Even though her decision was probably correct, you have to “read the room.” This “backlash” was utterly foreseeable.
This is yet another example of the double standard in the media. Democrats can do hugely illegal and outrageous things, over and over again. No spotlights on that. But any possible misstep by a Republican becomes national news.
It’s obviously very unfair. It’s also stone-cold reality. So Republicans have to play it smart. All the time.
That’s not a problem....but she should have proceeded directly ts STFU after engaging in shooting and shoveling.
The story was leaked. If anybody out there has a publishable book, find out who Noem’s agent and publisher are and boycott them. They don’t deserve to stay in business with such shoddy ethics.
“When it becomes necessary to shoot your dog, do it yourself. It’s neither kind nor proper to hire it out.”
She’s an Idiot. Don’t waste your credibility defending the anorexic Idiot.
My congressman years ago blamed the Mainstream Media for reporting on the fundraiser for him featuring John Boehner.
It didn’t change the fact that he kissed up to RINO Speaker John Boehner.
The congressman trying to distract back then and Kristi Noem is doing nothing different than what he did back then.
We could use a gal like that.
Might make Iran nervous.
I am fine with this, and saving money and time.
She is prudent and like my family and friends, growing up on farms.
And the media has piled on by calling an adult dog a puppy.
But perhaps her ranch mentality hasn’t been sufficiently tempered with an understanding of broader American sensibilities.
(Romney has no such explanation for his torture of the family dog.)
Goat is supposed to be good eating. Starting to like this Gov.
I have ZERO issue with putting down a dog that has been killing other animals and biting at humans.. ZERO.
Insane panty wastes getting upset over this are useless, and show just how weak we are.
If they had their way, Old Yeller would just maul the family to death, because how can we put a “pet” down... how cruel.
Insanity.
No wonder murderers and rapists walk free, no one is willing to stand up an do the right thing, because it hurts their feelings.
What is rule #1 when you find yourself in a hole?
STOP DIGGING.
I think Jill Biden should put Joe down...
I don’t know enough details about killing a dog, but since she supported killing girls’ sports in SD, she’s not the one for Trump. Regardless of her looks, Trump can do better.
Sadly same here. People often dump sick, old or injured dogs in remote areas. Several have had Parvo.
They have no idea of what the realities of life in the flyover states are like and have been since the settlers moved west.
As I understand it she gave the dog three warnings before she finally put it down? And to the news guy who questioned her actions she stated, “That’s one!”
Kill your dog. Don’t kill your baby. 65% of our evil country disagrees with that.
