I'm not sure I understand the logic of her even telling this story. So like if she finds herself unable to "train" a disobedient state judiciary or something, is she saying that this is her plan B?
Right? “I failed to train my dog and it killed a chicken while we were hunting birds, so I had to murder it.”
Okay, sorry your dog killed a bird while you were trying to get it to kill a different type of bird? You either didn’t train it well enough or it made an innocent mistake… not a reason to kill it
She's as out of touch of being able to train her dog as she is to be a representative of the State. When we voted to legalize weed, she made a sheriff start a lawsuit to block it on a BS technicality. Used citizen tax dollars against the will of the people who pay them.
More directly, this boast is more of anger issues being attempted of changing the narritive to "go getter attitude." Don't know details of the book, but how this article cites it seems more they she lost her shit over a puppy (honestly being a puppy) killing a neighbor's chicken (not specified if dog was loose or chicken got out), and even that didn't satiate her anger, she went and killed a goat for doing goat things (fertile male who was territorial.)
Honestly, her willingness to be a piece of shit (for various things, feel free to read her wikipedia) is a garner for attention from the worst parts of the GOP to only advance herself, because that's all who she cares about.
It seems like a failure on multiple fronts. For the magabrained types, she was both unable to train a dog to hunt AND is apparently a bad shot and terrible at handling guns.
For the normal Americans, she just comes off like a psycho.
