‘WE’RE LOSING’ Lauren Boebert Breaks Silence As GOP Faces Midterm Election Setback

Hi, I'm just going to answer this question that he asked me since y'all are the vultures and surrounding. So he asked why Republicans like myself did poorly in this election. So I know CNN called my race, but we still have thousands of ballots in my district that need to be counted. We've been curing ballots for over a week and we need to make sure that every vote counts and every voice is heard. We still have military and overseas ballots that are coming in. And we'll see what that number is. Hopefully, we'll have that number on Friday. And whatever decisions are, whatever comes of that, then we'll accept that and move forward in whatever way. But I think. Overall, I mean, look at the kind of Republicans that are losing their races. I mean, yeah, things are not great in the 4th District right now. And also you have the Mike Lawlers of the world and the Fitzpatricks and the NRCC chairman. So this wasn't about a brand of Republican. People are frustrated. And I think I've talked to many of you enough over the past year and a half especially to even air my frustrations. I think that we could have done a lot more. We had a lot of wasted opportunities. And this is our opportunity to regroup and rebuild. There's a lot of freshmen that are coming in. And hopefully, they don't take the bait and get the whole. Freshman orientations feel of just do things the way we've always done them and you could have a really nice life here because clearly America hates the way we do things up here. How much does that have to do with the Iran war and the President's handling of the Iran war? Yeah, I mean obviously everyone the day after the election says maybe it was the war. I was very frustrated about the war. I mean here in Congress, I mean we had some procedural votes. about the war that wasn't going to stop anything, so there was nothing that Republicans could have necessarily done to stop that, but I was very frustrated with that, and now I was facing an opponent who supported every war, said war was good for business even, but this is the one that she decided to be against, and that was enough, I guess. Do you blame the president at all? I don't blame any one person. We all could have done better. I mean, I was talking to my team in my district. You know, I don't think that more money would have made a difference. There's plenty of members who spent millions of dollars, and I refuse to do that this time. I wasn't going to just squander millions to, you know, convince somebody to like me. I've represented 53 of our 64 counties in Colorado. People know me. And I think most politicians get on TV with millions of dollars to sell a lie. And it's pretty expensive. Will you vote against impeachment, sir? No. President Trump told 60 Minutes that his immigration policies went too far. Do you agree with that? No, I don't think they went far enough. Who do you think will be best at leading the Republicans forward? We have a vote tomorrow. I'm supporting Tom Emmer for whip. For sure, I can make an argument that no one in current leadership should remain in leadership. I would make an exception with Tom Emmer. I think he's a fantastic whip, and his job is to count the votes, not to necessarily pressure anybody to vote one way or bring policy to the floor. So, I am endorsing Tom Emmer for chair, or sorry, for whip, and it sounds like Greg Steube is entering the race for conference chair, and he has my endorsement. And what about for leader? We'll see. What do you think Republicans need to do differently to live back voter stress in 2020? Well, you know, it's interesting, so in Colorado, Democrats supposedly won because things are unaffordable. Well, my state of Colorado is unaffordable because of one-party Democrat rule and all of the fees and taxes and all of this, but also, while voting... To say things are unaffordable, they also voted for every single tax increase that was on the ballot. So, you know, I mean, I think there's some policy issues that we can get right, but we have a younger generation that we need to start listening to and focusing on. So, awesome. Well, thank you guys.
