Desi Lydic showed no restraint Wednesday in taking down Lauren Boebert after the Republican firebrand was projected to lose her race for a fourth term in the House.
The “Daily Show’ host flogged the Colorado lawmaker for perhaps her most embarrassing moment as a politician ― the infamous night at the theater where she appeared to grope her date and got shown the door.
“Much like the security guard at ‘Beetlejuice The Musical,’ voters are making Lauren Boebert leave her seat,” Lydic cracked. “In the end, she was unable to turn out the base ― or the shaft, for that matter. And that, my friends, was our final Lauren Boebert handjob joke.”
The comedian blew a farewell kiss, but she wasn’t done.
“Pour out some Jergens for our fallen queen,” she quipped. “OK, that was one more Lauren Boebert handjob joke. I’m finished now, just like the guy sitting next to her in the theater. Ok now I’m really done.”
Boebert hasn’t gone quietly.
She suggested election cheating was afoot through her campaign’s lawyer last week and later refused to concede defeat.
But the lame-duck legislator, who seemingly got beaten by Democrat Eileen Laubacher, did get a sympathetic farewell from the usually acerbic Democratic pundit James Carville.
