- 0:00We got a question for our American mama. Dear mama's what was Lauren Bobert
- 0:03thinking, well, let's ask our American mama's mama, and joining is now
- 0:20our American mama's Terry Netteville and Kimberly Burlison. Okay, this is a story
- 0:25out of Colorado. Representative Lauren Bobert, or a Republican firebrand as she's called,
- 0:31was kicked out of a live theatrical production of Beetlejuice. And we only
- 0:35get to say that once just for safety reasons. You don't say that multiple
- 0:38times. Certainly don't say that three times or else he shows up in studio.
- 0:42But anyway, she went and she went to see the play Beetle Oh
- 0:45god, all right, she went to see the play too, and she
- 0:49got kicked out because she was vaping and she was singing along to the songs
- 0:54too loud. But then they had video that was released of the man she
- 0:59was at the play with on a date. He groped her in her rather
- 1:07I guess she's top. That showed all of her boobs, well I mean
- 1:11not all of it, but at least a third and then and then she
- 1:15grabbed his crotch yeah, just sitting in the chairs and Okay, So what's
- 1:22surprised you most about all this? Well, a couple of things. First
- 1:26of all, I mean it just felt immature, was silly. It was
- 1:30like teenagery. She's a thirty seven year old grandmother, her son, you
- 1:34know, she has four boys and she and her husband are going through a
- 1:36divorce. But it was one of those things that I was like, oh,
- 1:40not a good look, sister, just not a good look. She
- 1:42didn't know she was being video type for sure. But what interested me is
- 1:49that this is a liberal bartender who has drag shows in his bar. Yeah.
- 1:56So there was a part of me that thought was this set up because
- 1:57I don't try. I'm so cynical, but I don't trust anything. I'm
- 2:01like, wait a minute, this is somebody that's a trumper, and she's
- 2:06an always trumper. She loves Trump, and so to be with a liberal,
- 2:12drag queen bar owning democrat made me think like, wait, what,
- 2:16something's not right about this. Something didn't feel like I felt the same way.
- 2:20I felt like, you can't. I don't trust democrats, which is
- 2:23crazy because I loved it. There's some I love, but I don't trust
- 2:28their motives with her. Do you know how we are growing up? Dad
- 2:30would say, always remember who you represent? Remember in school, said he's
- 2:36watching, remember who you represent. So to me, I'm like, what
- 2:39were you thinking, Lauren? You represent your state, you represent the country,
- 2:46you represent your family, four boys? What are you thinking? Yeah?
- 2:50She wasn't. But here's the kicker. And this is kind of what
- 2:53changed things for me a little bit because I was kind of like, oh,
- 2:57you know, could not roll my eyes harder. Well in Steven sent
- 3:00a link to me to let me you know, it was like her ex
- 3:05husband's side of this, and when I read it, I went WHOA.
- 3:08He said he blamed himself because in my mind, I'm thinking, would she
- 3:13get too big for britches? She's leaving her husband and her family. I
- 3:15just I don't know why I assumed that it was her. It was him,
- 3:19he said, he is he blamed himself for the divorce. He said
- 3:23that it's far from the truth that she left him because of fame or new
- 3:27lifetok, because you know that's what was going around everywhere. And then he
- 3:30said that was him that caused the hurt. He's the one that was unfaithful
- 3:34and through that time, she was able to put a smile on her face
- 3:38and worked so hard for the country, knowing that she was dying inside for
- 3:40what he had done to her. So he says to her directly on Facebook,
- 3:44if you're reading this, I want you to know that I stand behind
- 3:46you. You're the hardest working person I know, selfless, overflowing with love,
- 3:51and I hate the attacks that are coming your way. It changed the
- 3:53way that I felt about her. I thought, here's this woman who was
- 3:55so gutted, so hurt, and now and she the firebrand. Sometimes she
- 4:01cringes me out a little bit when she's on there. I'm not gonna lie,
- 4:04she's not somebody that I actually heard Marjorie Taylor Green there. Yes,
- 4:09they're the same. She was the same, and I'm like, they are.
- 4:13I didn't know that other well. That actually didn't surprise me, because
- 4:16you got these two egos that are very like and both of them are always
- 4:21trumpers and yeah they're yeah they're fighting. We'll have talked about that at a
- 4:25time. I didn't know about that. But what do you think that she
- 4:29said? What do you think or what would you have said to your boys
- 4:32if this had happened to you what would what do you think she should have
- 4:36said or could have said to her boys, to her family after this this
- 4:41so this teenagery act, this embarrassing act. Do you think that she said?
- 4:45Guys? I think that's exactly. It was a mortifying experience for her.
- 4:49I think she's embarrassed. I don't think she really owes anybody in apology.
- 4:54I just doesn't. To me, it's not like scandalous, it's embarrassing.
- 4:58Yeah, so I think that it'd be like that was so stupid.
- 5:00I don't know. But what's cracking me up is it's this midlife crisis thing.
- 5:03Is what it looks like to me? What she's wearing. You saw
- 5:06what she was wearing, and when did you see her when they escorted her
- 5:10out of the theater. She was walking in that like bompo, bomp you
- 5:15know what I'm talking about it You could hear the music with that little I
- 5:19was like, what is going on? And then yours off the camera like
- 5:24a teenagerist like she's in this little rebaby. Yeah. I don't know.
- 5:28I feel sorry for her. At the same time, I'm like, Okay,
- 5:30you just did something that it might take away your chances to be representative
- 5:34for your state again in the district, which is crazy, but if you
- 5:39know better, do better, even like desk our American Mama is a question.
