South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem has cut ties with Corey Lewandowski, a day after angrily dismissing claims that she was having an affair with the former Trump adviser, who had also been advising Noem.
A spokesman for the governor, Ian Fury, told Politico: “Corey was always a volunteer, never paid a dime (campaign or official). He will not be advising the Governor in regard to the campaign or official office.” The statement, claiming Lewandowski had “always” been a “volunteer,” appeared to downplay the role he served in advising Noem.
On Tuesday, a conservative news outlet called American Greatness published a bombshell report alleging that “multiple” unidentified sources had confirmed Noem has been having a months long affair with Lewandowski, who was former President Donald Trump’s first campaign manager.
The tweet came after Lewandowski was accused of groping Trump donor Trashelle Odom.
Charles Herbster, a Republican candidate for governor in Nebraska, also dumped Lewandowski, but will remain in Herbster’s prayers!
