The 2020 general election is a choice between “freedom” and “government control,” assessed Lauren Boebert, the GOP candidate for Colorado’s Third House District, offering” her comments on Thursday’s edition of SiriusXM’s Breitbart News Tonight with host Joel Pollak.

Boebert defeated Rep. Scott Tipton (R-CO) in the Republican primary June 30.

“We were outspent ten-to-one,” said Boebert. “We defeated [Scott Tipton] by nearly ten points, and it was the first time in 48 years here in Colorado that an incumbent has been defeated in a primary. So the people really spoke up. They’re ready for a strong leader, and they’re tired of DC politics as usual. We elect officials, they go to DC, they become out of touch, and they overregulate, overspend, overtax, and destroy everything that we’re back here at home building.

Boebert continued, “[The people] spoke very loud and clear that they want a strong leader in office.”

She described her Democrat opponent, Dianne Mitsch Bush, as “far-left”. “She’s taking the Biden approach. Right now, she’s hiding in her basement.”

“It’s a very scary world out here in Western Colorado,” Boebert quipped. “So she’s not really talking to the people, but I’m doing grassroots rallies  and meeting with folks, and it’s just so energizing. The momentum is tangible. People understand that we are in a battle now — more than ever — for the heart and soul of our country, and they realize that we need to step up and have a voice in this. because if we’re silent we lose by default.”
