There is simply no way she is going to get out of this. Even lots of Republicans love their dogs and wouldn't shoot a puppy.

“I would ask everybody in the country to put themselves in that situation,” Noem told CBS’s Face the Nation about her decision to shoot the dog, named Cricket, after the animal ruined a pheasant hunt and killed a neighbor’s chickens.

Okay. I'm putting myself in that situation.

In that situation, I'd either get someone to properly train the dog or give it up to a rescuer and I would compensate the neighbor.

I doubt she even compensated the neighbor.

She killed her dog and then immidately killed one of her goats too for shits and giggles.

She's not a politician. She's an unhinged lunatic with bloodlust and an itchy trigger finger.

the creature was simply untrainable

This is a lie.

She's a lying, authoritarian monster.

When people show you what they are, believe them.

You know, I kind of agree with her. I, too, am sick of politicians pretending to be something they're not. So I appreciate her candor in revealing herself as a puppy-killing sociopath.

On a related note, I wouldn't vote for her for any office on Earth, because the last thing we need is more puppy-killing sociopaths in charge.

(My dad would say, "I wouldn't vote for her for dog catcher," to say he thought she wasn't fit for any office at any level, but when I think about it, that's probably the office she's least suited for.)

What happens when she decides a demographic of the US is "untrainable"?

She lied about meeting a world leader and had a fake story about it to make her look tough. She's on TV as I write this and she can't even answer any questions about it without dodging. She's such a real character!

I'm confused, who is the "dangerous animal" in this scenario?

Something her pea brain cannot grasp: if I can’t train the dog perhaps someone else can do a better job.

Nope, imma shoot it dead because no one is better than me at anything. This is the Republican Party in a fucking nutshell.

I too am tired of politicians pretending to not be total psychopaths, so perhaps I should be thanking Noem for taking this stance.

I'm tired of politicians pretending to be what they're not too. I'm very glad she showed us exactly who she is, so we can all decide we don't want her anywhere near anything important.

Thank you, K. Noem. If you had lied we might have accidentally voted for you.

Been in a situation with a dog like that and the vet was still the only option. She makes it seem like blowing a dog away is the only option.

She's tired of politicians pretending to be someone they're not? She would go back to pretending about it if she had a lick of sense. Thankfully she doesn't.

I’m tired of politicians pretend to be something that they’re not.

Shot across the bow to all the sociopaths that are politicians.

Her political aspirations are doa and deservedly so. She'll only serve as tabloid trash now.

Please ignore her.

Pretending to be what? Like people who deserve power?
