Mark Hamill Trolls Lauren Boebert With Epic Reminder Of Her 'Beetlejuice' Antics
Fans are applauding Star Warsicon Mark Hamill for the way he skillfully trolled Lauren Boebert.
Boebert is currently seeking the Republican nomination for Colorado's 4th district—the one she moved to when it became clear she could not win reelection in her original district, Colorado-03.
Hamill presented Boebert with a "win-win" solution in a tweet that hilariously referenced her Beetlejuicegroping debacle—which she should never live down.
Hamill's tweet read:
"Hey Colorado- Please vote for John Padora."
"Not only is he the far superior candidate, but it will give his opponent plenty of free time to catch the ending of the #BeetlejuiceMusical she missed the first time. #WinWin"
Hamill's sick burn included a tweet that featured a TikTok video posted by CO-04 Democratic contender John Padora shot from the very seats where Boebert was caught on surveillance footage getting graphically handsy with her date Quinn Gallagher during a Denver performance of Beetlejuice back in 2023.
@padoraforco Help me beat Lauren Boebert!
In the video, one of a handful Padora filmed in Boebert's legendary Beetlejuice seat, Padora called out Boebert for her district switch, which occurred after Boebert won reelection in Colorado-03 against Democrat Adam Frisch by just 0.16 of a percentage point—or 547 votes—in 2022.
After that unexpectedly close call, rather than be shellacked by what would have been a likely win by Frisch this November, Boebert opted to move from Colorado-03, the western portion of the state that borders Utah, to the heavily Republican Colorado-04 on the literal opposite side of the state, on its border with Kansas.
Given the absurdity of the switch, Padora called Boebert what she is—an "opportunistic carpetbagger" grasping at straws to remain in power. Boebert is currently the Republican front-runner in the state's upcoming congressional primary, with 40% of those polled saying they plan to vote for her. But 40% also remain undecided.
On social media, people loved Hamill's shady takedown of Boebert—including John Padora himself.
And there was no shortage of mockery of Boebert in response.
As for the general election, it's not looking great for Boebert—a recent poll shows her poised to lose and lose big to Democrat Ike McCorkle should he win the Democratic nomination against Padora.
It's too early to know what will happen, of course. But it's delightful just to see Boebert struggle this much, and for her hypocritical Beetlejuice antics to continue following her everywhere she goes.
Colorado's congressional primary election is taking place Tuesday, June 25.
