Rep. Lauren Boebert Went After 'Micky Mouse' And It Did Not Go Well
An embarrassing typo sent extremist Rep. Lauren Boebert’s (R-Colo.) rant about Disney off the rails.
In an apparent response to Disney’s vow to support the repeal of the “Don’t Say Gay” law that Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) signed last week, the conspiracy theory-endorsing lawmaker on Monday tweeted:
Rep. Lauren Boebert
@RepBoebert
Next year, the woke Disney lobbyists will ask Congress to extend Micky Mouse’s trademark.
I think not.
Critics highlighted Boebert’s lack of knowledge about copyright and trademark laws. Many mocked her “Micky” typo. Others suggested the final three words were her most honest yet.
Rep. Eric Swalwell

M-I-C-K-E-Y
There’s literally a song that taught millions of us how to spell it. If these losers weren’t dumb we’d be screwed.

This is not how any of this works.
-Congress doesn’t legislate individual trademarks.
-Once the US Patent and Trademark Office registers a trademark, it can last forever if it’s renewed.
-It’s Mickey Mouse not Micky.
-Why do Republicans want to cancel Mickey Mouse?
