It’s kind of like saying “I shot my unfaithful boyfriend, then shot my aunt because I was pissed”

I guess everybody understands what’s going on here. Noem put the anecdote in a book because she thought it was impressive about her ability to make tough choices. But she is so out of her element with an actual ability to make tough choices in the moment, that even her anecdote that she chose in a moment of consideration is just awful.

Agree.

I was going to say she's an idiot, but I dare say she sold a lot of books.

Noem book dogged by new claims of inaccuracies
Days ahead of its release, South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem is mired in yet more controversy surrounding the impending release of her new memoir — and this time, it involves an allegation about former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley.
First came Noem’s disclosure about shooting and killing her 14-month-old wirehair pointer, Cricket, for misbehaving. Then, just as the dog-killing news cycle was cresting, the Dakota Scout reported on an anecdote in “No Going Back” that on its face is highly improbable: Noem’s claim that she met with North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un while serving as a back-bencher in Congress.
“Through my tenure on the House Armed Services Committee,” Noem wrote, “I had the chance to travel to many countries to meet with world leaders. I remember when I met with North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un. I’m sure he underestimated me, having no clue about my experience staring down little tyrants (I’d been a children’s pastor, after all).”
In fact, the only part of this that checks out is Kim “having no clue about” Noem — because they never met.
"Dogged," LOL.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

Dog meat is supposed to be a good winter food. I guess it depends on when she visited. LOL

So I guess she has stared down nuclear families, if not countries.

She's probably terrorized a whole bunch of badly-behaved 8 years olds during her days at Sunday school. Maybe she is qualified to run as Trump's second after all. And we all know how much he likes his Biblical teachings.

Eating a lemon pie and shooting a bad dog that bites people are two different things.
I don't approve of how she did things, but in the real world, country people can and do kill animals. I put two rounds of buckshot into one of my barn toms, because he whipped one of my favorite young cats.
The governor was an idiot for publicizing the incident. Until I know a bit more, I'm not going to say she was an idiot for shooting the dog.
