Kristi Noem is retreating back to South Dakota…
The Republican governor appears to have canceled her tour promoting her new memoir as both Fox News and CNN hosts revealed Noem canceled her scheduled interview at the last minute.
CNN's Dana Bash announced on Wednesday during Inside Politics that she'd planned on having the governor on, but Noem's team canceled at the last minute.
“Governor Noem was scheduled to be on this program, Inside Politics, today,” Bash said on Wednesday. “Her team reached out to us weeks ago to book her here and we reconfirmed this week. She abruptly canceled last night. We want to say that, governor, you are of course welcome on the program anytime.”
Fox News host Greg Gutfeld found himself in a similar position this week.
On Gutfeld! on Tuesday, the host told his audience that Noem canceled at the last minute due to the “weather.”
“I don't believe it. I just think it's a little late to keep her on a short leash. I hoped she'd reconsider, but I'm not going to sit up and beg,” Gutfeld said.
The Republican Governor who was reportedly among Donald Trump‘s contenders for vice president had caught criticism from both sides of the aisle over the content of her book.
In the memoir, Noem describes killing her 14-month-old hunting dog as well as an alleged encounter with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un.
