GOP Rep. Lauren Boebert has taken a cardboard cutout of Kamala Harris to the US/Mexico border in a brazen statement against the Vice President.
The 34-year-old Republican Congresswoman took to Twitter on Tuesday, June 8, to share how she had taken the cutout of the Vice President to the southern border.
Her stunt was performed to protest the lack of construction progress on former President Trump's wall and the VEEP's perceived disinterest in visiting the border.
In a post shared with her 135,000 followers on the platform, the Colorado representative tweeted:
"What’s up at the Southern Border? Not the WALL! Since the current regime doesn’t care, I’m going to keep fighting until we fix this border issue.
"Donate to my campaign today so I can keep the pressure on Cacklin’ Kamala & her puppet, Joe! [sic]"
The erection of the wall was one of Trump's key policies during his 2016 election campaign - but Republican's have been left frustrated by the thwarted pace during President Biden's administration

Per The Daily Mail, Boebert states in the video: "More than 70 days ago, Biden named cackling Kamala as border czar but she hasn't done a single thing to protect the American people.
"You can't just hear about what's happening, you have to come down here to see for yourself to understand the devastating reality at our southern border."
She went on to discuss how the illegal movement of people has surged in recent months and ended a video with a plea to viewers to donate to her reelection campaign.
The Mail reports that the VP has faced renewed pressure on the subject of why she has not visited the border since assuming office, despite mounting criticism and invitations.
According to the Mail, the Vice President addressed the controversy in a press conference held in Mexico held on Tuesday, stating that she was more concerned by the recent humanitarian crisis in Guatemala.
Per The Mail, Harris stated: "Listen, I've been to the border before and I'll go again. But when I'm in Guatemala, dealing with root causes, I think we should have a conversation about what's going on in Guatemala."
