South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem, who is being mentioned as a running mate for Republican presidential nominee former President Donald Trump, is making a lot of noise after revealing she shot her 14-year-old puppy month. While it’s common for politicians to emphasize their bond with their dogs, Noem wrote this story in her memoir to highlight her “executive power,” but critical voices come not only from progressives but conservatives as well. Some even say that Noem’s nomination for vice president was a total disaster.

The Guardian obtained and published on the 26th an excerpt from Governor Noem’s memoir, “No Going Back,” which is scheduled for publication next month. In the book, Noem details the story of “Cricket,” a 14-month-old German hunting dog. He wrote that he had plenty of energy chasing birds and biting local chickens, but ultimately couldn’t handle it and “shot him in the gravel field.” He wrote: “This dog was worthless as a hunting dog and”. I hated it so much.” Politico said, “He was portrayed in such a way that he deserved to die without any effort to train him or find another owner”, and said this could be considered “animal abuse “.

In addition to this, Noem also revealed why she killed the goat she was raising. He said: “He followed the children everywhere and gave off a bad smell,” but he also shot them. It was also added that one bullet was not enough and another shotgun had to be found. Immediately after this fact became known, X (formerly Twitter) filled with voices criticizing Noem. Many responded, “I don’t know why they proudly wrote this information in the book,” while some netizens also mocked the author by checking a photo of their dog and saying, “Our dog will be safe “. Rep. Jared Moskowitz, a Democrat, released a video asking, “Please save Noem’s dog.”

The memoir comes as Noem is mentioned as a top running mate for Trump in November’s presidential election. The Guardian analyzed: “Noem appears to have brought this up to argue that she can solve difficult and complex problems. As the controversy continued, Noem said in “He Said.” Noem gained attention as a next-generation politician among diehard Republican supporters by rebelling against federal government policies such as wearing masks and social distancing during the coronavirus pandemic. After graduating from high school, she was selected as a “Frozen”, a local promotional ambassador and has star potential.

However, there is speculation that Noem’s nomination as vice presidential candidate failed due to the scandal over the memoir. Even before the 2012 presidential election, the Republican Party faced criticism from both left and right after the publication of a photo of then-candidate Mitt Romney driving with his dog on the roof of his car.
