Kristi Noem thanked Trump for preventing hurricanes, and we want to be there when she learns there isn’t a Nobel Prize for Sycophancy
Part-time puppy-killer, full-time Trump-licker and, astonishingly, the Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem has clearly had a shame bypass at some point during her 54 years.
It would take a complete lack of shame to go out cosplaying on ICE raids, to pretend that a man the Trump regime had illegally arrested had MS-13 tattooed across his knuckles, or to claim she’d had the girlfriend of the (non-existent) founder of Antifa arrested.
Yet even those pale into insignificance when compared to a comment she made to Donald Trump during a cabinet meeting on Tuesday.

I’m sorry …did a hurricane blow Washington DC to North Korea?
Even by Trump cabinet standards, that was some heavy-duty arse-kissing. We know they laughed, but even “jokes” can be sycophantic – and we’re not sure Dozy Don realises he didn’t prevent the hurricanes.
People had thoughts.

Hurricanes stayed away because thanks to Trump, there's already to much hot air blowing in America

Thank you, Oh Great One, for keeping the hurricanes away. The bowing and scraping hits new lows every day with these sycophants. https://t.co/lcSLvNPQVX
