It’s always the ones who insist that marriage is “a special, God-given union between one man and one woman” that forget how to count.
The Daily Mail has published an explosive report that South Dakota governor Kristi Noem and Corey Lewandowski, a former Donald Trump aide, have been having a secret affair “for years”—at least since 2019. Noem’s spokesperson told the tabloid, “This is so predictable that you would attack Governor Noem less than a week after she endorsed Donald J. Trump as the 47th President of the United States.” Neither have denied the Daily Mail’s reporting, and Vanity Fair has reached out to both of them for further comment.
A “family values” Republican, Noem has three children with her husband, Bryon. They’ve been married for over 30 years. Lewandowski married his wife, Alison, in 2005, and they have four children.
Ordinarily you’d be right, but the fact that they are attacking the reporters instead of denying the report confirms it IMO. It’s been particularly common these last several years for a reporter to ask a conservative a question about a story, publish the denial, and then publish evidence showing that the story is true and the person lied about it (look no farther than BoBo getting kicked out of a theater this week).
