Trump WASN'T PISSED at NOEM for LYING about Pretti OR his DEATH. He was pissed because she "made him look bad."

Trump privately fumed at the TV coverage of Department of Homeland Security Kristi Noem after the latest shooting involving a federal agent in Minneapolis, according to one CNN reporter.

Over the weekend, 37-year-old ICU nurse Alex Pretti was shot and killed by a swarm of immigration agents during a protest in Minneapolis. Pretti was the second U.S. citizen killed by federal officers following Trump's surge of officers in the city. The killings have sparked bipartisan scrutiny of the Trump administration's immigration regime and of Noem, who is facing calls to be impeached or fired.

CNN reporter Kristen Holmes revealed on "The Arena" on Tuesday that Trump was angry with Noem's public statements about Pretti's killing because they made the administration "look bad."

"Trump was agitated watching the coverage, specifically watching Secretary Noem and Bovino go up there and what he believed was they made the administration look bad," Holmes said. "Their talking points around the events that unfolded, the shooting of Alex Pretti, particularly noting that some of the things that they were saying just didn't match up with the video."

1. Of course not. He's a complete sociopath. The only real person is himself.

He has no empathy or concept of other people as "real".

The only truth is what pertains to him.

2. Theres a very strong connection between those two things

3. When will the MagaTs ask themselves this

If they will lie to me about this, what else are they lying to me about?

Their pea brains would explode.

5. I'd say they lack that level of self-awareness.

They sort of do that knee-jerk reaction into cries of "FAKE NEWS" if they hear anything upsetting about their messiah.

4. Yup. They are destroying his image of himself as the perfect...

something. Bovine is out (pretty quickly in my view), how soon for noem?
The other rule they broke: they pulled attention away from t. That is as bad as making him look bad.

6. Yes Bovino was getting a lot of attention on Twitter

They know it’s bad and they had to do SOMETHING so the Pocket Nazi got sent to a farm.

7. Funny I don't remember him having this problem on Jan 6th

They all lied about what was happening on TV back then too and it made him look bad.

8. This completely sums up not just this situation but his standard M. O.

He can’t be wrong. It’s unpossible.

Ross, who murdered Renee Good, in his position as an ICE agent is what 10-20 steps aways from the Presidency. That’s any Presidency. People screw up (granted that was a massive screw up) but you investigate and handle it. No one thinks Ross directly reflects on Trump….except Trump. He thinks Anything negative anything embarrassing is seen as a reflection on him because he’s absolutely CERTAIN everyone is absorbed with him as he is.

Really it’s COVID all over again. “It’s going away”. “It’ll be gone in a few weeks” etc. Then he went right into ITS NOT MY FAULT instead of leading and dealing with it.

Every President has a crisis, how they deal with it is how they are judged and remembered.

[surfered]

9. Yep! He expects his people to lie. It's a job requirement.

[senseandsensibility]

10. Of course.

I hope this doesn't shock anyone. And now I just read on bluesky that Noem is leaking to the media that she only did what Miller and trump told her to do. Everyone is throwing everyone under the bus and they all deserve it and more. I hope Dems stick to their guns and impeach her.

11. It's always been the only thing that matters. nt
