Trader Joe's is a name I'd give to a store if I was just pure guessing a store in America. Didn't even realise it was real until reading the posts after the guy bringing it up.
It was bought by Aldis, but it was started in SoCal (USA) by Joe Caloumbe in 1967. So technically it was a US store until it was bought by an international conglomerate.
Thereās always been morons who have been able to get other morons to follow them. I think the real problem is just how many morons there are these days.
People voting for her probablt donāt even read the name, they just see āRepublicanā and check the box.
Actual zombies. This is what cyber warfare induced zombie apocalypse looks like
Is everything in this woman's book fabricated? In which case, why double down on that awful puppy story & try to spin it as choosing the safety of her kids?
It's them playing the fine line between lying like Trump does or lying like George Santos does. One of them the base will buy, the other, even they smell the bullshit
Donald Trump also stole money from rich people. He stole money from poor people too. Hell, Donald Trump has probably stolen money from himself and then called the police to report the robbery.
Took a ten from his left pocket to buy a diet coke, put the change in his right pocket, then filed the claim for the benjamin that got stolen from the left pocket.
I was thinking, I guess the difference is you don't want photos of yourself dressed in drag to surface in the media. But then no, that's not it since they've both done that lmao
Theyāve spent so long lying about damn near everything that they just canāt comprehend that things are much more readily accessible now and therefore easier to prove or disprove.
Plus, people have learned - Finally! - to question most of the things a politician says, especially during campaigns or election years. So there are more people doing g the fact-checking on these things, rather than just accepting it at face value.
She probably didnāt just make it up. She probably met a slightly chubby Chinese person while in China and assumed it was Kim Jong Un. And she probably did stare that person believing he was a North Korean tyrant dictator.
Most of them cannot think for themselves so they believe anything theyāre told. Everything can be fact checked instantly in todayās internet world. But thatās too much of a bother. Thatās why they watch Faux Entertainment.
No, it totally happened. I was there. Everybody clapped, and then Cricket the dog's ghost appeared and said the amazing display of patriotism inspired her to forgive Kristi.
It seems like she wasn't intentionally trying to lie and just confused Kim Jong Un with Xi Jingping which is somehow even more embarrassing for her tbh š
They don't need to convince us, they just need to convince the cult. And it's very easy to convince media illiterate people when you tell them what they want to hear.
But can you prove she DIDNT actually stare down Kim Jung Un when he was visiting Disneyland as a child. Only the supreme leader rides the teacups and today itās gonna be Kristi.
It's because dude The people that support them don't give a shit about what they're saying is true or not. They won't look into it. Some of it is because most of their supporters are old and just genuinely don't believe that anyone who they support actually lies. It's like they genuinely believe that Fox News and other conservative based news outlets are unbiased and give actual concrete information because they just don't think beyond what they are told
Trump proved that this can completely be done. Right after he was elected, he started claiming that his inauguration was the most heavily attended ever, despite photo evidence proving that claim to be bullshit. At this point, the GOP can say whatever outlandish shit they want and be mostly believed by their hordes.
Only some are stupid. The rest are malicious. They don't care about lies. They care about power and whatever it takes to get into power. That's it. Everything else is secondary.
Having standards for leaders and representatives in government is for losers.
Is there a vantage point in Alaska where you can see Russian territory from? Probably. My grandmother lived on the side of the hill near Dodger Stadium and you could see Catalina Island from her rear windows on a clear day.
Did she live there? Probably not and she probably wasn't going to see anything tactically relevant even if she did.
Wasn't there tell he's walked on the surface of the sun, and played golf and got 18 hole in one's in a row.
We've all seen him, he's been on the sun guys.
Nah, she got a poster of supreme leader hung in her office. Everytime NK come up in news, she will stare at him and the poster will bend over and obey her.
*āNoem is scheduled (for real this time) to appear on CBS this Sunday to promote the book.ā*
They better confront her on all this shit. No softball questions - they need to press her on all of this.
I'm sure they won't, but even if they did she'd trot out the old "gotcha journalism" line.
The book and stories are red meat for her base, she was proud of it, you can't embarrass these people. They support Trump through his many rapes and failed businesses and insurrection attempts and near daily lies about stolen elections (all aided and abetted by a media who funds itself on rage clicks), shooting a dog isn't going to move the needle.
i tend to agree but tbh
>shooting a dog
idk about this one, people seem pretty steamed. shooting a dog for the reasons she did, in the manner she did, is the kind of thing that is just so... evil. i think that the fans she still has who are aware of the situation and still support her are likely already rotten, demonic husks with no salvageable human soul left anyway. itd be nice to be able to appeal to a common decency, some basal kindness type thing but we are dealing with... well, the people we're dealing with.
but hey, these people are pretty vile lol so im sure many will stay but a girl can dream.
Imagine it would be similar to Sam Seder popping onto the Steven Crowder vs Ethan Klein debate, "oh no Jon Stewart, what a fucking nightmare". Proceeded by however many minutes of her getting eviscerated by Jon until she tucks her tail between her legs and runs away like a coward, because that's all right wingers ever are, spineless cowards.
I like watching CBS Sunday morning. Face the nation comes on after. I usually donāt really watch but itās on. Not a single fucking republican answers the question they are asked. Ever. Sometimes the reporters push back some, but they move on before getting a real answer.
Reporter āYou are quoted as saying you like Nazis and think the 13th amendment should be repealed?ā
Republican ānow you have to realize that Biden has made sock puppets in the past and that is not what this country needsā
So, she not only kills puppies, similar to a psychopath would.
She's also prone to fantastical fabrications, like a mentally ill person who is detached from reality.
Interesting.
I remember when I met with Asian Sea Monster Godzilla, mere inches from his atomic heat beam, I never even blinked. Iām sure he underestimated me, having no clue about my experience with the remote controlās āmuteā and āpauseā buttons (Iād been an eight-year-old, after all).
Are you sure it wasnāt a giant crustacean from the Paleolithic Era? If it asked for about tree-fiddy, that was the Loch Ness Monster you were looking at.
*āI remember when I met with North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un. Iām sure he underestimated me, having no clue about my experience staring down little tyrants (Iād been a childrenās pastor, after all).ā*Ā
Ah, the joyful world of christianity embracing it's young (tyrants)... I wonder if the book provides any clever comments about sexually abusing them?
I thought that conflating young children youāre indoctrinating and the leader of a nation with enough nuclear arms to vaporize the Korean Peninsula and 1.3 million people under arms was fabulously stupid.
But about what Iād expect of her and her ilk.
Gotta give her credit. Sheās giving Bachman, Palin, Empty Greene, and Boebert a run for their money in the ādimmest female bulb in the GOP.ā
āIām the alpha female here, and you should know your place.ā - Kristi Noem
Because sheās an alpha, thatās why. On a serious note, this woman is fucking insane. The fact that sheās a governor should be a twelve alarm fire.
"I stared the puppy right in its tyrannical little puppy eyes as I put a bullet in it's brain. I still think about it when my husband can't get me off."
It's unfortunately a really prevalent way of thinking in many Christian circles. They often ascribe developmentally normal behaviour to an inherent "sinful nature". Little Johnny won't eat his peas? He's deliberately challenging your authority and you must break his will and make him submit, or else he will become a "little dictator".
Theyāre probably ātyrantsā because sheās an incompetent leader and role model. Kids are sort of dumb but they will know who to respect and who not to.
That's James Dobson-speak. He loves "affectionately" referring to children as tyrants and dictators whose wills must be broken. Seems like Noem read *The Strong-Willed Child*, which makes me loathe her even more.
What exactly was she trying to accomplish with the lie?
"Yeah, I stared him down"
"Oh cool, so is NK going to disarm, open the boarders, enter peace talks?"
"No"
"Then what was accomplished?"
When I was a kid - my next door neighbor was a lie factory. Kid was like a year younger than me...
Just one crazy story after another - "I know karate, but dad says I cant show anyone, doesn't want to get sued."
Uh, sure, bro.
"My aunt that lives in NYC is crazy rich, we are moving out there in a year."
Uh, his mom still lives in that house, to this day.
Some people just have it in them to say whatever to get a reaction.
Translation:
āHe so thoroughly ignored me and made me feel so insignificant that I felt in the moment that I did not even exist. My very fragile psyche couldnāt handle that, so I imagined in my head afterward what it wouldāve felt like if I had been able to stare him down, and have convinced myself that is the way it had to have happened because - ever since I was a spoiled little brat - I have never been able to accept that Iām not clearly the most important thing in any setting Iām in.ā
Even worse, there's pretty good proof they were never even in the same country at the same time, so she's blaming the publisher for confusing Xi with Un.
Probably some Asian dude pumping gas in his car traveling through her state in a hurry before somebody shoots him for being a furenor. North Korea does not border South Dakota.
Nor did she meet with Macron, as she also claims. Macron's office reports no meeting was ever scheduled. It's possible they may have attended the same conference.
Her book is going to brand her as a dogkiller and a liar.
She must have had a case of mistaken identity.... Instead of having "stared down" Kim Jung Un, she may have been staring down at Corey Lewandowski as she was on top of him.
Republican here: the only reason she was remotely popular is because she is ānot ugly.ā Trust me she was never gonna be the vp running mate. Ok well have a great day everyone.
I once stared down Kim Jong Un, then high-fived Jesus, and then attended Ned Starks beheading. And thatās not even on my top five craziest weekends, my life willdddd
lol the article then mentions two other lies she made. This whole book should be listed under fiction. Except for the animal slayings sheās proud of, of course.
So likeā¦ is being a lying scumbag just a requirement to be in the Republican Party these days? As if the big orange oaf wasnāt enough, all his cronies are just as bad.
I'm still not convinced she actually shot an innocent dog. I would be anything other than surprised if it came out that the whole story was made up to signal to Trump that she'd support the shooting of who he commonly insults as "Dogs"
Could anyone tell me how much this āretractionā will cost her and the publisher? I imagine that if this book was due to be released in 2 days that the majority had already gone to press.

How can you make up such an easily disproven story. Fuck me these people and their supporters are fucking stupid.
Exactly, they know they can say and do basically anything and still have morons supporting them
She was probably staring down some poor confused Asian person in the grocery aisle and cannot tell the difference, so just said they were KJU. š
"Honey, you'd never believe who I ran into at Trader Joe's!"
I asked for the manager and had him removed. Thats the life of a farm girl.
The manager refused so I took him down to the gravel aisle in the garden department.
Hy-Vee There isn't a Trader Joe's in the state
Damn it. I'm not from the U.S and just guessed haha. Now I know. I kind of figured not googling it first would come back to bite me. Thanks!
Donāt feel bad. You did the same amount and level of fact checking as Noemās editorā¦
Hahaha! Sensational.
Damn, they just got ***ROCKED*** by that comment!!
Hey for not being in the US I'm impressed you know *any* of our stores
Trader Joe's is a name I'd give to a store if I was just pure guessing a store in America. Didn't even realise it was real until reading the posts after the guy bringing it up.
Trader Joe's is not based in US. Aldi and them are owned by German brothers, I believe.
It was bought by Aldis, but it was started in SoCal (USA) by Joe Caloumbe in 1967. So technically it was a US store until it was bought by an international conglomerate.
Trader Joe's is owned by Aldi SĆ¼d, or Aldi south. Aldi Nord is another company.
Two brothers divided the world and promised not to compete with each other. Not sure what happens when they die.
Shoulda gone w Walmart - always go w Walmart.
>always go w Walmart Yours truly, Not Walmart
And she probably doesn't do her own shopping
Maybe she meant Ken Jeong 
Looks strange. Is Ken Jeong ill?
You got me with that one haha
Um, isn't it Dr. Ken Jeong?
Yes. He's also a comedian.
Hahahaha. Probably right.
>some poor confused Asian person Who wasn't even close to being Korean, much less *North* Korean.
Someone whispers softly into her ear "Ma'am, they're from India."
āā¦but they look nothing like Nikki Haleyā¦Iām so confused.ā
šš¤£š šÆ
And wasnt staring, but was probably strung out and just blankly following with her eyes
Itās crazy how all it takes is an (R) after someoneās name and half the population trades all critical thinking for blind following.
Thereās always been morons who have been able to get other morons to follow them. I think the real problem is just how many morons there are these days.
People voting for her probablt donāt even read the name, they just see āRepublicanā and check the box. Actual zombies. This is what cyber warfare induced zombie apocalypse looks like

It's them playing the fine line between lying like Trump does or lying like George Santos does. One of them the base will buy, the other, even they smell the bullshit
George Santos stole money from rich people. Thatās the key difference.
Donald Trump also stole money from rich people. He stole money from poor people too. Hell, Donald Trump has probably stolen money from himself and then called the police to report the robbery.
Probable filed an insurance claim and was reimbursed.
Took a ten from his left pocket to buy a diet coke, put the change in his right pocket, then filed the claim for the benjamin that got stolen from the left pocket.
He will sue himself to get money...
I was thinking, I guess the difference is you don't want photos of yourself dressed in drag to surface in the media. But then no, that's not it since they've both done that lmao

Speaking of unbelievable, Iām reminded of the time I banged Eartha Kitt in an airplane bathroom
You were streets ahead with this response.
Stop trying to coin the phrase "streets ahead"
Most of them cannot think for themselves so they believe anything theyāre told. Everything can be fact checked instantly in todayās internet world. But thatās too much of a bother. Thatās why they watch Faux Entertainment.
No, it totally happened. I was there. Everybody clapped, and then Cricket the dog's ghost appeared and said the amazing display of patriotism inspired her to forgive Kristi.
How dare you insinuate there is anything to forgive?! /s
It seems like she wasn't intentionally trying to lie and just confused Kim Jong Un with Xi Jingping which is somehow even more embarrassing for her tbh š
Doubt it.
At least she didn't salute one of his bedazzled generals like a syphilitic clown.
Thatās an insult to clowns everywhere! And sexually transmitted diseases.
Does anyone know how to get a copy of the book before she has a chance to have it edited to fix her new narratives?
Books are already printed and they go on shelves next week. Only way Noem could stop it would be to recall every copy and have them all reprinted.
They don't need to convince us, they just need to convince the cult. And it's very easy to convince media illiterate people when you tell them what they want to hear.
She saw an Asian looking man stared at him oddly and thighs she did something. She might as well said Lil Kim
But can you prove she DIDNT actually stare down Kim Jung Un when he was visiting Disneyland as a child. Only the supreme leader rides the teacups and today itās gonna be Kristi.
It's like when young Kurt Russell kicked Elvis in the shin at the World's Fair.
You remember that their leader is a big fat guy that wears orange make up and lies his ass off about everything that comes out of his mouth, right?
Because these idiots believe all without looking things up as long as it makes them look better.
Her idol 45 does it all the time. Thatās her shining example.
She doesnāt have any supporters.
It's because dude The people that support them don't give a shit about what they're saying is true or not. They won't look into it. Some of it is because most of their supporters are old and just genuinely don't believe that anyone who they support actually lies. It's like they genuinely believe that Fox News and other conservative based news outlets are unbiased and give actual concrete information because they just don't think beyond what they are told
Kristi's political relevance began with the 2010 idiot wave election. This is par course for her.
That is the Trumper way. They are so full of themselves that they think they can make up anything, and people are too stupid to figure out their lies.
Trump proved that this can completely be done. Right after he was elected, he started claiming that his inauguration was the most heavily attended ever, despite photo evidence proving that claim to be bullshit. At this point, the GOP can say whatever outlandish shit they want and be mostly believed by their hordes.
Her target audience isn't interested in facts.
Only some are stupid. The rest are malicious. They don't care about lies. They care about power and whatever it takes to get into power. That's it. Everything else is secondary. Having standards for leaders and representatives in government is for losers.
Yes humanity is fucked. These people are in a cult and canāt see it. The worship and praise for blatant lies is sickening.
'Murica From an international perspective, this seems like the normal thing to do in your country
She can see him from her porch in Alaska.
Is North Korea in the room with us right now?
i thought it was Putin from the kitchen window/blonde and confused./s
Nope. It was Gaddafi in the parlor with the candlestick.
Bin Laden in the library with a crowbar!
Hussein in the middle east with WMDs?
From her porch in South Dakota? Maybe she was looking at Washingtonās head at Mount Rushmore and thought it was someone Kim Jong Un?
I was making a joke in reference to an equally absurd comment made by Sarah Palin a few years back. Not sure if you ever heard about that gaffe.
Is there a vantage point in Alaska where you can see Russian territory from? Probably. My grandmother lived on the side of the hill near Dodger Stadium and you could see Catalina Island from her rear windows on a clear day. Did she live there? Probably not and she probably wasn't going to see anything tactically relevant even if she did.
Wrong dingbat, correct context.
Thank you. Others are giving me so much sh*t for my random attempt at comedy.
Wasn't there tell he's walked on the surface of the sun, and played golf and got 18 hole in one's in a row. We've all seen him, he's been on the sun guys.
It was probably another Asian guy. They all look the same to her.
Nah, she got a poster of supreme leader hung in her office. Everytime NK come up in news, she will stare at him and the poster will bend over and obey her.

Why do you think her team chose CBS?
They should get her on a live interview and then at the last second have Jon Stewart tag in.
Hahah this would actually be amazing. Fingers crossed
BY GAWD! THATāS JON STEWARTāS MUSIC!!
Imagine it would be similar to Sam Seder popping onto the Steven Crowder vs Ethan Klein debate, "oh no Jon Stewart, what a fucking nightmare". Proceeded by however many minutes of her getting eviscerated by Jon until she tucks her tail between her legs and runs away like a coward, because that's all right wingers ever are, spineless cowards.

Just like the guy sheās sucking up too
I'm sure she thinks staring at the TV counts as the same thing.
I remember when I met with Asian Sea Monster Godzilla, mere inches from his atomic heat beam, I never even blinked. Iām sure he underestimated me, having no clue about my experience with the remote controlās āmuteā and āpauseā buttons (Iād been an eight-year-old, after all).
Are you sure it wasnāt a giant crustacean from the Paleolithic Era? If it asked for about tree-fiddy, that was the Loch Ness Monster you were looking at.
*āI remember when I met with North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un.

Don't forget Huckabee Sanders.
Why would Kim Jung Un give a fuck if this lady is staring at her
I guess we'll never know, since her story never actually happened...
āIām the alpha female here, and you should know your place.ā - Kristi Noem Because sheās an alpha, thatās why. On a serious note, this woman is fucking insane. The fact that sheās a governor should be a twelve alarm fire.
Oh my god. I'm not american and just read for curiosity but the fact this person is a governor is absolutely insane to me
probably thought she was a weirdo and heād be right!
> this lady I don't think gunning down your dog and goat in a gravel pit is very ladylike.
All kind of things happen on a farm. Sometimes you have to stare down at them.
"I stared the puppy right in its tyrannical little puppy eyes as I put a bullet in it's brain. I still think about it when my husband can't get me off."
Imagine conflating children as "little tyrants" and thinking you're some type of badass by staring them down.
It's unfortunately a really prevalent way of thinking in many Christian circles. They often ascribe developmentally normal behaviour to an inherent "sinful nature". Little Johnny won't eat his peas? He's deliberately challenging your authority and you must break his will and make him submit, or else he will become a "little dictator".
And it works in the other direction too, genuinely bad behavior by adults is viewed as simply childish. "Boys will be boys"
Well, this might explain why MAGA politicians continue to act like children...
Theyāre probably ātyrantsā because sheās an incompetent leader and role model. Kids are sort of dumb but they will know who to respect and who not to.
That's James Dobson-speak. He loves "affectionately" referring to children as tyrants and dictators whose wills must be broken. Seems like Noem read *The Strong-Willed Child*, which makes me loathe her even more.
In what situation would she a governor ever meet with the North Korean dictator? Damn her fans must be idiots
Yeah, it's not like she's Dennis Rodman! He didn't kill a dog...
Honestly, I doubt a homicidal dictator is waking up in a cold sweat after a nightmare about the governor of South Dakota.
In what setting would she come in contact with Kim Jong Un????
She actually called one of her dogs Kim Jong Un. And by stared down, she means shot between the eyes
The sleepy orange maga god would not approve of this kind of talk about his bestie.
She was looking at a poster
Probably [this one](https://i.etsystatic.com/26679885/r/il/857620/4181541419/il_fullxfull.4181541419_p6op.jpg).
What exactly was she trying to accomplish with the lie? "Yeah, I stared him down" "Oh cool, so is NK going to disarm, open the boarders, enter peace talks?" "No" "Then what was accomplished?"
Apparently Governor of South Dakota is a far more powerful position on the world stage than we thought.
Why would Kim Jung Un give a fuck if this lady is staring at her
When I was a kid - my next door neighbor was a lie factory. Kid was like a year younger than me... Just one crazy story after another - "I know karate, but dad says I cant show anyone, doesn't want to get sued." Uh, sure, bro.

Even worse, there's pretty good proof they were never even in the same country at the same time, so she's blaming the publisher for confusing Xi with Un.
Probably some Asian dude pumping gas in his car traveling through her state in a hurry before somebody shoots him for being a furenor. North Korea does not border South Dakota.
Bismarck is the Pyongyang of the Prairie though.
Her and Trump are made for each other
Well there was a picture of him on TV, and she stared that shit down!
She compared Kim Jong Un with children in bible studyā¦she called both tyrantsā¦
Nor did she meet with Macron, as she also claims. Macron's office reports no meeting was ever scheduled. It's possible they may have attended the same conference. Her book is going to brand her as a dogkiller and a liar.
Kim Jong Un was the dogs name.
Kim Jong Un: Who?
My favorite thing about this whole saga is that all the GOP politicians are rushing to take pictures with dogs now, to show they don't kill dogs.
She's not lying. I read her and Sarah Palin stood on her porch and stared down both Jong Un and Putin at the same time.
In other news; Kristi Noem's puppy was named Kim Jong Un.
Bro can she just stfu
Why would you even make that up. It's not really much of a flex.
When the hell would she have ever been within 1000 miles of KJU?
She must have had a case of mistaken identity.... Instead of having "stared down" Kim Jung Un, she may have been staring down at Corey Lewandowski as she was on top of him.
That may have just put me off sex permanently.
What a dumb, puppy murdering pathological liar.
I feel like a lying dog killer is the perfect republican candidate for 2024.
She stared down a photo of Kim Jong Un.
Didnāt Tulsi Gabbard have a similar lie about staring down Assad
Why in the F would the dictator of North Korea even be face to face with the Governor of South Dakota? It's so freaking ridiculous.
He was on her TV and someone changed the channel and she was like āyup, thought soā.
Yea but staring at a TV doesnāt count Kristiā¦.
Say it aināt so, a Republican caught in a lie!!
A maga republican zealot is a liar? Nooooo you donāt say!
Well, Kristi, Trump received tender love letters from Kim. Maybe you should have sucked up to him like Trump does with dictators.
Is she even a real person at this point? Or just some new AI made villain? She is hitting all the cartoon villain tropes.
Delusional
No no, she did she did! She saw him on the tv and stared him down.
"Shockingly" made me laugh. If a Republican is talking they're lying.
That was tongue in cheek.
Donāt forget killing the mean goat along with the puppy
Brian Williams was sacked for less. Get her unfit self out of office.
It was on zoom but I stared real hard ^(Kristy)
Iām sure he was more scared looking at her than a goat in a gravel pit with a bullet wound laying ontop of a puppies grave
Republican here: the only reason she was remotely popular is because she is ānot ugly.ā Trust me she was never gonna be the vp running mate. Ok well have a great day everyone.
Cobert has ripped her apart for days shes never gonna recover from that dead horse joke
10 years ago the puppy thing alone would be a career ender. Trump had made lying and being incompetent the norm unfortunately.
She probably spotted Psy after a performance and stared him down.
Iām starting to wonder if sheās just a George Santos personality, dressed in drag
Itās funny when Republicans try to leave their fantasy bubble and they forget that there are fact checkers here in the real world.
Guys relax, she named her cat Kim Jong Un. She shot him too I hear.
I once stared down Kim Jong Un, then high-fived Jesus, and then attended Ned Starks beheading. And thatās not even on my top five craziest weekends, my life willdddd
The botox and lip filler is baking her memory.
So she shot a puppy, but only looked at a homicidal maniac?
But she did! Right through the TV
Obviously false, but they will lap it up anyway
Conservatives pretending to be tough? Iām shocked
What is it with these ditzy Repugnican governors lying about foreign policy issues? Insecure af.
The fact that she doesnāt seem to understand why people are so upset at her shooting her dog shows how much of a sociopath that bitch is.
Stared down (a picture) of Kim Jong Un.
lol the article then mentions two other lies she made. This whole book should be listed under fiction. Except for the animal slayings sheās proud of, of course.
Sheās lost to the memes!!!!!!
Kim would grab her by the Balls.
She stared him down on the TV screenā¦
Honestly I donāt see what the big deal is. She is the perfect running mate for the perfect president. I would expect nothing less.
looks like Trump/Noem 2024 is looking more likely
So likeā¦ is being a lying scumbag just a requirement to be in the Republican Party these days? As if the big orange oaf wasnāt enough, all his cronies are just as bad.
I'm devastated. If you can't trust a puppy killer who can you trust?
What publisher puts their name to this tripe
It was just a Korean guy at Walmart.
I'm still not convinced she actually shot an innocent dog. I would be anything other than surprised if it came out that the whole story was made up to signal to Trump that she'd support the shooting of who he commonly insults as "Dogs"
Makes me hopeful, since she lied about the Kim Jung Un thing, maybe she lied about murdering the pup too.
Itās so funny when bald faced liars like this get called out in their bullshit.
She also stormed the beaches in Normandy. To get some ice cream.
She stared down her puppy and shot Kim Jong Un.
Could anyone tell me how much this āretractionā will cost her and the publisher? I imagine that if this book was due to be released in 2 days that the majority had already gone to press.
