There are plenty on the right who have and love dogs. Even literal monsters like Mark Levin are dog lovers.

We've seen a lot over the last decade, but this might be the most bizarre way to end a political career yet.

Yes.

That is how unfit she is for office, she thought that murdering a dog would come across as endearing.

You're expecting her to keep track of the, like, two things that MAGAts aren't okay with murdering.

You're expecting a lot.

It's more shocking that some conservatives think it isn't normal behaviour.

She's someone who is forbidden from ever going onto any reservation in SD because of her racism towards indigenous peoples, so, ya, she probably did.

She doesn't seem smart at all, not even politically.

I'm convinced that she realized she had a really good chance of being Trump's VP pick and didn't want it. This was her emergency exit.

That might make sense had she not doubled down on defending what she did a day or so ago.

Even Republicans are largely pissed off over this because they can be pet lovers, too.

It would be a stupid way to get out of being his VP picks when it's not even official. Now she just comes off as some sociopath even her own side largely condemns and might spur non-Republican voters to work extra hard to remove her from office.

I wonder if she has some pr team, cause goddam what a bad move. Letting everyone know what a psychopath she is. I mean MAGA is okay with certain psychopath behavior, she couldve said she killed minority for sports and may have gotten the VP nom, but dogs... 98% of America loves dogs. And its also her BS reasoning to do so.

I see it the opposite way around -- this sick stunt makes her the clear front runner to be Trump's VP pick.

"Endearing" is the wrong word. What that story is trying to convey is, unlike the feckless vegan snowflake liberals who are scared of guns and American values, she's capable of making the tough decisions needed to be seen as a good leader in a conservative hierarchy.

It also might be intended to imply that she's gonna be coming for antifa and the groomers and the fentanyl dealers and the [insert minority group that you hate here].

There's also the implication that "unlike that ____ Pence, President Trump, if I'm your VP I'll do whatever it takes..."

What's the tough decision? If you're unwilling or unable to devote the time necessary to train a puppy, you give it up for adoption/give it to a friend/family member/etc. That is what 99.9% of people would do. You don't shoot it in the face.

Just like the cops when they murder defend themselves against unarmed black teenagers, Noem's gut instinct that the dog is "bad" and deserves to die should never be questioned.

That only makes sense if you think like a normal person and not a super right wing fascist type person.

I feel bad for the goat. He was just a footnote who would've been ignored entirely if not for his death being part of the mad chain of events of her killing a dog.

Like, "This person hurt/killed a puppy" is the go-to trope we use in stories to show that a character is completely, irredeemably evil. I can't even comprehend how delusional you'd need to be to think that this would reflect positively on you to anyone.

dog was a democrat and it did bad things so she decided to give the ultimate punishment...

It's supposed to be a "I know how to make tough decisions" type thing but she made it sound like she was doing it because the dog was a nuisance rather than idk it was suffering and it was merciful to let it go.

According to her own book, it was a 14 month old dog she was trying to train to hunt pheasant but wouldn't listen to her then it got out of her truck and killed some chickens belonging to another family. Her response was to take the dog to a gravel pit and kill it with a shotgun.

Immediately after she decided a goat the family owned also needed to die because it was apparently smelly and mean and knocked her kids down and ruined their clothes. So she took it to the pit and shot it too.

Yup. I'm reminded of The Good Place. Everyone missed it at the time, but it was the one of the first hints that things may not have been how they appeared.

Trump hates dogs. Maybe she thinks sharing this story will help her get approval from the Orange Messiah, and thus the VP nomination. Although all it did was show herself to everyone for the horrible person and pyschopath she is.
