An investigation into Colorado Republican Lauren Boebert’s priorities has sparked controversy after she attended Donald Trump’s hush-money trial in New York but failed to show up at her teenage son’s court appearance. Boebert, who has a history of controversial behavior, faced criticism for her choices, with some sarcastically dubbing her “mother of the year.”
The former President Trump is currently facing 34 counts of falsifying business documents in connection to deals with his former attorney Michael Cohen. Additionally, he is accused of paying hush money to adult film star Stormy Daniels to cover up an alleged affair. Boebert expressed her support for Trump on social media during the trial, denouncing it as a “pathetic political witch hunt.”
However, while Boebert was vocal in her support for Trump, she was noticeably absent when her 19-year-old son Tyler Jay Boebert appeared in court on multiple charges related to vehicle trespass and property thefts. Tyler faces 22 charges, including felony counts of criminal possession of ID documents and conspiracy to commit a felony, as well as several misdemeanors and petty offenses.
Despite the seriousness of the charges against her son, Boebert did not attend his court appearance, raising questions about her priorities and commitment to her family. Comments on social media criticized Boebert for her absence, with one user remarking that her “values are on full display.”
This is not the first time Boebert’s behavior has come under scrutiny. In 2023, she was reportedly asked to stop taking selfies with Trump at a Republican Christmas event and was later kicked out of a Denver theater for disruptive behavior during a showing of the musical “Beetlejuice.” CCTV footage captured her vaping and engaging in inappropriate behavior with a male companion during the performance.
The contrast between Boebert’s public support for Trump and her absence at her son’s court appearance has drawn widespread criticism. Social media users mocked her, with one jokingly asking if the judge had instructed her to keep her hands visible at all times during the trial.
Despite the backlash, Boebert has defended her son in the past, stating that he has been given multiple opportunities to get his life back on track. However, her failure to show up at his court appearance has raised questions about her priorities and commitment to her family.
In conclusion, Lauren Boebert’s decision to attend Trump’s trial while neglecting her son’s court appearance has sparked controversy and criticism. Her actions have led to questions about her priorities and commitment to her family, as well as renewed scrutiny of her past behavior.
