It also exposes how poor her political instincts are to commit an unforced error like this. Why in the world would you tell the world that you murdered a puppy if you have ambitions for office beyond a state where everyone cosplays a cowboy? Trump may hate puppykillers, but he LOATHES losers. And she marked herself as a loser.

She literally put "I guess if I were a better politician I wouldn’t tell the story here," in her own book after writing about how she killed the puppy.

"Kristi Dakota seemed good. Very good. Her state isn't important in the electing college but maybe (maybe-maybe) she could be VP material. Central casting. She looks strong and good. And this abortion thing needs a woman probably. Goat killer dumb but okay. Maybe. Nobody loves goats. But puppy killer is a very bad politics z-lister mistake. So - no... no. Bye-bye Dakota."
