Lauren Boebert: God will stand up a 'mighty army' to save Colorado from the left

Firebrand Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) said Wednesday she expects God will send a "mighty army" to stop the left in Colorado and help her and fellow Republicans succeed.

Boebert, who following a surprisingly narrow re-election in 2022 jumped to a more conservative district on the opposite side of the state, made the comments to far-right former law clerk Mike Davis on Steve Bannon's "War Room" show.

"I moved to Colorado in 2006," said Davis. "I followed then-Judge Gorsuch out to the 10th Circuit, and I remember it was in a pretty Republican state at the time. We controlled the governor's office, lieutenant governor, all the statewide offices, the legislature, a majority of the House seats, and it's gone very blue, very blue since then."

"Yes, we only have 19 Republicans serving in the House, and the Democrats had a blueprint, and they started at the local level and worked their way all the way up," said Boebert. "They had an amazing plan and they executed it and unfortunately Republicans were caught sleeping, sitting on their hands and not doing much. So we lost school boards, county commissioners, statehouses, statehouse seats and senate seats. And then of course, even our governor."

Boebert emphasized that Republicans need to "take back" the "beautiful state," theorizing that many Coloradans fled elsewhere to escape liberal policies.

"They've moved to more free states like Florida and Texas and even Tennessee," she said. "But there is still a remnant that is left that I believe God will use to stand up as a mighty army against these policies that are destroying us. And I need, I need more folks who will fight alongside of me. So I'm doing everything I can to make sure Republicans win in this November 5th election."

Boebert frequently invokes Christian nationalist rhetoric in her work; she also claimed that God used her as an instrument of retribution against former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), who was ousted by a small renegade group of Republicans, triggering weeks of chaos.
