A rising Republican star tipped by many to be Donald Trump's running mate should he win the presidential nomination has been involved in a clandestine affair for years, multiple sources tell DailyMail.com.
Married South Dakota governor Kristi Noem, 51 – who stresses her belief in 'family values' – and Trump advisor Corey Lewandowski, who is also married, began carrying on in 2019, if not before.
Now news of the relationship threatens to wreck Noem's chances of joining Trump's ticket in a potential rematch with President Joe Biden.

Just watched the YouTube vid of Nancy Pelousy describe the ''wraparound smear"" technique.

So if you don't deny rumors, it makes them true? After a while, one gets sick and tired of the bs and refuses to acknowledge attacks. The haters are going to hate.

Don't ever say "... getting back to work." That's comes straight from the B.J. Clinton playbook.
The other thing that comes out of the Clinton playbook is strategic fabrications. Show me photos of amorous contact or it didn't happen.

Doubt it's true but if it is she should just switch parties. This would be a huge resume enhancer as a democrat

Politics is and always has been about who has got the dirt on whom. A politician who knows another's secrets can cause personal damage beyond repair. Politicians spend huge amounts of money collecting their oppositions' personal data for intimidation purposes. Politicians who somehow think they are immune to these unspoken blackmail threats are just plain stupid.

FTA: "But a DailyMail.com investigation has uncovered extensive evidence of the couple's romantic relationship: Dozens of trips that mixed business with pleasure, flights on donors' private planes, and stays at luxury resorts where their intimacy was observed and noted. ... Former Trump operative Charles Johnson wrote in a Substack post that he had seen them acting 'in a very flirtatious manner' at the August 2020 meeting of the Republican Attorneys General Association (RAGA) at The Cloister resort on Sea Island, Georgia."
While it would not be proof in the case of a non Trump supporter, in Billy Bob Clitton's Rules of Evidence Applicable to Political Enemies, it's a slam dunk conviction. And of course, if you're a Dim porn star, a Republican adducing evidence is proof that Republicans are guilty.

Didn't hear any thing about this until Gov. Noem's name was floated as a Trump running mate. I'll wait for further information.

And so the mud flies. Did the same people invent this that invented the Trump dossier?
Besides, even if true, I wouldn't turn her down. She's hot.

Gov Noem saw this coming. She mentioned how she and her family would be attacked because of her endorsing #45 and standing solidly behind him. Ignore the noise.

Consider the source. Smear away. I don’t care who they love as long as they love our country. At least they are different sexes and they know the difference.

LSM would have never even mentioned this if they were both of the same gender.
If even true I think the only people that should care are the families/spouses.

Corey Lewandowski had an affair with Hope Hicks and didn't his time in the WH end after that was exposed? Gosh what do otherwise smart, elegant ladies see in a jerk like him?

I stopped reading right there.

There is enough in the story that I won't reject the idea that they are having an affair out of hand, but there is not enough there to convince me that they are having an affair. This is a story that we should not take at face value today, but we should "put a pin in" it to watch for any information which confirms or debunks it.

While I have no use for Mike Pence, he's smart to avoid situations where he could be accused of having an affair. Affairs are never secret - it doesn't take much to make someone suspicious, and before you know it, they've figured out what is going on.
Having said that, if the DM is right, both are stupid to think they could get away with it - particularly Noem.

Correct me if I am wrong, but didn't Trump cut Lewandowski loose a while back? Guess we know why now. He couldn't keep his pants on. The headline is misleading if true. It should read' former advisor'.

None of this, true or not, has any impact on my opinion of Kristi Noem or Corey Lewandowski, both of whom are great people. I am not joining any effort to ruin fellow Republicans. Defeat them at the ballot box in a free and fair election, where there is no cheating.

This rumor blew up two or three years ago. The result was that Lewandowski, who had been working for Noem and was still part of Trump's inner circle, was "fired" but later, and quite surreptitiously, was hired back. It was considered to be common knowledge by the Trump camp. This was written about at at least three conservative websites. Kirsti is very thirsty and really, really, really wants to be POTUS.

I feel just like #28. If this is true, it will be proven. Until then, DM needs to go back to puff pieces about Kate’s “recycled” wardrobe.

#29~ Correct, the “rumor” surfaced in 2021 and was denied by Kristi Noem as “total garbage”. Considering the speculation about her possibly being considered by President Trump as his choice for Vice President, it is possible the “rumor” has resurfaced for the purpose of dirty politics. However, “connecting dots” serves well when confronted with a variety of issues surrounding a serious matter before making decisions. For that purpose, “bits and pieces” about Kristi Noem are being posted to look toward a safe, sound, rationale perspective on behalf of President Trump’s choice and the future of this country.
~~ “KRISTI NOEM RUNNING THE MIKE PENCE PLAY TO HELP LEFTISTS CONTROL THE CULTURE” (Noem Has a History of Pro-Trans Policy) – “It appears Gov. Kristi Noem is hoping to use the goodwill she earned through her COVID courage to hide her cowardly and deceptive choices about transgender politics.”

Joy Pullmann – The Federalist – March 24, 2021
“It seems pertinent to note that Noem has not been a reliable ally of vulnerable women threatened by transgender politics. On July 13, 2020, the Noem administration okayed placing male prisoners in women’s prisons if the male claimed to be female. Signed by Noem’s secretary of corrections, a state cabinet member, the policy states: (Snip)”
~~ “THE WORST THING ABOUT KRISTI NOEM’S SPORTS CAPITULATION IS HER LIES” (While Gov. Kristi Noem understandably prefers to avoid facing the economic brunt of a showdown with the NCAA, if she led, others would follow. That is what conservatives want.)

Margot Cleveland – March 26, 2021
“South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem raised some valid concerns when she returned House Bill 1217 to the state legislature for “style and form” changes. But two of the proposed amendments to the bill that legislators drafted to prevent males from competing as females in athletic events, coupled with the spin since Noem announced she would not sign H.B. 1217 as written, give the governor’s game away: She caved. ... JUST TELL THE TRUTH, KRISTI NOEM: If so, it would be understandable, but at least be honest.”

Perhaps the wisdom of Benjamin Franklin would be appropriate: “When in doubt, don’t.”

Timing is everything. Don't believe a word of it.
Find the "multiple sources" and sue them for slander.
By the way, I heard that Joe and Jill aren't exactly clean in this area. Does that make it true?
