Why is Noem wearing a bulletproof vest in a staff meeting?
Realistic assessment of the mood of people forced to be around her?
Honestly ya may not be far off, humans even profligates like those in Trumps orbit have a generally good enough ability to detect when folks are pissed at them. When said pissed folks have access to weapons, are more intelligent than you, and probably think what you are saying is beyond stupid then well wearing a comfort vest is probably the only thing keeping her from booking it out of the room.
It's a thing about the nervous systems of old world primates, like us, we're always making those assessments.
She's LARPing.
Which is why she's ordered the lie detectors. They only know what they see in the movies, and lie detectors are one of their favorite devices.
You ever seen the dictator warlords constantly wearing miliary gear with too much polish and a thousand made up medals?
That's why.
She’s a very serious person with very serious things going on! /s
She’s worried someone will put her down like she did her dog
and her 3 horses. she has a natural fear of gravel pits, or any dugout pits.
Funniest thing about that is they only help in an all-out fire fight to protect your vital bits except the head which would have a helmet. She’s not going into any situation nearly so dangerous and if someone wanted to take her out, specifically, there’s plenty of options.
She might as well have a mall ninja sword strapped to her back.
If we get nothing else from this shitshow, let it be this.
She wants to feel special
Cuz she’s a bitch and she expects what she did to that dog
maybe animals lovers might not like her.
