Noem misfires by boasting about killing her puppy South Dakota governor and Republican vice presidential contender Kristi Noem is all over the media promoting her forthcoming memoir, No Going Back.

Evangelicals forsaking Christianity for Trumpism Evangelical Christians made clear way back in 2015 that they were willing to sacrifice their faith, even abandon all common sense, to support Donald Trump.
