Former president and current frontrunner for the GOP presidential nomination Donald Trump endorsed embattled republican Colorado Rep. Lauren Boebert Saturday despite her controversial history and the recent news that her son has been arrested and was accused of taking part in a series of car break-ins and credit card thefts in his mother's home state.
Trump was not swayed by her domestic issues and wholeheartedly announced his support for the congresswoman in a Saturday Truth Social post:
“She has led the fight to Impeach Joe Biden, Stop Illegal Immigration, Defend the Second Amendment, Protect our Wonderful Ranchers and Farmers, Support our Military and Veterans, Secure our Natural Resources to Pursue Energy Dominance, and Stand Up to the Radical Democrats who want to Destroy our Beautiful Country,” Trump wrote in a post on TruthSocial on Saturday when announcing his endorsement.
“Congresswoman Lauren Boebert is a trusted America First Fighter, and has my Complete and Total Endorsement for Colorado’s 4th Congressional District!”
Boebert, as we have reported, has opted to switch districts as her current district doesn’t look favorable to her in the next election.
She's seeking the seat left open by Ken Buck:
Boebert, who was first elected to Congress in 2020, announced in December she would be switching districts, abandoning the 3rd congressional and running for reelection this year in the 4th, the district currently represented by Rep. Ken Buck (R), who decided he will retire from his post at the lower chamber.

The CO governor is a queer that made a billion dollars selling a worthless dotcom to including pension funds-never embattled.
She barely won in 22, they didn’t cheat quite enough. I don’t like her chances.
MAGA!
Or more precisely, KAGA!
K eep
A merica
G reat
A lways!
Bob Menendez was caught with a closet full of cash and gold bars and nothing happened.
Boebert is not in the same class as the Democrat cretins.
I am tired of our side canceling ourselves.
Can’t they find a conservative in that entire district?
But she's like Sarah Palin. So her reputation is in the gutter. Which is unfair because if she was a Democrat, 90% of the time, they're not going to care (unless you're Al Franken)
Agreed. She’s a solid anti-establishment, MAGA vote. That’s all we need from her.
Hmmm.
I can think of another son...of a powerful Democrat..
I agree with him.
Normal, conservative people don’t want to get involved in politics. It is what it is.
Of course she was set up.
I seriously doubt too many of us have people with night vision following us around.
It’s what she stands for and what she does as a member of Congress, not what her dumb kid does with his life.
I agree. Lauren is always in there battling away fearlessly at the Marxist Democrats! God bless her. Trump was right to endorse her.
Obviously a set up, as the jackass she was with is a hard core communist (democrat)...which doesn’t speak well of her decision making.
Trump doesn’t abandon loyal supporters with a few bruises. I like that about him. Unfortunately some of his choices backfire on him.
I like her, she’s a fighter. She has bigger gonads than most useless Republicans in Congress. I’ll support her with a check.
As much as Boebert has disappointed (and her family life is a train wreck) I agree with President Trump. Time to stick together, and Boebert has had strong job performance. I hope she wins, and stays away from dating for awhile to help solve the issues with her son.
She is a fighter and she is pro Trump. That works.
