Kristi Noem defended actions described in her upcoming book in which she killed a dog and goat on her family farm.
According to an excerpt, which was obtained by The Guardian, Noem killed her dog Cricket because the dog was “untrainable,” “dangerous to anyone she came in contact with” and “less than worthless … as a hunting dog.”“I hated that dog,” Noem writes, according to the Guardian.
“It was not a pleasant job,” Noem writes, according to The Guardian, “but it had to be done.
Noem describes the goat as “nasty and mean” and having a “disgusting, musky, rancid” smell.
Amid the speculation over her potential as Trump’s vice president continues, Noem would not say whether she would have certified the 2020 election if she were in the same position as former Vice President Mike Pence.
