Boebert Sets Internet Ablaze After Photo with Dave Chappelle, But Comedian Says He Was ‘Tricked’
Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert of Colorado touched off a controversy last week after she posted a photo of comedian Dave Chappelle with her on X, using the image as part of America’s ongoing gender wars.
The incident began Thursday when Chappelle was at the Capitol. Republican Rep. Anna Paulina Luna of Florida had stopped Chappelle for a quick word.
As their conversation ended, Boebert approached Chappelle, according to Newsweek.
