The so-called “SD Grassroot Conservative” group which has fought against Republicans for a few elections now is chirping on facebook tonight about the 15 or so people who showed up yesterday at Justin McNeal’s announcement that he would be running against Senator Mike Rounds.
Whoof! That’s a lot of empty seats. Not sure why they didn’t have this at an area Pizza Ranch meeting room.
If you’ve forgotten (as the chief troll of the group, Julie Korth apparently has), President Trump has already endorsed incumbent Senator Mike Rounds as the Republican Nominee for the US Senate seat:
Which if you think about it makes Korth’s group and McNeal’s candidacy all part of an anti-Trump effort.
Considering McNeal failed in two prior attempts to get on the ballot.. this anti-Trump effort will likely be a very short anti-Trump effort.
It should be mentioned that these Facebook photos also show a certain state party chairman attending not only this event but also the Freedom Caucus fundraiser. As a member of the state central committee, it sure would be nice if effort was put into fundraising from the whole party and not just rubbing elbows with the fringe 10 percent. Get ready for the 2026 state convention, held in the park!
How can it be legal for him to have a political event in a national park?
The guy is weird. Apparently he moved here (from Hawaii?) in 2021 just to get into politics, because his grandparents lived here. Doesn’t want to run for school board or legislature. Wants to live in Washington DC, has credentials which could qualify him for a government job there. Why doesn’t he just do that instead?
Shows up everywhere here in a cowboy hat and boots.
He must think we’re all stupid or something.
Pat, I thought you told us that this political event could never happen on NPS property?
Where’s the admission of providing false information? (As I told you so).
