When former GOP Rep. Adam Kinzinger of Illinois took issue with Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert of Colorado tweeting that “Real men aren’t women,” the congresswoman took the opportunity to dunk on the former congressman.
“I’m retweeting this for one reason. At around 6:30 central time, Lauren decided to tweet this. Why?” Kinzinger wrote in response to Boebert’s tweet. “To anger, stir the pot, offend, and give people a dopamine hit. And raise money. No serious mature debate, just debasing of the whole profession. Twitter isn’t real life.”
“Don’t worry Adam, I don’t consider you a real man,” Boebert replied.
Kinzinger responded with a gif that showed one cartoon character poking another character in the nose.
Boebert posted the “Real men aren’t women” tweet on Wednesday, which was International Women’s Day. “Happy International Women’s Day to all the lovely ladies and not to the boys playing dress up!” she had also tweeted on Wednesday.
First lady Jill Biden and Secretary of State Antony Blinken participated in the International Women of Courage Awards ceremony at the White House on Wednesday, where one of the people honored was a transgender woman from Argentina.
