South Dakota Gov. Noem erroneously describes meeting with North Korea’s Kim Jong Un in new book

WASHINGTON (AP) — South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem described in a new book having met with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un during her time in Congress. But her office said Friday that the story of the meeting was an error as further scrutiny was put on the Republican governor’s life story.

... In her soon-to-be-released book, “No Going Back: The Truth on What’s Wrong with Politics and How We Move America Forward,” Noem describes instances where she has stood up to international leaders — anecdotes that would have bolstered her foreign policy experience — but those were called into question. She writes about meeting Kim Jong Un while she worked in Congress, and more recently, canceling a meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron.

Is that an Obama reference?

Oh no, the MSM is nitpicking Noem, better throw her off a bridge, quick! Always do what the MSM wants, always.

Sigh, she could have been a ‘contendah’....
But, she’s obviously got some Dorkbama and Pedo Joe blood (dogs and lying).

Is calling attention to a portion of a book incorrectly stating that she met with Kim Jung Un really being petty? Is it petty to bring up that Biden was not arrested at a civil rights march like he says he was? What’s the difference?

She’s an idiot picked for her gender, hair, and makeup.

Good riddance

Editor?

We only want candidates who go along to get along.

Nice of you to imply we're rooting for Jeb Bush and John Kasich.

You know I'm just joshing. No offense.

Nope. Think Gary Hart(pence). Monkey business. He really wasn’t into it. Did himself in.

Those on the left think it should be handed to the. Noem just might have thought that wearing a dress and being easy on the eyes was good enough.

Steve Martin wrote a satire in the New Yorker in which he advised Gabriel Garcia Marquez to boost his bestseller odds by paying for a good ghost writer like NBA star Dennis Rodman whose books far outsold the Nobel Prize winner’s. Also a disease in the title was a loser. Said living in a country where the weather is “dank” so often was also a depressing factor.

The left always shows us who they fear the most.

They obviously fear Noem.

I don’t think she is as smart as some think-if the awful dog story is true, she doesn’t even know that you can’t have a bird dog of any breed off-leash around chickens, since they are BIRDS-duh...

But that said, the rumors of her and Lewendowski having a pretty public affair is not supported by any photos, hotel reservations, etc-nothing but hearsay -and it was not even on the radar until she endorsed DJT for pres last year-I call BS...

It appears writing books, training animals, and meeting with foreign leaders are not her strengths.

She needs to slam the brakes on this book release, then wait a couple of years while seriously editing before re-release.

Just let this stuff blow over and stop digging the hole deeper.

“I remember when I met with the North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un,” she writes. “I’m sure he underestimated me, having no clue about my experience staring down little tyrants (I’d been a children’s pastor after all).”

A little full of herself. She stared at him? That scared a man who has executed relatives by way of hungry attack dogs and a ZSU-23-2 Anti-Aircraft gun? That must be some stare.

No, he died in a helo when Seth Rogan shot him from in that tank. Then SEAL team six extracted them.
