More victims for the sociopath. He will never get enough. Don't Go!

Good! They shouldn't!

That area is a tinder box- they should hand out rakes.

Wow what a smart decision South Dakota! (Not) The attendees will all be Maga’s, and it will be at an excellent opportunity to increase potential COVID infection. Dem’s you stay home we need you in Nov.

What a Shitshow

Trump one of the great President.

This is great news. And the right decision.

So South Dakota will be the next hot spot

KristiNoem stupid is as stupid does. Clearly you haven't learned anything from other states.

No ones doing it at protests so why should anyone else

Beware the swine flu!

Considering this is the face of the current Republican party, it's no wonder...

I can't imagine anyone else didn't come up with this joke already, but hey, I also can't imagine that there's enough people in South Dakota to have to concern themselves with social distancing in the first place.

Well we can't hide from it! We have a vaccine for the flu and it still comes back every year and kills 100's of thousands around the world. The at risk and those living with the at risk must take the highest precautions...but even they can't fully avoid it. Focus on health

StayAtHomeSaveLives

Terrible for folks over there. He is going there for photo ops nothing more.

Please Yanks when are you going to get your brains in gear 🤬

Trump is dangerous.

Then don't!

What a shit show

Why do all these Republican politicians think COVID19 is going to know who is a Trump follower when it infects them?

$1,000 says that not 1 (one) democrat could find South Dakota on a map if asked on the street and giving them a map! 🥴

The Protesters and Rioters didn't do social distancing. 🤔🤔🤔🤔

As Confucius says: When you gotta go, you gotta go.

Cage all of them for at least 14 days afterwards.

The rapture is a slow drip.

So what you really want is a Trump rally. Happy 4th of July to the only Americans the Republicans really care about.

Stay healthy and aware of others. Social distance among other things!

Yes!!! The 4th of July is ON!

So public spaces are for ignorant a$$holes only Great job, now go attend a trump rally and suck on some ‘rapture’

Great way to lead

RampageRantz VoteRedToSaveAmerica2020 Democrats hate America and it's obvious! ❤🇺🇸❤🇺🇸❤🇺🇸

I saw it once and I was Mesmerized

Cool. The covid tour continues. Spreading hate, division and covid everywhere he goes.

govkristinoem NOT your land no matter what you think or say or however many times you speak on it, NOT YOURS. Quit kissing Trumps 🍑. NativeGov

But all 'those folks' are going to be suffering the consequences of you little party. In all kinds of ways.

The American people want all this Bull Shit over with!!!

Here more fraudulent COVID results!

those satanics of the satanic elite What rights were respected of those children who raped, sacrificed and ate? They did not respect their right to live those children below the elite no more

The president's on Mt Rushmore are crying. TraitorTrump has no right to be in their presence

She’s smokin fckn hot too 🥵

Bring on the South Dakota Covid spike.

All of these governors that are misleading the people and not setting the right focus really need to be voted out. This country because of its lack of leadership will lose many lives/ people.

FFS

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 YUP, THE SHEEPLE CAN STAY HOME !!!!

SaRaAshcraft Your quotes are even fake. Cya there!🙄🤡🇺🇸

Their ignorance, arrogance and stupidity overwhelm me.

Let them die, we don't need my idiots

It's laughable the trolls are condemning the Gov's words but at the EXACT same time, saying ZERO about the lack of social distancing during the protests and riots. So F*ing ridiculous. Do they even hear themselves? 🤣

MASKS should be worn, regardless of your stature in the community.... WE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER

Until these idiots in charge change their ways the pandemic will continue to wreak havoc on our nation.

LOVE IT!

I also believe that mask 😷, social distancia, and quarantine all are about 5 common sense, you need to get informed... -I said

Pack them in. Nice and tight. Particularly around that stage.

So they are going to self quarantine before going back to work, or no? It’s the people that they spread it to that are the real victims of your ignorance.

Is it too early to book the Ghana funeral pallbearers for the attendees?

The SD governor Krist Noem has been coined the 'Stupidest Governor in America' she has sure lives up to her name! govkristinoem

Stupid is as stupid does.

Democrats-stay home. We know you hate the country anyway. No need to show up and spread your hate and germs

Freedom of choice. Go figure

How can she be so ignorant? Does she not see what is happening in AZ, FL andTX?

SaRaAshcraft Good. Americans are adults and can make their own judgement based on risk asseement. Protestors follow the same process.

With the 2 million tickets that were sold, it will end as it did last time ... So social distancing is not a problem

Be nice if everyone just stayed home.

She’s opposed by the mass protesters & rioters

God bless America.. free corona virus available in South Dakota for the 4th of July Celebration..

The look when you realize that level of stupid does exist

'If you don't want to die, just don't live.' Way to go America... you're just allowing your government to play with people's lives. At least it's your own instead of some poor undeveloped country.

I got to agree, it’s a choice. You want to wear a mask, then wear a mask. If you don’t, then don’t. It should be a choice. If people feel it’s a risk, then so be it. It’s your own personal preference and people should respect others decisions.

Not how it works. Unless the attendees are planning to stay there...

Will they be wearing masks? Here in Ohio we have to wear them even to protest.

Folks that have concerns should vote these idiots out.

They have shit for ICU beds too.

It's just basic common sense so obviously Democrats are completely offended. 🤦‍♀️

Great leadership.

That's what they should all be doing.

And that’s as it should be.

Mask mask mask mask mask mask mask mask mask mask mask mask 😷

That looks like someone realDonaldTrump might want to grab by the pussy!

I would park a few miles away and watch fireworks with grazing cows rather than with lemurs.

So, we’ll all see the spike in South Dakota about 07/18/20.

This administration is clearly trying to kill as many Americans as possible.

People that go should have to quarantine afterwards Corona

What about social distancing during the protests and rioting ? Not one word from ABC about that.

“Concerns” oh you know like possible death from catching a virus

The Governor can be trumps co-conspirator in the deaths of those that attend this ridiculous event. Sickening. Fortunately it’ll only be trump supporters attending ‘this event.

Evolution in real time. Take deep breaths everyone!

Mandatory hugging.

Everyone has what he or she deserves

Good for you. Deaths keep falling yet the fear mongering news outlets keep pushing for testing so the numbers go up to look scarey.

Not surprising coming from the 'we're on Meth' state

Right decision to make.

Top Democrats Push For Nationwide Mask Mandate, Trump Pushes BackJoe Biden has said that if he's elected president in November, he will use federal power to require all Americans to wear masks in public places to prevent the spread of coronavirus. What for? Biden is going to make us all wear masks? because of TrUMP we'll all HAVE to wear the masks. That's the big difference. One caused this scenario, one is protecting us from this catastrophe. US is 4.6% of the world pop. yet we have 25% of C19 virus deaths. Trump's denial, his cult's refusal to wear mask/stay home, and push to prematurely reopen is killing Americans by the thousands. Trump & cult are not just irresponsible, but a clear & present danger to our nation.
