SD Gov Lashes Out At Right Wing Host After He Claims She Only Has “Hype” Because She Is “Very Attractive”“No use for these Republicans who have made themselves useless. No use for Kristi Noem. Kristi Noem is a very attractive woman. So, she’s got that going for her. As far as I can tell that’s the only reason she was ever looked at as some sort of 2024 potential front runner.
“The hype and everything that she’s gotten from conservative media is entirely based on the fact that she’s an extremely attractive woman, which she is. But, you know, you put 50 pounds on her and another 20 years, I don’t think she gets any of the hype.
“Because outside of that, she’s just your standard, sort of, corporatist establishment Republican who’s not interested in doing anything.” – Daily Wire host Matt Walsh.

I said that Kristi Noem only gets hype because she's attractive. Lots of people, including Kristi, were offended by these remarks. I've had a chance to reflect on this and after much thought I just want to say I'm deeply sorry that you're all a bunch of ridiculous, whiney babies.

A Newsweek reporter contacted me to see whether I regret using “misogynistic language” about Kristi Noem. He said he wanted to give me a chance to “clarify” my comments for his article. Here was my response.
