A French official said there is no record of a scheduled meeting with the South Dakota governor – nor had they invited her
Noem claims in her book that she cancelled a planned meeting between her and Macron in November after she accused him of making “pro-Hamas” comments.
“While in Paris, I was slated to meet with French president Emmanuel Macron,” Noem wrote. “However, the day before we were to meet, he made what I considered a very pro-Hamas and anti-Israel comment to the press. So I decided to cancel.”
Yet a French official told the outlet there is no record of a scheduled meeting with Noem – nor had they invited her.
Her book just deliciously shows how fucked up she is as a person and as a candidate. Please, give us more.
Please, give us more.
You sure about that? It'll only increase her chances of getting voted into office.
Maybe some kind of Carrie-like situation where they elevate her in order to more effectively mock her?
Hell, at this point I'm willing to believe "shoot your dog Cricket at the gravel pit" is some stupid Republican aphorism for "flew to a blue state to have an abortion."
She popped her berserker rage cooldown, and decided it was time to unleash her lifelong desire to harm small animals for fun.
I would not be surprises if the next plot twist in her psycopath story arc was her secretly being a serial killer.
Yeah, but that's just rural livin' in Reel Murica! You elitists just don't understand!
She definitely did, but you wouldn't know him. He went to a different kennel. In Canada...
The dog's name was spelled CRICKET, but was pronounced KIM JONG UN. So she did technically meet and stare him down before gibbing his North Korean puppy ass in the Noem family gravel pit.
Let's see...
No foreign diplomacy experience? CHECK
Sociopathic, narcissistic compulsive liar? CHECK
Deep need to harm the vulnerable? CHECK
This woman is obviously conservative president material. Beware. She really could turn all this attention into a career launchpad.
When asked, she said she doesn’t discuss her interactions with foreign leaders. The subtext is it’s because she never had any.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The French government has joined the chorus of detractors taking aim at South Dakota governor Kristi Noem’s political autobiography No Going Back, which many now see as having eliminated her chances of being Donald Trump’s vice-presidential selection.
According to NBC News, Noem claims in her book that she cancelled a planned meeting between her and Macron in November after she accused him of making “pro-Hamas” comments.
Fury added that “the governor was invited to sit in President Macron’s box for the Armistice Day parade at Arc de Triomphe” – a ceremony that took place on 16 November.
Last week, Noem acknowledged that she “should not have put [an] anecdote in the book” in which she described meeting Kim Jong-un – and feeling underestimated by him – because that purported encounter with the North Korean dictator never happened.
She explained that the 14-month-old wirehaired pointer, Cricket, did not point out game on animal hunts, killed a neighbor’s chickens, and acted aggressively toward her family.
Noem also described shooting dead the family’s billy goat, which the governor said “loved to chase” her children and would “knock them down and butt them”, leaving them “terrified”.
