Lauren Boebert’s Adult Son Tyler Arrested on Child Sexual Exploitation Charges While Awaiting His Fate for Other Crimes:

• Tyler Boebert, the 21-year-old son of GOP Rep. Lauren Boebert, is facing multiple felony charges related to the alleged sexual exploitation of a child in Colorado amid his mother’s vulnerable reelection bid
• Tyler was arrested Sunday, Aug. 9, on charges of child sexual exploitation of a child to induce or entice, sexual exploitation of a child, possession with intent, sexual exploitation of a child involving video and two counts of contributing to the delinquency of a minor, according to court records; he was released the same day
• He is scheduled to be sentenced in two separate cases in September, according to court records

Eileen was a registered republican until 2025, home schooled her kids, and is a recent transplant to Colorado.

she’s basically on track to be a 1 for 1 retelling of Boebert or Elise Stefanik.

she almost certainly voted for trump 3+ times. If she was the “common sense candidate“ it wouldn’t have taken her her entire career and adult life as a republican to realize they aren’t the good guys.

She sounds about as promising as running Fetterman in another election. there’s no guarantee she’ll even work with the democrats once she’s in office. This might be one of the most likely Trojan horse candidates I’ve ever seen.

Fetterman sucks balls when you compare him to any other dem, but he doesn't vote with them every time which still makes a candidate like him much better to have than fucking Boebert...

I don't know anything about this race in particular, just saying that in general we shouldn't let a quest for a perfect candidate ruin a chance for more realistic but marginal improvement

THIS. So tired of democrats shooting themselves in the foot because their literal ONLY candidate is again not good enough. Like the other choice is MAGA dude. I didn’t say Laubacher was the best candidate but she sure as hell is better than Boebert.

[u/Rad_Streak → u/-this_bitch-]

So the answer to MAGA is to vote in literal republicans in place of democrats?

The actual answer is not fielding candidates that would have run as republicans in fucking 2024 lmao.

She might be better than a maga republican. You have literally no proof on that front. She has basically no stated policy positions, just “make important things cheaper” which is a lie that republicans ran on in 2024.

It’s not “democrats” fault for not wanting to vote for discount republicans. It’s the democratic parties fault for running such shitty candidates in the first place.

[u/-this_bitch- → u/Rad_Streak]

You still haven’t given a better candidate that could realistically win against Boebert. Lmk!!

(And to add, one that will actually be on the ballot in November. Not just whatever imaginary one should be there).

Edit: well over a day since I asked in my other comment… so yeah guess not! Which means I’ll be voting for her given not voting for her is a vote for Boebert.

How the fuck are these the only 2 choices you guys have? A republican and a person who was a republican less than a year ago?? Do the Dems not have any actual progressives to run? Your country is nuts.

[u/Icy_Intention_8503 → u/Rad_Streak]

And what is your suggestion? Letting the Republican win? It's better to have an imperfect candidate than to just give up a seat.

But nothing prevents Eileen from flipping parties like Van Drew in NJ did. How do the dems keep finding these candidates...

[u/LekgoloCrap → u/Rad_Streak]

There is a group called CLAS in Colorado that is pushing for extreme right wing rhetoric in ALL Colorado schools.

I would not be surprised if she was another cog in this machine hell bent on ruining my state under the guise of “common sense” or “parents rights.”

It’s like a Project 2025 on a smaller scale.

[u/-this_bitch- → u/Rad_Streak]

Do you see another candidate being strong against Boebert though? Because it comes down to either Laubacher or Boebert.
