"This dentist (in Texas) is great!"

She's done teeth and feet. What's next - something mid-way between them?

I don't think she should doing that. Okay to say "support local businesses", but not doing a commercial for a dentist in Texas. Is she that hard up for money?

The next logical step would be 'Real Housewives of South Dakota' which sounds like a thrilling prospect for a reality TV show

Gov. Kristi Noem (R-SD) has been banned from some 10% of South Dakota, the state she governs. On Tuesday, the Standing Rock Sioux Tribal Council voted to ban Noem from areas under its control. Combined with bans from the Oglala Sioux Tribe in February and the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe last week, the Republican governor is now banned from about one-tenth of the state,

The banishment came in response to remarks Noem made about the Native Americans of the state, accusing tribal leaders of not doing enough to expunge the influence of drug cartels.
Governor Kristi Noem’s wild and irresponsible attempt to connect tribal leaders and parents with Mexican drug cartels is a sad reflection of her fear-based politics that do nothing to bring people together to solve problems,” SRST Chairwoman Janet Alkire said in a press release. “Rather than make uninformed and unsubstantiated claims, Noem should work with tribal leaders to increase funding and resources for tribal law enforcement and education.”
The director of the Lakota People’s Law Project, which says on its website that it "works closely with tribal nations and nonprofit compatriots to amplify Indigenous voices" and "provides on-the-ground support when and where it is needed most," said Noem is "prohibited from entering sovereign territory of Sioux bands."
Noem is also "subject to detention and/or removal if she violates banishment orders, meaning the state’s governor is barred from entering more than 10 percent of all land her state claims is within its ‘borders,’” Chase Iron Eyes said.

I admit that I know next to nothing about US Indian reservations, but at my very high level view, it reminds me a bit of the Wa people in Myanmar that I read about in a recent book, Narcotopia. Take a group of people, put them in pretty much the most isolated, desolate place you can find and tell them to "go ahead and become economically successful. But dont do anything illegal."
"But that is the only things that grow here or way to make money. If we stop that, what do we do in its place."
*shrug. "Dont know and dont care."

She should probably warn the Indians about the Great Replacement and the dangers of unrestricted immigration.
