Jim Gaffigan mocks Gov. Kristi Noem for boasting about shooting her dog: “I just hope that Kristi Noem is doing okay."

Comic Jim Gaffigan on Monday mocked Gov. Kristi Noem (R-SD) for boasting about killing her dog Cricket for “aggressive behavior.”

“I just hope that Kristi Noem is doing okay,” Gaffigan said on “The View.” “Are there people in the country that are like, ‘You know what? She should have shot two dogs’?”

“There probably are. You're not wrong there,” said co-host Sara Haines.

The South Dakota governor came under fire last week after an excerpt was shared from her forthcoming memoir in which she described shooting and killing an “untrainable” family dog.

Noem claimed her 14-month-old puppy “Cricket,” had an “aggressive personality,” and described a hunting trip where the dog attacked a neighbor’s chickens and attempted to bite her.

Noem, a contender for Donald Trump's vice presidential running mate, said she included the gruesome story to demonstrate her readiness in politics to do what needs to be done, even if it's “difficult, messy and ugly.”
