Boebert's SOTU heckle disrespected the president and veterans like me

Biden has choked up talking about the loss of his son – a moment no parent should ever have to experience. When Boebert interrupted him, I also got choked up out of a combination of anger, grief and frustration.

No one should have their thoughts about service member sacrifice stifled. Everyone should be able to speak about the loss of a loved one. When she stifled the president, she was also stifling me. Surely others who have lost loved ones felt that, too.

In the same tweet, Boebert mentioned that “our heroic servicemen and women deserve so much better.”

Boebert does not speak for me. And neither do other members of the GOP who reinforced her sentiments on social media.

Are they really supporting service members? Or cloaking their desire for division in false patriotism?
