Everyone piles on after Lauren Boebert steps in it
Congresswoman Lauren Boebert has based her entire career around anti-government stances, and she’s continually called for things like the Affordable Care Act to be revoked. She’s about as opposed to the notion of government-supplied health care as one can be.
Yet Boebert announced today that she just had surgery to repair a dangerous clot in her leg, resulting from what appears to be a pre-existing condition. We wish her a speedy recovery, of course.
But everyone quickly noticed the hypocrisy of an anti-government, anti-healthcare politician like Boebert relying on her government-supplied healthcare as soon as she needed it. So many people began dunking on Boebert for her hypocrisy, her name spent much of Wednesday trending on social media.
