Kristi Noem's Jab About Kamala Harris Looking 'Crazy' Goes Left... And Woof

South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem (R) had many tongues wagging after her recent criticism of Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris .

During an appearance on Wednesdays episode of Prime News on Newsmax, Noem suggested that the vice president might look crazy in her new interview with CNN , which is set to air Thursday at 9 p.m. Eastern time.

Harris is appearing alongside her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, in the sit-down with CNN anchor Dana Bash. The pretaped conversation marks Harris first big interview as the Democratic presidential nominee.

Noem took issue with Walz joining Harris for the CNN discussion. She said it was disappointing since women regularly take on tough challenges by themselves.

We have a woman who wants to be the leader of the free world, and she cant get through an interview without being propped up by a man? she scoffed. Its insulting. It really is.

The Republican governor then leveled accusations about why she believes Walz had signed on to participate in the CNN sit-down with Harris.

I hope that everybody recognizes that Tim is there to help prop her up and, if it gets awkward or she starts giggling or looking ... crazy, that hes going to interrupt and take over, she said.

But some people on X, formerly Twitter, thought Noem had dug herself in a hole with her shot at Harris. 

Noem, who was a contender to be Donald Trump s vice presidential running mate this year, had received widespread backlash in the spring after it was revealed that shed written in her memoir about shooting and killing her 14-month-old dog  because it had behavioral issues and it killed a familys chickens. She also said in the book that she killed her familys goat  in the same way that she killed the dog.

The one who shoots her own dog is talking about looking crazy? What a hypocrite, one X user wrote  Wednesday.

Let me get this straight. Gov. Kristi Noem, who confessed to having killed her own dog, is accusing somebody else of being crazy, wrote another .

Noem had doubled down on the decision to kill her dog amid the initial wave of criticism, writing on social media in April that tough decisions like this happen all the time on a farm.
