Trump Welcomes Kristi Noem Back Into Fold Post-Puppy Killing Scandal
It turns out killing your puppy—and admitting to it unprompted—isn’t total political suicide.
Kristi Noem will headline a town hall organized by Donald Trump’s team this weekend, marking her first notable appearance on the campaign trail since she detailed how she killed her 14-month-old wirehair pointer, Cricket.
Noem, 52, will travel to Savannah, Georgia, on Saturday to headline the policy event. It appears to be a fairly low-stakes campaign stop to welcome Noem back into the fold, taking place at 3 p.m. on a busy college football Saturday in the heart of the deep south. The free event will be at the Charles H. Morris Center, which has a seated capacity of 300 people.
