Eric Swalwell Compares Lauren Boebert to the Highland Park Mass Shooter

Eric Swalwell is the last person who should be making dangerous and false accusations against anyone else.

That hasn’t stopped him though.

In fact, Swalwell has gone too far this time.

He’s been obsessing over Rep. Lauren Boebert as of late, posting pictures of her on social media holding firearms.

One photo that he posted appeared to compare Boebert to the Highland Park mass shooter.

“Let’s start drawing straight lines,” he posted with a photo of Boebert and the shooter side by side.

Mind you, he posted this ONE DAY after the shooting.

Seriously, what in the hell is wrong with this guy?

This is dangerous and vile rhetoric that could put Lauren Boebert and her family in danger.

Democrats love to talk about dangerous rhetoric.

Swalwell is a Russia Hoax conspirator and failed presidential candidate that slept with a Chinese spy.

Now he’s comparing me to a deranged murderer.

When will Democrats condemn HIS dangerous rhetoric? https://t.co/lyZGAH0DaD

Fox News has the story:

California Democrat Eric Swalwell appeared to compare his Republican colleague Rep. Lauren Boebert of Colorado to the suspect in Monday’s mass shooting in Highland Park, Illinois that left six people dead and dozens wounded.

Swalwell posted the tweet on Tuesday appearing to compare the Highland Park, Illinois, shooter who killed six people and injured more than 30 at a Fourth of July parade to Boebert.

“Let’s start drawing straight lines,” Swalwell wrote on his congressional Twitter account, posting a picture of Boebert holding an AR-15 rifle juxtaposed to a picture of the suspect, Robert Crimo III.

Eric Swalwell has become somewhat obsessed with Boebert as of late, posting photos of her posing with guns:

Looks like Swalwell has a thing for Lauren Boebert.

“Swalwell’s past association with a suspected Chinese spy named Fang Fang, also known as Christine Fang, with whom he has been accused of having a sexual relationship — a charge he has not denied.” – @dcexaminer https://t.co/cuWb69YmrT

For her part, Boebert rebuked the dangerous and ridiculous accusations, and turned the situation around on Swalwell.

The Washington Examiner reports on her reaction:

Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) slammed Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) for posting a tweet seemingly linking her to the suspected gunman at Monday’s mass shooting in Highland Park, Illinois.

Boebert derided Swalwell as “desperate” and targeted him after he tweeted a picture of her holding a rifle alongside an image of the alleged shooter, Robert “Bobby” E. Crimo III, with the caption, “Let’s start drawing straight lines.”

“I get that Eric Swalwell isn’t a fan of our constitutional rights and is desperate to distract from his repeated political failures, but the only straight line that needs to be drawn is from Eric Swalwell to Fang Fang to the Chinese Communist Party,” the congresswoman said in a statement to the Washington Examiner.

Good on Lauren for standing up against Swalwell:

Trying to link responsible gun ownership with murder makes less sense than @ericswalwell’s Presidential Campaign.

Yes, let’s.

How’s Fang Fang these days? https://t.co/J2na3YZyTY pic.twitter.com/HZGa2gquzb

.@EricSwalwell, give it up creep.

Did Fang Fang block you on WeChat?

You can't date me. https://t.co/ajBTJS3ZNm

Eric Swalwell should be held accountable for this kind of vile behavior.

Eric Swalwell compared @laurenboebert to the mass shooter.

Boebert responded by saying "Law-abiding gun owners won't be smeared and disarmed every time a California failed presidential candidate rolls out of bed with a Chinese spy and tries to blame us for the conduct of others” pic.twitter.com/mKEmjRJlMt
