I figured she was just trying to get out in front of it, but it appears she is stupid enough to think that someone might find that story endearing.

She got out in front of it like it was a train.

I do not advocate for violence and would never celebrate somebody's tragedy. Having said that, if Kristi Noem literally jumped in front of a train I may decide to get an ice cream cake that day.

I have a pretty strong policy of not dancing on graves or wishing death on people. Sometimes it's a very hard principle to keep intact.

"I've never wished a man dead, but I have read some obituaries with great pleasure"

Wow, that sums up my sense of morality really well. I'll remember this turn of phrase.

I do not advocate for violence, but I will absolutely celebrate if someone dedicated to making the world worse and increasing suffering for the sake of their own enrichment is stopped from doing that and I don't discriminate based on the means of cessation.
