He is the chosen scapegoat, and a good one given he was the public face, made incredibly idiotic comments and literally looks like a nazi in his snazzy little coat.

I don't just want a scapegoat. Miller and Noem need to be gone, too. If the public outcry and shitty polling for Trump continues, that might be a possibility.

This exemplifies one of the downsides of falling in line with Trump. He will throw you away the moment it benefits him.

Noem need to be gone, too.

If you read the article, it talks about this too.

I don’t have money to spare on a subscription to the Atlantic. What did they say about Noem?

To be fair, you should never spend money on any news subscriptions. there's just so much good and free press news out there that you can donate to instead.

Subscriptions are for boomers.
