Liberal MSNBC pundits mocked Congresswoman Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) Wednesday, joking she would be a great addition to sex worker hub OnlyFans if her current House bid fails.
Dem strategist Kurt Bardella made the off-color jest during an interview with MSNBC’s Joy Reid, who asked what Boebert, who’s currently fighting to maintain her House seat in Colorado’s 3rd congressional district, would do if she loses.
“What’s the meaning if Lauren Boebert, the second most popular QAnon congressperson in MAGA, what if she loses?” Reid asked, adding the congresswoman would need another gig given her restaurant Shooters closed down.
“Well, I guess it might be a gain for OnlyFans, I don’t know what she would do in this scenario,” Bardella shot back, prompting Reid to burst out laughing.
The duo was excoriated on social media for compromising their professed liberal values, which are supposed to oppose sexism and misogyny and uphold feminism, in order to get a jab in at the embattled congresswoman.
Creepy looking bitches being sexist to conservative women is perfectly okay on MSNBC. What a fucking sexist lowlife you are @kurtbardella.

Boebert owned a restaurant/bar with 60 employees before she ran.
What has Joy Reid ever done but homophobic blog posts and reading a teleprompter?

The MSNBC hosts were also blasted for throwing shade at sex workers who use OnlyFans to earn a living.
very brave of an MSNBC host to imply sex work is degrading and only desperate people do it

And yet if a conservative said something negative about sex work we’d have a week of specials extolling the virtues of body positivity for commerce.

A previous sanctimonious tweet from Bardella was also dug up showing he once chastised Donald Trump Jr. for his father’s “sexist and misogynistic attitudes.”

Rep. Boebert on Thursday clapped back at the controversial remarks, pointing out, “Liberals even suck at feminism. Can’t y’all do anything right?”
As of writing, Rep. Boebert holds a slight lead over her opponent with 98% of votes counted two days after the midterm elections were held.
