I know I’m skating on thin ice talking about a female politicians looks, but is it just me, or does Kristi Noem look a lot like Melania Trump in that video? She looks very different in earlier pictures and videos and pictures that I’ve seen of her. I wonder if this is a conscious attempt to please Donald.

I don’t think he is still pleased enough by Melania to be impressed by another woman channeling her.

I’ll say. This is even worse than the time I went to a strip club with Milo Yiannopolis!

[The French government says Kristi Noem lied.](https://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/4659620-french-government-questions-noems-account-of-a-cancelled-meeting-with-macron-report/)

> “While in Paris, I was slated to meet with French president Emmanuel Macron,” she wrote in the book. “However, the day before we were to meet he made what I considered a very pro-Hamas and anti-Israel comment to the press. So, I decided to cancel.”
> 
> Macron’s office told NBC News that there is no record of Noem ever being scheduled to meet the president, nor had she ever been invited.

I’m not saying that it **would** work, I’m just wondering if she thought it might.

I don’t think the word “thought” means for her what it means for you.  
ETA: Replying to **Buck\_Godot** , as Discourse does not make that clear.

Suicide pact. Would you want to live if Kristie Noem was your owner?

Not just you. I saw a still photo of the two of them and I thought is was ol’ Melanoma herself.

I will point out a personal experience of just how a big a fuckup this was for Noem’s career. I gave a speech at the Republican state convention a few years back. In my speech I introduced my self and talked about my background, family, etc. You all know how political speeches go. At the last second I went a little off script and wanted to say my dog was named for Teddy Roosevelt (truth). As soon as I said, “I am also a dog owner …” the room full of MAGAs erupted in spontaneous applause. That was the best response to my speech.
