It nearly sunk GOP Presidential candidate Mitt Romney in 2012.
No, not a the notorious "binder full of women".
During a 1983 family vacation, American businessman and future politician Mitt Romney drove 12 hours with his dog on top of the car in a windshield-equipped carrier. This incident became the subject of negative media attention and political attacks on Romney in both the 2008 and the 2012 presidential elections.
Fast forward to 2024 and South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem callously murdered a puppy she claimed ruined a hunting trip and called "less than worthless".
Cricket was shot dead, his lifeless body thrown in a gavel.
"I hated that dog," Noem writes in a soon-to-be-release memoir.
As if that weren't bad enough, the blood thirsty Governor would go on to blow the brains out of a goat.
The goat she called “nasty and mean" and shot him twice, because the goat dared to move after the first bullet hit.
Surprised she didn't kill the neighbor's cat while she was at it.
As of Friday night, Veepstake odds for Noem were 4th shortest at 10-1.
Folks who bet on Noem to be the next Vice President are definitely saying "Doggonit!" - or some version of that expression of disgust - this weekend, quickly coming to the realization this is a losing bet.
As if the story couldn't get any worse....it does.
The entire ordeal was reportedly witnessed by a construction crew nearby and once she concluded her blood lust, a school bus came by to drop off her children.
Her daughter, Kennedy, Ms. Noem wrote, “looked around confused” and asked, “Hey, where’s Cricket?”
“I guess if I were a better politician, I wouldn’t tell the story here,” Ms. Noem wrote in the book, set to be published by Center Street on May 7. But she framed the day’s events as reflecting her willingness to do anything “difficult, messy and ugly,” whether that be in farm ownership or in politics.
It’s so tragic that Kristi Noem didn’t see this important PSA before she did what she did. #Justice4Cricket pic.twitter.com/86T7Coa4SJ
