Mitt Romney and Kyrsten Sinema’s Ted Lasso cosplay is killing us
The politicians deserve a red card for their Halloween costume interpretations of Ted and Rebecca
2021 has been a rocky year for Ted Lasso fans. First, their beloved show that they spent the better part of a year trying to convince everyone to watch finally caught the public’s eye, leading to the inevitable cynical backlash. Then, amid an already divisive season, Ted Lasso dumped that Coach Beard episode on us, and what the hell are we supposed to do with that thing? We, the fans of Ted Lasso, are fortunate the detractors never actually watched the show because they would’ve had a field day with that mess.
Now, two of America’s worst people, Senators Mitt Romney and Kyrsten Sinema, took time out of their busy schedules of killing paid family leave to show off their Ted Lasso Halloween costumes. Unfortunately shown below, Romney’s Ted (which looks more like a Pierre Delecto costume) and Sinema’s Rebecca share some stale biscuits in an attempt to make themselves appear more likable. Barf.
And, then proving what we already know (they’ve never seen the show), attributed Friday Night Lights catchphrase to Lasso. Give us a break.
