Gov. Kristi Noem makes Donald Trump's VP shortlist

SDPB

This interview originally aired on "In the Moment" on SDPB Radio.

Former President Donald Trump is considered by some to be a nontraditional candidate, so it’s no surprise that his shortlist of vice presidents has a few nontraditional picks.

But our Dakota Political Junkies say Gov. Kristi Noem’s name being on that list isn’t a surprise. We hear their insights and analysis.

Plus, we check in on how the governor's call to defend Texas is becoming a mission for South Dakota National Guard members.

David Wiltse, Ph.D., and Lisa Hager, Ph.D., are associate professors of political science at South Dakota State University.
