If you were wondering why the State GOP had to shift their plans for a state dinner from this weekend to September, there’s a good reason. A change in schedule came about because they needed to adjust to get one of the biggest speakers that the Republican Party has to offer; former President Donald Trump.
Our Monumental Leaders Rally just got 45 times better as we look forward to hearing from the original America First leader, President @realDonaldTrump!

Stay tuned for more coverage.. And I should also have the link where you can score tickets to the event!
Well this should make the Goebbels-want-to-be Cory shortyberger happy. He was all concerned over at his national socialist propaganda blog that Mr. Powers hadn’t posted anything about this event (which only proves he reads this blog regularly).
yes they are all concerned about the Republican front-runner when their own Democrat front-runner is showing signs of terminal decline, is losing the ability to walk & talk, and the only players on their bench are an idiot anti-vaxxer promoted by Tucker Carlson and a vice president whose explanation of the Russian invasion of Ukraine was an insult to the intelligence of small children.
That’s a deep bench as in doo-doo.
But ranting and raving about the Republican candidates is how they are going to distract the public from the mess they are in themselves.
And you are supporting a rapist and dictator wannabe who will wipe his butt with the constitution. Great work, Anne!
Got news for you pal, Joe Biden has someone wiping his butt with the constitution because he doesn’t have the ability to do it himself.
So edgy. Biden does it to help others. Trump does it to help himself. Do you really want a dictator?
Biden is incompetent and Trump is selfish and evil. They both need to go out to pasture.
Please, a super liberal like him has a bidet.
I didnt say I was buying the tickets.
I observed that the Democrats have a problem with their front-runner, as in, he is a candidate for hospice care. We don’t know how often he falls down, only the number of times we have seen it happen, but his gait shows marked deterioration. His speech has become garbled. It’s called “terminal decline.”
And coming up behind him are RFK Jr and Kamala Harris. Who else have they got?
Gavin Newsom has been cagey about how many times a week he gets a call from somebody begging him to run..By now it’s probably daily. Now a Democratic strategist, Doug Schoen, has announced Newsom “wants to run.” If he won’t announce he’s running, members of the DNC will do it for him.
Since I consider Trump to be beyond despicable and a also a serial lying criminal I will gladly pass on this event!
Rent free.
Doesn’t like the truth. How liberal of you.
Rent free.
No…punching bag…well deserved.
Rent free.
Meh. Cory doesn’t know diddley about the event, so he has to fill the void of ignorance with making up stupid.
What I can say without fear of speaking out of turn is that there has been a lot of work and moving parts that went in on this, and being privvy to a number of details sometimes means that I have to keep my powder dry for various reasons, even though others are slinging a lot of stuff that’s not necessarily accurate.
No one can deny that this was a very epic “get” by the SDGOP. Usually in SD they aren’t able to get more than a quick in-and-out by a presidential front runner (and/or) immediate past president, and that’s typically to benefit a candidate. Here, the SDGOP has him for a state party dinner, and associated fundraiser. In 35 years of being involved with the GOP, this might be the most prominent speaker they’ve ever had.
Huge (dare I sat Yuuge?) win for Senator Wiik.
Senator Wiik is a swell fellow, indeed.
One of the PHL IV personalities will be there to watch 45.
I still donât think this means the âonly Trumpersâ will shut up about John Wiik hating Trump. I canât believe some of the crap these people come up with. Itâs almost as bad as saying Thune Rounds and Johnson want Biden over a Republican. The only Trumpers will say anything if they ever disagreed with Trump even once.
This makes no sense.
maybe heâs responding to the âmove to south dakotaâ campaign.
What do all of these top Trump appointees have in common?
Mattis, Spencer, Bolton, Kelly, Tillerson, Esper, Chao, Barr, Scaramucci and Manigault-Newman.
Anyone?
You might be thinking… I know, I know… they are all part of the Deep State!
Uh, well… no. That would be crazy.
They have all publicly stated that Donald Trump is unfit for office, however. That’s TEN of his top appointees – that I can think of. There are more. How do you ignore that list of prominent TRUMP officials who are warning you to wake up?
You explain it. I sure can’t. History will be very unkind to those of you who stick with this guy.
Trump for Prison 2024!
Very excited to have the great 45th, and soon to be 47th, President here in SD! President Trump loves our country and he works tirelessly to make it better for ALL Americans – even the mentally ill who still havenât realized all the BS they did and said about him were LIES. It takes a special kind of stupid not to see through the treasonous actions of the uniparty attempt to overthrow a sitting President. Will Thune and the other DC light-weights whining, âIâm going to leave the R partyâ and â2020 was a free & fair electionâ be super mad? Brighter days ahead, America!
those of us who donât prefer trump constantly note that trump himself cares not a whit about the republican party, except with regard to how he can use it for himself in various legal tangles, or to simply destroy others who donât prefer him.
regardless of the hate and insults you heave at us for loathing trump, we all feel like at the end of the day we know who the real republicans are. we are very happy and comfortable waiting you all out.
2020 was a free and fair election. You and the rest of the bridge club may be incredibly passionate in your beliefs, but it doesn’t make you right.
But I bet you think the FD1023 is hearsay and should be ignored.
Not sure yet. Grassley is investigating as we speak, so I will see what the evidence is. You think I like Biden, but I dont. He’s a senile weirdo. He still won an election against a historically polarizing president. Ok, now you go.
Weeeel . . . lookee, lookee at this. Think R. Shawn and the rest of the Grumpy GOPers will apologize to the Chairman for their looney accusations about the date change now?
Naw, didn’t think so, either.
R. Shawn is busy stocking up his garage for his next MInnehaha GOP rummage sale.
It is a legendary “get” for the GOP Leaders, but, frankly, I’d rather hear from Mike Pence, or, dare I say it, Liz Chaney. I think Trump is a charlatan, at best, and a fraud at the worst. I won’t argue that former President Trump will not be a popular choice for the majority of South Dakota Republican activists.
Pence already shot himself in the foot with his “that’s nor my problem” comment. And Liz Cheney????
“Not”
cheneyâs a class act. she should rightly hold the derision that trumpfans heap upon her, as a badge of honor. she was anyoneâs notion of the perfect republican before trump smashed everything and made this party into his barbie dream house.
Love her or hate her, Cheney has been right all along. I think that’s why the Trump faction can’t stand her. They need someone to confirm their stupid beliefs and she won’t do it.
Despicable Trump, Despicable Biden, Despicable Harris!!!! Will we ever get candidates that the educated public will not have to hold their nose to vote for!! The majority of the country is looking for candidates that have better than a 4th grade vocabulary, that don’t talk like the elementary school bully, that have all their mental and physical faculties, that show up at the southern border to know the destruction that is going on there and knows world events. The majority of us are sick about what is going on with the leading political parties!!!
The Republican Party nominated a perfect gentleman in Mitt Romney, and he lost. They nominated a couple of war heroes in Bob Dole and John McCain, and they lost. They were well-mannered statesmen, and the voters rejected them all. You can’t tell Republicans that the voters want leaders like that, because election results show they don’t.
The Democrats had better candidates to choose from in past years than the unqualified Obama and senile Biden, but rejected them.
If the “majority of the country” is looking for better candidates, they need to show up and vote for better candidates.
If the Democrats could stop letting Trump live rent-free in their heads and focus on drafting Newsom that would be a start, but the derangement is real.
oooh iâm so glad you mentioned romney. this timid milquetoast as you view him, had the guts and ability to build a solid family and family fortune the american way, via hard work. he rose to positions of political power via his public involvement and republican governorship in a very liberal state. romney brought expertise and gravitas to business matters; he firmly and humbly came to this party and won its 2012 nomination – he called out russia as the next big international problem and was laughed at by potus 44; fellow âgoodâ mormon harry ried blatantly lied about romney being some kind of tax cheat leading up to the 2012 election; and all through it the current trump fan club deserted him, calling him âmittensâ and helping dems wreck his campaign with lies. i love that the first thing he did at the state of the union address was to tell george santos âyou shouldnât be here,â in just the same fashion he has publicly called trump out for the egomaniacal train wreck that his governing style and management style is. i wish the senate had 98 romneys to work with thune and rounds.
dole and mccain were promoted by the dems and media as much as by gop leaders, and in my mind represent the last time republicans trusted the mainstream media for anything. in hindsight dole and mccain were teed up like golf balls by the media caddys for clinton and obama. i do recall the media clearly didnât want romney in it at all, and bent over backward to bury him. again, we who donât like trump are pretty comfortable with staying out of the fan club.
Yes, Enquirer, Romney would have been a good POTUS. The American voters didn’t want him, though, they wanted four more years of Obama’s incompetence.
It was the mess that Obama made of basically everything that fueled the anger which elected Trump. People who had never bothered to vote before because they couldn’t see any difference between Democrats and Republicans wanted real change.
BINGO! obama, coupled with pelosi, with hilaryâs blithe notions of entitlement, fueled trump-fever. plus: we didnât fully see trump in action yet. hindsight is wonderful.
“educated public”
Rolls eyes.
Write large, the SD public hates higher education.
It’s sad, but the SD universities have been infiltrated with bad ideas, too, but quickly the tide changes.
Republicans hate education…period
I’m with the enquirer on this…with the exception that I think McCain was a great American and would have been a strong leader as President…Monae Johnson is just another amateur in office and is finding out how tough it is to build a good staff in Pierre…she should have Kea Warne’s number on speed dial.
mccain was good but he let his campaign people drop the ball; he didnât go hard enough to win.
McCain wanted the nomination but he didn’t want the job. As soon as he was nominated, he announced his work in the Senate was more important than the campaign for the Presidency, and left Sarah Palin out there on the campaign trail by herself with the most asinine list of talking points remember the “maverick” nonsense?) anybody ever heard of.
I talked with a person who worked on that campaign who said it was the worst one he had ever been involved with. Don’t blame the staff because the candidate couldn’t be bothered to show up.
thank you. i suspected as much.
I graduated High School in Northern Arizona in 1993, then College twice in 2000 and 2005 (Tucson). I lived and worked in Arizona.
As a long-time Arizona Independent and then Conservative who has moved back to SD (12 years now), my sources indicate that McCain was a traitor to America, but very good for globalists who wanted to loot the US treasury and natural resources.
McCain was more of a patriot than you will ever be.
Calling a man who refused to leave his fellow americans in a prison camp and subsequently was tortured because of it a traitor. He actually fought for his country. You just talk about it, you feckless coward.
i remember a national-level leader who wouldnât forget history. he deduced the point where events first went off the rails, and he tracked connections and governments and corporations and crime syndicates from then to the modern day. he and his followers were caretakers of a specially curated truth, one which the general population was ignorant of either by circumstance or choice. he KNEW how weâd gone wrong and he KNEW more than anyone, what it would take to set it right again if he was president. on 04 FEB 1988, lyndon larouche bought a half-hour of prime time national tv on cbs, to carefully illustrate how abandoning the breton woods accords nearly a century ago now, led to corruption of private banking, how the world drug trade can be blamed on the queen of england and international cartels, and so on. it was a grand jenga-tower of connectable factoids, seemingly ironclad.
i study the postings of the trump fan club and i know lyndon larouche is alive and well. via q-anon, breitbart.com (after andrew breitbartâs death) much of the dark web, and every fox news host that regurgitated this stuff for fun and profit, the jenga-tower was half built before trump came along to dance and cavort from the high window. a big funny part of this is that the movement venerates a guy who doesnât understand or even care about the conspiracies, except for what he can use in his stump speeches for red meat to keep the crowds cheering. so congrats. you all are doing to the gop, what the gop hoped larouche would do to the dnc many years ago. stick with trump, heâs going places.
She should make a hire that has merit.
South Dakota’s elections will not be on NFT anytime soon.
“should not be” on NFT.
Hey, can we make our hand-countable ballots from South Dakota made hemp paper?
Will Thune attend? Will Rounds attend? Will Dusty attend? I doubt it, that orange stain is hard to wash out.
maybe trump will launch taffy at dusty for another primary run. iâd bet sheâll be there. he he he hehhh. hey the gov will be there so thereâs that.
