Thune and Noem Must Draw Line in Sand on Trump


Sioux Falls, SD (May 4, 2016)-

The South Dakota Democratic Party called on South Dakota Republican leadership to denounce Donald Trump ahead of the June 7th primary. Ann Tornberg, Chair of the South Dakota Democratic Party released the following statement:

“Sometimes silence speaks louder than words. By staying silent, John Thune and Kristi Noem have allowed Donald Trump’s violentmisogynisticconspiratorialracist campaign to blossom. Mike Rounds has practically endorsed the KKK’s endorsement of Trump.

History will not judge the weak-willed who acquiesced to Trump’s bigotry kindly. John Thune and Kristi Noem can’t have it both ways. They can’t brag about their spots in party leadership, but then contend they’re powerless to stop him. What has that leadership gotten South Dakota? What has it done for our country?

John Thune: Do you endorse a Presidential candidate that believes using nuclear weapons in Europe is sound foreign policy? Do you believe we should end NATO? Do you support Donald Trump?

Kristi Noem: Do you think it’s acceptable to repeatedly insult and degrade women? Do you believe women should be punished for having an abortion? Do you think women should be called dogs or fat pigs? Do you support Donald Trump?

These questions deserve definitive answers. No more splitting hairs. There is only one acceptable answer. Draw a line in the sand, put your country ahead of your party and denounce the threat Trump poses to American democracy.”
