I know this virus is a bioweapon designed to kill off a majority of the population, and I understand that Trump has to go along with it, or look like he doesn't want to keep people safe, but I admire this Governor for keeping to the Constitution and rights of the People! The Ron Paul Revolutiion which was my first participation in politics taught me a lot!!

: Kristi down “draconian measures” and championed good hygiene,
: hand-washing, and maintaining social distance. She also
: called what she’s doing “leadership,” as opposed to
: something very different: “The calls to apply a
: one-size-fits all approach to this problem in South Dakota
: is herd mentality, not leadership.”

: Important to note are the COVID-19 stats in South Dakota. By
: way of comparison, at the time of this writing, hotbed New

: York City has had 130,689 total cases, with a death rate
: per million people of 243. South Dakota’s seen 288 cases
: total, with a rate of fatality per million of 5.

: That’s quite a contrast, which certainly goes some distance in
: bolstering her anti-one-size-fits-all way of thinking.

: “South Dakota is not New York City,” the governor said. “And
: our sense of personal responsibility, our resiliency, and
: our already-sparse population density put us in a great
: position to manage the spread of this virus without needing
: to resort to some of the measures that we’ve seen in some
: of these major cities, coastal cities, and in other
: countries.”

: She further explained: “My responsibility is to respect the
: rights of people, and the people who elected me. To manage
: our state operations in a way that reflects the realities
: of what we have here on the ground in our state. On the
: foundation of my principles, commonsense conservative
: values, and the principles that we hold dear in America,
: the facts, the science, and the data will guide our
: decision-making here in South Dakota.”
