Why kill the dog? It didn’t listen to her, embarrassed her, and she couldn’t have that. Why admit to it? People already knew about it; she thought she could get in front of the story by spinning it as “hard decisions had to be made” rather than “sociopath murders dog.”
I’ve heard two good explanations as to why she’d publicize such a story:
She botched a common Republican technique by choosing the wrong victim to villainize (full explanation here)
There are witnesses to the puppy murder (construction crew) so this is her way of getting ahead of the story before someone else tells it (AFAIK so far we’ve only heard her version; maybe reality is even worse)
But like, why? Also why admit to it? Is she just a moron or something? Is there a lore reason for this?
