A rightwing journalist named Scott Greer was raked across the coals after claiming that Republican Colorado Representative Lauren Boebert was the rightwing version of renowned global superstar Taylor Swift.
Other than both being women, the two couldn't be more opposite.
Note the study in contrasts between Swift and Boebert below. Are you ready for it?
One performs in sold-out arenas while the other was kicked out of a local theater for lewd behavior, i.e., fondling her boyfriend's genitals at a family-friendly musical performance.
One makes sizable donations to food banks in every city where she performs while the other has used MLK Day to call for an end to "woke America."
And while Swift broke barriers and empowered women in the music industry, Boebert set back advancements for women by identifying them as "the lesser vessel", saying "we need masculinity" to counteract that gender imbalance.
Greer, a former writer and editor for the rightwing news and opinion site The Daily Caller, laughably suggested that Boebert was the right's answer to Swift, writing on X (formerly Twitter):
"To those who might say, 'The Right need its own Taylor Swift for young women to look up to!'"
"I answer we already have that. Her name is Lauren Boebert."
Scott, whose X handle is followed by his alleged height (6'2) and IQ (187), was mocked immediately for such an awful take.
she's a divorcee' who just got busted in a family theater rubbing one out for her boyfriend, while getting felt up and vaping. Real good role model.

Some wanted clarification.
You mean a teenager who got pregnant and dropped out of high school and then worked at Hooters, got arrested three times, and failed her GED three times and that married a registered sex offender and then had a son who got a 15-year-old pregnant and flashes white power signs…

Wait...let me look around...we're getting punked, right?
You cannot be serious.
I'm not much of a Taylor Swift fan but I'd use her as a symbol over Boebert any day of the week, especially after Boeberts display in that theater.

Others thought he excelled in comedy.
Good one, Scott. We see what you did there.
