“I remember when I met with North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un,” she wrote in the book set to be released Tuesday. “I’m sure he underestimated me, having no clue about my experience staring down little tyrants (I’d been a children’s pastor, after all).”
But Noem’s spokesperson seemed to confirm to Politico and other news outlets that the story is not accurate and that the book will be corrected to remove it.
She sounds like the perfect Trump VP candidate: she just says whatever she thinks people will eat up and doesn’t worry about whether it’s true or not.
What kind of children’s pastor brags about “staring down” her charges, or calls them tyrants?
One who is a control freak that lacks empathy?
She’s a brilliant candidate for the woodchipper.
Why are all republicans such nasty people?
Coming back to this, it’s because they want strength. Aka a strongman leader. That’s what they respect, so they assume that’s what everyone else respects too.
They want “order”.
It’s their only core value.
She’s one of those non people. What I mean by that is that there isn’t a personality in her so much as just naked ambition and want which leads to doing and saying anything to “get ahead”. Do that long enough and you lose yourself along the way. Too many lies, too many crazy actions. She’s the same as Santos. Black hole people.
It’s a good thing LYING is NOT against the Bible!
I just don’t get how evangelicals can support people like this. Once upon a time, it was career suicide if a republican politician wasn’t seen going to church on Sundays. Now they get kicked out of theaters for groping their date, cheat on their spouse with a porn star, get caught in lies almost daily, and the Christian right says god chose them to run the country.
Because those things were never disqualifiers for them. Newt Gingrich divorced his wife for having cancer. Reagan was a California divorcee. Going to church is a statement of allegiance, and that’s what they’re concerned with
I think it’s most important for the candidate to hate the same things they hate.
The lie notwithstanding, it’s also rude to the little children!
