'Funeral for her own career': Lauren Boebert mocked for 'sad turn out' at Colorado event

Colorado Republican Congresswoman Lauren Boebert became the subject of mockery this weekend as social media users made jokes about the lawmaker's apparently sparse crowd at a speaking event in her state. Boebert, who earlier in the month was ridiculed on social media as she sought to highlight an endorsement from Donald Trump, once again took to her X account to share some pictures.

"Great to be with you today, Adams County GOP!" she wrote along with the photos. In the comments of her post, people were quick to point out the empty seats visible in pictures. Referencing Boebert's earlier scandal, user @4HumanUnity said, "It looks like only 10 people showed up. That's significantly lower than the attendance at the Beetlejuice musical."

@BellAirMB added, "Ouch, that is a really small and sad turn out." "Adams County is Blue and you are so screwed," another user wrote Saturday. "Geez they could have met in her living room," @mgstupelo wrote in response.

An account by the name of @Marmel posted one of the photos independently and wrote, "Where was this? It's like Boebert is at a funeral for her own 'career.'" Emily Brandwin, a former disguise officer in the CIA, said, "Be nice, it's the Boebert fan club for her tens of fans....I'm sorry I meant 10 fans."
