Can you imagine the damage she could inflict on Trump's campaign? Even better if Madison Cawthorn becomes her press secretary.

Supposedly, the goat was always annoying people and smelled bad. Who does that sound like?

Just exactly what that hag deserves every time she puts her ass in front of a camera and interviewer. She was pathetic, unrepentant and souless. Falling into the dust bin of history is too good for her.

Coming to you soon at Dollar Tree book shelf: Noem’s book full of lies and fiction.

She basically admitted the comment about meeting Kim was a lie without actually saying so. Claimed she didn't know that was in the book (excuse me, Kristi, WHO wrote this book?) and asked to have it removed when it came to her attention. (Translation: she asked to have it removed when she realized it was going to be a problem! )

TSF would have handled it very differently. When he's called on a lie, he doubles down, casts aspersions on any source that contradicts his version, and changes the subject.

“When it was brought to my attention “. WTAF.

YOU EITHER WROTE IT OR DICTATED IT TO YOUR GHOST WRITER.

Did you think that no one was paying attention? And the DETAIL. That he “underestimated” you. And then you won the lottery and Brad Pitt came over and made love to you all night.

Blows my mind that she got in office in the first place. But right wingers love a pretty face I guess.

I know how things go on farms, which is why the life never appealed to me even during the hippie farming resurgence.

Anything that eats but doesn't earn its keep has to go, whether it's an old hen who's stopped laying, a sheep past wool production, a cow past peak milk production...or a dog that is a poor guard dog but nips the kids too hard during play. Chances are her father said the dog had to go and for one reason or another, she got stuck doing the job. A shot between the eyes was instantaneous and as humane as farms get.

So her story doesn't bother me that much, although it freaks out people who would never want it done to Rover or Fluffy. I know what farms are like. That's why I don't live there.

What bothers me more is her confabulation of that North Korea story. No, she didn't cross over the DMZ, that's a good way to get plugged. People who go there fly into Pyongyang. If she wanted to lie about it, she should have at least made it more plausible. She's too pig ignorant to do that.

Another thing is her leadership style. During Covid, she did NOTHING, saying stupid things like "let people decide for themselves" while the death toll mounted. She now calls that "strong leadership."

She's lazy, she's ignorant, she lies, and she has zero insight into why these things might be a problem. She's one of the worst specimens the Republicans have produced. Putting down a farm dog who wasn't earning his keep pales in comparison.

Should be summarily put down (health issues notwithstanding) according to some kind of farm code? what about humans that can't work the land anymore? Children that grow up but just aren't "made" for farming? Shot between the eyes? That's far more disturbing than her lying about Kim.

or, in the case of the dog in question, bury them. Farm dogs are working dogs and a dog that wasn't getting it would be unaffordable. High plains farms are far apart and even farther from the state's cities, which is where they'd have to go to find a Humane Association.

It's the way farms work.

You're bringing up all the reasons hippies made such poor farmers.
