Kristi Noem Confirms She Is Not Being Vetted for Trump's VP

South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem has confirmed that she is not being formally vetted to be Donald Trump's vice-presidential pick for the 2024 election. Despite having conversations with Trump, Noem has not received any vetting paperwork. Trump's shortlist reportedly includes North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum, Ohio Senator JD Vance, and Florida Senator Marco Rubio, all of whom are men. Noem faced significant backlash after revealing in her memoir that she once shot her family's dog, which may have affected her chances. She emphasized that Trump should choose the best candidate to help him win, regardless of gender. Noem also declined to discuss disputed claims in her memoir, including a purported meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
