“Governor, if you had asked me a month ago who would be at the top of the list of potential candidates to run with Donald Trump, I would have told you your name. I don’t think you’re on the list.”
“Really? Why?” Nomu said.
“Yes, that’s right. And because of things that come up in this book, such as your claim that you met Kim Jong-un,” Finnerty said, adding that Noem “has been to the demilitarized zone.” he said before interjecting.
After reading a passage from Noem’s book about her meeting with the dictator, Finnerty asked, “Governor, that never happened, right?”

Finnerty responded, “But the anecdote shows that it happened, right?”

Noem reiterated that she would not discuss her “conversations with world leaders.”
When Noem refused to confirm whether the meeting took place, Finnerty said, “I still have to answer this question.”
Noem disagreed. “I don’t think so, because the average American is more concerned about the border,” she said, pivoting to criticizing President Joe Biden.
