Kristi Noem slammed for pointing assault rifle at law enforcement officer

19. Kristi Noem's rise to Homeland Security secretary may have more to do with performance than anything else.

Kristi Noem has no experience or other qualifications for the position of Secretary of Homeland Security. What she has is the type of looks that trump likes and wants to see in ad and cosplay clips on TV. That is why Noem is always doing cosplay stunts like going to the El Salvador prison and holding guns. Trump wants Noem in ads

Take Noem. Soon after Trump said that he was considering her to be his running mate, Noem released an infomercial-style social media video debuting dental work. The new smile, one Republican strategist told the New York Times, was “all about her appeal to an audience of one.” Noem never got the VP role, and she was sued for “deceptive advertising practices.” That lawsuit was dismissed, and she denied being compensated for any advertisements. Still, Trump did appoint her to lead the Department of Homeland Security, despite the fact she had neither worked in the department nor had a background in law enforcement.

What Noem did seem to have was the face for the job. “I want you in the ads, and I want your face in the ads,” Noem recently recalled Trump saying, referring to a set of new taxpayer-funded ads celebrating the immigration crackdown. “I want you to thank me. I want you to thank me for closing the border.”

I hate the TV ad where Noem thanks trump for making the borders safe. That ad is on just before the weather on the local TV channels and changing channels does not always work to avoid this add. That ad was trump's idea

It’s very important to the Trump administration that the government spend huge taxpayer dollars on ads that repeatedly thank Donald Trump while warning immigrants to leave or stay out of America. .....

“Thank you, President Donald J. Trump, for securing our border, for deporting criminal illegal immigrants, and for putting America first,” Noem says in the domestic version of the ad. “President Trump has a clear message for those that are in our country illegally, leave now, if you don’t, we will find you and we will deport you.” She adds that “under President Trump, America’s borders are closed to law-breakers.”

The international version of the ad is very similar, and also thanks Trump. In that version, Noem says, “Under President Trump, we are defending American families and restoring their safety,” and adds, “President Trump is making America safe again.”

Noem is in this ad thanking trump because this is the role that trump cast for her. Kristi Noem perfectly encapsulates the Trump administration-All performative and theatrics, very little substance.

All of the "photo-ops" with Noem are staged for one reason. She fits the role that trump casted her for.

It does not matter is she points a gun at the other people in the photo op
