Senator Thune is undeniably rewriting our future; however, we must ask: for whom? Is this transformation genuinely for the good of all citizens, or merely a scheme to enrich his wealthy benefactors and billionaires? Health care costs, food prices, and everyday expenses have surged dramatically under MAGA leadership, raising serious concerns about who truly benefits from his policies.
His true constituents. But they aren’t South Dakota citizens.
So much whistling in the dark, so many carefully arranged deck chairs. Congress is a huge joke under the GOP.
Made yourself available to South Dakota’s residents how? By looking at us from the back of your tinted Escalade as you went from one fundraiser to the other? By making meaningful engagement at a scripted chamber of commerce luncheon? By stopping by to kiss the ring of T-Denny? By making an odd appearance at an early morning high school football practice? Exactly how is it that you, Majority Leader of the United States Senate, are engaged with South Dakota residents? Mike Rounds simply put us pictures of meeting with Jeff Broin at the U.S. Senator’s D.C. office as his way of showing he is engaged with us W-2 wage earners and kicked-in-the-nuts soybean and corn growers here in South Dakota. The way you engage with actual South Dakota residents….we might as well be North Koreans standing on the side of the road waving as the mighty Kim Jon Thune rides by in his motorcade.
