Kristi Noem slams Covid shutdowns, defends South Dakota's record at CPAC

Why should Non Progs care about you?
I don't care if you care about me or not. What you should care about is the factual accuracy of my argument and the intellectual bankruptcy of yours. The economy was shut down because of COVID. Had it not been shut down by mandate the spread would have been much worse, leading to a non-mandated shutdown caused by people being afraid to leave their homes as COVID spread like wildfire. As it was, Repub resistance to COVID protocols made things worse.

The truth is that the Covid "protocols" put in place by Andrew Cuomo spread Covid to other places because so many New Yorkers fled the city to places like Florida, Vermont, Maine and The Hamptons! Not only did Cuomo's policies destroy the economy of New York City...they spread the virus throughout the country.
 
2019 - Fauci's NIAID backs a second $3.7M grant to Wuhan Institute of Virology

Well, yeah. It’s pretty important that we work with China given the propensity for viruses to emerge there. It would be stupid to not keep an eye on these theeats

October 2019 - Event 201:pandemic Tabletop Exercise

Pandemic preparedness? Egad, what a scandal!

December 2019 - mRNA coronavirus vaccine candidates developed and jointly-owned by NIAID and Moderna reviewed -

Companies and the government partnering together to develop vaccine technology? Thank god, otherwise our COVID vaccine might not have been available now.

January 2020 - Fauci is out in public stating "this [Covid] is not something that the citizens of the US should be worried about"

Y’all never remember to include Fauci’s qualifier that there was no need to worry “right now”. “Now” being January 2020 when there was 1 case in the US.

Fauci funded the Wuhan Flu, what did he know and when did he know it?
 
Seriously? I asked you to prove your assertion and you post an article about real estate sales. Was that a joke?
What part of real estate sales are booming in Florida because people are moving there from liberal States that have been locked down by liberal Governors don't you grasp?

They're total horse shit.
They are a demonstrable, scientifically proven reality as shown by the CDC study.

Noem has fought against mask mandates and encouraged a large motorcycle rally that saw hundreds of thousands of people attend. South Dakota at times has struggled to contain the pandemic, having seen the most cases and deaths per capita among states in the country, according to data compiled by The Washington Post.
The problem is you're so dishonest...you refuse to pay attention to the science and just go full speed ahead with your blinders on.
Clearly this is political....that's why it's horse shit.
 
"Potential 2024 presidential hopeful Gov. Kristi Noem defended South Dakota's record on the coronavirus, railing against lockdowns in a speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference on Saturday.

In her lengthy address, Noem argued that government, not the pandemic, “crushed” the reeling U.S. economy."

I realize her kind of delusional blather scores well with the nutbars at CPAC, but the factual record matters to some of us. Though, admittedly, not those in attendance.

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO) — The Sturgis Rally, an annual motorcycle rally in the Black Hills, was a coronavirus spreader and study of cases in Minnesota shows, a newly released report by the Centers for Disease Control says.

Repubs seemed to have a penchant for holding super spreader events while mocking COVID safety protocols. They are apparently oblivious to the idea such events were counter productive to their stated goal of re-opening the economy. Being in touch with reality not being their bailiwick.
I'm so in love with her........Trump/Noem 2024
Two delusional liars at the top of the ticket. How fitting.
Yeah..Biden and Harris.
And both are morally corrupt.
One's a pedophile and the other a whore who slept her way to the top.

Another "study" that attempted to scare people into obeying the shutdowns blindly! The facts DO matter, Berg and unfortunately for you they don't back up your contention that Noem's decision not to shut down South Dakota's economy was the wrong one...just as Andrew Cuomo's and Gavin Newsome's decision to lock down New York and California didn't keep them from having high Covid numbers while it totally destroyed their economies. The Covid relief bill that liberals in Congress are now passing is in large part designed to keep those two States from going bankrupt...bankrupt because of decisions that their Governors made...decisions that destroyed both States economies.
Her kind of common sense unnecessarily added to the 500K+ death toll. If her "common sense" had been implemented from the time of the outbreak that number would be closer to 1M. The essential fallacy she is promoting is restrictions hurt the economy when in truth if the restrictions had not been in place the economy would be worse off.
So show the numbers that prove her state has worse infection and death rates than does New York and California. If what you say is true, they should be worse. If the numbers are better, she made the right call for her state.
 
Yeah..Biden and Harris.

IOW, your inability to make a fact based argument has lead you to expose the delusional beliefs you hold inspired by blind hatred of those with whom you disagree. How pathetic.

So CDC tracing of Covid strains shows that the strain originating in Europe which infected most of the people in the New York City area also was responsible for infecting most of the US...but you don't see the connection between the lockdowns by Cuomo causing wealthy New Yorkers to ride out the pandemic in other locations that WEREN'T locked down as tightly and the subsequent spread of the virus to other parts of the country? Andrew Cuomo's lockdowns were the super spreader in this pandemic...you just refuse to admit that it happened that way because you want to blame Noem for the virus's spread which is laughable! People didn't leave South Dakota in massive numbers like they did New York because they didn't NEED to because they had a Governor who didn't overreact to the hype.
