    Well hating the animal is a step too far. Everything else might be defensible.

    I think making killing a dog a good metaphor for being a good politician is a little too on the nose.

    Wasn't that the opening scene of House of Cards, where Spacey's character strangles an injured dog in the street?

        Could be worse, she could have tied it to the roof of her car eaten it.

          On my part I just don’t get what point she is trying to make by telling the story in the first place. All I can say is that she should have kept her dog leashed when visiting someone’s farm, especially a dog known to be excitable, misbehaved and difficult to train. There are professionals out there who can help in such instances.

          Frankly, if I were to meet someone and they would tell me that story, I would think that person to be an idiot who had no business owing a dog (or a firearm) in the first place.

            "The ability to make tough choices."

            There are things you think.
            There are things you do.
            There are things you talk about.
            There are things you publish.

            Each of those is a smaller group. She should know that.

                Exactly. I've never been impressed with her, although JW( P)HT.

                WHat's more important for a politician than "making tough choices?"

                Knowing what to say, and when to keep your yap shut.

                    Has anybody considered this could be a secret code to Deep State that she'd be willing to do what needs doing if Trump went too far off message? 😀

                        She put that dog into situations that she knew it wasn’t going to be able to handle and then she killed it when it lived up to her expectations. Stupid Bitch.

                          Yeah, that's pretty much it. Just what we need advising Trump. Luckily, he's a really stable genius.

                              I mean, yeah, that's what I find fascinating, too. She actually thought this was not only an example of good character, but so good she'd put it in a book to boast about herself. But, like I said: politician.

                                      Stuff happens with dogs and I’m no absolutist that bad dogs have bad owners. Back when he was in China, my wife’s dog killed some chickens after wrenching his leash from her grip. He’s also bitten her when she’s gotten overconfident about her ability to grab something from him. She took him to dog school when he was young and has always treated him dotingly. But Malamutes are not always the most civilized dogs.

                                      Education is extremely important.

                                        On my part I just don’t get what point she is trying to make by telling the story in the first place.

                                        I mean, yeah, that's what I find fascinating, too. She actually thought this was not only an example of good character, but so good she'd put it in a book to boast about herself. But, like I said: politician.
