic.”
