Noem has been a big supporter of President Trump, she’s beautiful, articulate, and can make people believe once she opened her mouth and speak.
Because of her popularity, it made people think that she could be a possible Vice President or even a future presidential material.
However, every positive thing about her crashed after Noem, who positioned herself as a fighter for “women’s sports” caved to the NCAA’s transgender agenda.
After what she did it is now hard for her to get the impression that once she had.
She could have at least tried to admit that she was wrong for her to get back into people’s good graces for her, however; she didn’t go that route.
Noem even made matters worse for her after she did on Sunday at CPAC. For some odd reason, Kristi Noem thought that it’d be a good idea to attack America’s most beloved Governor, Ron DeSantis.
Here’s part of what she said: “Let’s talk about rewriting history. We’ve got Republican governors across this country pretending they didn’t shut down their states, that they didn’t close their beaches….”

Here’s an excerpt from the RedState report:
Let’s talk about the substance here, because I think it’s both misleading, and not necessarily wrong at the same time. Yes, Florida did close some beaches in COVID hotspots for a very short period. Still, that’s not the same as a full-blown, extended lockdown, and I think it’s a bit disingenuous to suggest that. Further, there’s a difference between doing something in April of 2020 and doing it in April of 2021. DeSantis was making decisions on the fly, with the data as it came in. There was a period where no one had any idea what COVID would be. It’s hard to fault any governor for doing something as minuscule as closing some beaches for a few weeks in the early days of the response.
In short, Noem isn’t wrong in saying that her state remained less locked down than even Florida. Still, it’s impossible to deny that DeSantis’ overall handling of COVID was excellent.
So, why do I think taking these shots is a mistake — even if she might have some semblance of a point? Because she’s punching up way too early. She’s also inviting criticism of her record on COVID, and that could be a much bigger problem for her in a general election.
Whether people would agree or not on how DeSantis handled COVID, Noem’s decision to go against DeSantis only made her look likes a dumb politician.
It is fine if she wants to show people her state’s success, but dragging another state down to highlight her triumph, is a different story, especially for the most popular Republicans, and all while she is on the downturn thanks to “waffling” and “caving” accusations – it’s just a really stupid move and I don’t think it will serve her well

Very few politicians mean what they say but always becomes evident after they are elected. To bad there is no truth meter that they have to beat. Sure cant take anyone politicians particular for their word. Then there are some really good ones, jim jordon, desantis, abbott, greene – pretty much anyone that McConnell tried to get rid of. Because mcconnell likes rinos and betrayers a lot.
