She is as stupid and crazy as Donald J.

Does not look like South Dakota has a recall provision for Governors.

13. She's had 20 speeding tickets.

From 1989 to 2010, Noem received 27 traffic citations, including 20 for speeding[91] and other violations. She said, "I'm not proud of my driving record, but [I've] been working hard to be a better example to young kids and young drivers out there."[92] She had paid her fines and penalties by August 2010.

Pretty sure she doesn’t give a damn about anyone’s safety.

[Wellstone ruled]

28. BTW,she created two jobs for

her sons to the tune of 1.6 million for the both. Yah,way to go you ding bat.

SIL as well as my Brother think she is the real deal .

[ZZenith]

34. Oh she's the real deal alright -

a real stone-cold crazy-ass crook.

Has a governor ever had a thinner resume?

[Wellstone ruled]

37. Know of three.

Home maker,NRA member in good standing,Family controls Hamlin County Board.

[ZZenith]

38. The county seat of which contains 382 people.

Gawd help us.

[Wellstone ruled]

39. Yup,

Hayti. She be a big one. Her Family owns the Lumber and building center.

[ZZenith]

40. Wait - I didn't realize she was South Dakota Snow Queen for 1990.

Is she overqualified for governor then?


Wellstone sure would have known the right thing to do and would have then done it. Alas.

[Wellstone ruled]

41. Wow,did not know that,

makes her well qualified. Maybe a bit over qualified.

14. The stupidity of Trump supporters

never ceases to amaze me.

15. It is becoming the new Laetrile

Quack cancer cure heavily promoted by right-wing political groups in the 70s

16. Look out, Nikki Haley!

There's another attractive, yet stupid and utterly corrupt female governor competing for your "future president" status.

20. The Caribou Barbie of 2024...?

[tblue37]

17. Jump on the bandwagon right when everyone else is scrambling to get off. nt

[eleny]

29. +1!

[regnaD kciN]

18. This is AFTER it's been shown to have no effect, and even cause additional fatalities?

Oh, well, I guess try anything as a smokescreen for avoiding an isolation order.

[DFW]

19. Does she get any of the blame for any of the patients she will kill with this measure?

Or, will they all be collateral damage as usual?

[Hortensis]

22. Don't get too excited. Plaquenil is a heavy-duty PRESCRIPTION

drug with serious side effects. It's probably not in her power to have it hawked on street corners, and the chances that the big chain pharmacies would be willing to incur the liability of selling it over the counter are pretty much nil. Any trial will be carried out by physicians under trial protocols.

[pwb]

25. She is right on top of things ha?

Clean up the meat. Do your job. Defending stupidity is getting old.

26. "Just say 'No.'" nt

27. More deaths, no benefit from malaria drug

A malaria drug widely touted by President Donald Trump for treating the new coronavirus showed no benefit in a large analysis of its use in U.S. veterans hospitals. There were more deaths among those given hydroxychloroquine versus standard care, researchers reported.

The nationwide study was not a rigorous experiment. But with 368 patients, it's the largest look so far of hydroxychloroquine with or without the antibiotic azithromycin for COVID-19, which has killed more than 171,000 people as of Tuesday.

The study was posted on an online site for researchers and has been submitted to the New England Journal of Medicine, but has not been reviewed by other scientists. Grants from the National Institutes of Health and the University of Virginia paid for the work ...

30. lunacy................. this country has lost its MIND...........

[defacto7]

31. Been there, done that. Give it up.

[bdamomma]

32. I guess

she wants to "cull" her own citizens, she's looking for a job with the cult regime.

[GusBob]

33. Everyone relax Jesus she is not a Dr

She has no authority to issue this

[gratuitous]

35. She can't force anyone to sign up for the trial

But since her campaign donor pharmaceutical company is ready to start handing out pills to South Dakotans who want to give hydroxychloroquin a whirl, the line will probably be out the door. The longest part of the waiting will be having the lemmings sign the waiver not to sue should something go horribly, lethally wrong.

[Dem2]

36. I guess if you're just plain stupid, you kiss your party's ass to look better?

She's clearly incompetant.

[rockfordfile]

42. she's a criminal

43. Trump cult taking the kool aid in pill form

Natural selection.
