A French official said there is no record of a scheduled meeting with the South Dakota governor – nor had they invited her
The French government has joined the chorus of detractors taking aim at South Dakota governor Kristi Noem’s political autobiography No Going Back, which many now see as having eliminated her chances of being Donald Trump’s vice-presidential selection.
Days after Noem removed a passage claiming she had met with North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un, officials at the Élysée Palace in Paris are questioning a passage that describes a cancelled meeting with French president Emmanuel Macron.
At a minimum, we’ve already heard rumors that she was simply pissed off and embarrassed, and that people were way closer than they should have been to a person angrily wielding a firearm.
