Sen. Scott of South Carolina fits many of the boxes set by former Vice President Mike Pence, according to an anonymous senator.

“I think he’ll want to have someone who doesn’t overshadow him, who is loyal to him and who gives him something.”

“That’s why I think Tim Scott will be an attractive choice for him, because I think Tim is very loyal, very well-spoken and intelligent,” the senator said.

Meanwhile, one-time favorite South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem is all but out of the race following revelations that she shot and killed her 14-month-old dog Cricket.

Republicans remain in a fight to win Donald Trump’s vice presidential nomination, with Tim Scott and Doug Burgun rising through the ranks, but Kristi Noem’s efforts have literally hit the skids.

Several sources cited by The Hill agree with the consensus in Republican circles that his campaign may be doomed to failure.

“It just ended, too much drama,” said a Republican senator who knows Trump’s thinking on the matter.

Pundits and members of the Republican Party believe that North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum and Scott are impressing the former president.

Burgum, who like Scott ran unsuccessfully for president, continues to gain popularity in Trumpworld.

The senator who called Noem “too much drama” says Burgum can credibly be seen as a moderate on issues like abortion, as Democrats will try to oppose the GOP in November.

Burgum is also a billionaire, allowing him to self-finance his presidential campaign.

Kari Lake is also considered to be on a downward trend, as Trump dislikes her losing campaign for governor and her unlikely bid to replace Kyrsten Sinema in the Senate.

Some Republicans were willing to go on record as saying that the issue of shooting her dog was the cause of Noem’s death.

US Senators Marco Rubio, JD Vance; and Congresswoman Elise Stefanik attended an event at Mar-a-Lago this weekend with Scott that many saw as part of the vice president vetting process.

Scott remains the favorite on Poylmarket, which allows people to bet on the vice presidential race, followed by Vance, Rubio, Stefanik and Dr. Ben Carson.

Noem is currently in ninth place, tied at the same odds as independent presidential candidate and former Democrat Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Ron DeSantis, Mike Pompeo, Sarah Huckabee Sanders and Vivek Ramaswamy are also holding risky bets.

The controversy over Noem’s dog, which has irritated and angered even her fellow conservatives at her on social media, has forced Noem to do damage control.

In it, Noem writes about the dog she shot in the gravel pit on her family’s property, moments before her children returned from school.

The dog, Noem claimed, had an “aggressive personality” that could not be tamed, as evidenced by the fact that Cricket ruined a pheasant hunt by being “crazy with excitement, chasing all those birds and having fun.” life.’

Additionally, when the governor of South Dakota took Cricket to meet a local family, the dog began killing the family’s chickens like “a trained killer.”

According to an excerpt from a book obtained by the guardianCricket “grabbed one chicken at a time, crushed it to death in one bite, and then dropped it to attack another.”

Cricket was “the picture of pure joy.” Meanwhile the owner of the chickens was crying.

Noem said she wrote a check “for the price they asked for and helped them get rid of the bodies covering the crime scene.”

“I hated that dog,” Noem wrote, believing the 14-month-old dog was “untamable,” “dangerous to anyone he came into contact with” and “less than useless…as a hunting dog.”

So he decided to kill Cricket.

“At that time,” the governor wrote. “I realized I had to put her down.”

He shot Cricket in the family’s gravel pit.

The revelation has proven unpopular and damaging to his reputation across the board, as noted by Senator Bill Cassidy of Louisiana.

‘Bipartisan outrage! “I was surprised that for once there was not a blue America, there was not a red America, but there was an America,” Cassidy said.

‘That’s crazy. Why would you do that to a puppy? It’s just crazy,’ he said.
