It seems like Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo. is taking a leaf out of a fellow congresswoman’s playbook when it comes to rebuking trolls.
Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., took to Twitter to post a photo of Boebert holding a firearm. He declined to add commentary to the photo, though it’s pretty obvious he wasn’t doing it because he wanted to show off his best friend.

Boebert wasted no time firing back at Swalwell, invoking the name of Fang Fang and drawing inspiration from Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
“[Eric Swalwell], give it up creep. Did Fang Fang block you on WeChat? You can’t date me,” the congresswoman snarked.
.@EricSwalwell, give it up creep.
Did Fang Fang block you on WeChat?
You can’t date me. https://t.co/ajBTJS3ZNm

Not that Boebert didn’t have her own fair share of defenders on Swalwell’s photo:
Eric, she is not touching you. Only reason you were able to satisfy Fang Fang is because…. well, you know. LOL!

Probably your best post. Why would anyone ever deprive women of their right to self defense & the defend of their families?

She’s hot, and thank you for not talking. Your words make my brain swell.

So you are stalking her now? Won’t Fang Fang get jealous?
