Revelation in new book that possible Trump running mate killed ‘untrainable’ hunting dog prompts widespread revulsion
She wrote it in her own book
Sarah Matthews, another Trump aide turned opponent, said: “When I saw tweets about Kristi Noem murdering her puppy, I thought to myself, ‘Damn, one of the other VP contenders’ teams found some oppo,’ until I realized SHE wrote about it in HER book.
“I’m not sure why anyone would brag about this unless they’re sick and twisted.”
The dog was 14 months old
The Guardian revealed Noem’s story, which is contained in a book out next month. In No Going Back: The Truth on What’s Wrong with Politics and How We Move America Forward, Noem describes her frustrations with Cricket, a 14-month-old wirehair pointer who Noem says ruined a pheasant hunt and killed a neighbouring family’s chickens.
“I hated that dog,” Noem writes, saying Cricket was “untrainable … dangerous” and “less than worthless … as a hunting dog”.
“At that moment,” Noem says, “I realised I had to put her down.”
Noem describes taking Cricket to a gravel pit on her farm and shooting her. Remarkably, Noem then describes how she also chose to kill an unruly, unnamed, un-castrated goat, first botching the job then finishing the animal off with a third shotgun shell.
This is the republican mindset. If something isn't completely obedient and useful to me personally, it should be destroyed. That's how they see other humans. Something to be used and then thrown away the moment it becomes inconvenient.
Conservatives: we want psychopaths to lead us
Conservative: why are you killing puppies??
They truly are brainless
If Trump had said this, they would all be out killing their dogs tomorrow.
The GOP in 2024: “It won’t do what I want, so I guess I’ll kill it”
Tbh I’m just surprised that conservatives are up in arms about this…?
Did you read the article? Conservatives are not “up in arms.” Its two former staffers who already turned against Trump and Meghan McCain. No high-level republicans condemned this, and right-wing psychos are celebrating it on Twitter.
Kristi Noem-pathy
On brand for a rebuplican.
I'm thankful people are pretty universally horrified by this
She's an awful, awful person
Republicans are ghouls.
Christ almighty, bitch! Just hand it over to a rescue so some suburbanite family can adopt it and give it some love. Wtf?
If she could let the thing she hates live a life of its own, she wouldn't be a Republican.
The absolute worst people find themselves at the top of Western politics
"Western" eh?
Just imagine what she'd do to "unruly" citizens.
RIP to the ghostwriter currently being flayed alive for possibly costing that ghoul the VP nom
