Republican South Dakota Sen. John Thune brushed off criticism from former President Donald Trump in a Friday interview on Fox News’ “Your World With Neil Cavuto.”

Honor and Honesty are not on your side John.
The only part I dispute is that he’s telling the truth, but I agree that he needs to be primaried.
I wouldn’t call a pathetic attempt at getting “good boy points” from talking heads on television and twitter exactly “speaking the Truth”.
I would say that is a very good description of a man who confuses his opinion with the "truth".
Thune is just stupid.
In 2002 he gave in and surrendered his own seat to the Democrat with a 524 seat lead, 149,000+ votes cast, and several voter fraud charges against the Democrats.
He is anything but a fighter.
if being HUNG is the price of TREASON and SEDITION
then so be it, already.
or..... get ready for MORE!!! (just like before)
NOVEMBER 13,2002
Republican Rep. John Thune will not challenge his narrow defeat by Democratic incumbent Tim Johnson in last week’s U.S. Senate election.
Thune told reporters Wednesday morning that although there were irregularities in the Nov. 5 election, they were not enough to make up for Johnson’s 524-vote margin.
“Therefore, I see no reason to subject the people of South Dakota to a long, drawn-out, painful and protracted struggle over 524 votes,” Thune said.
The totals after the official canvass this week showed Johnson finishing with 167,481 votes (49.62 percent), Thune with 166,957 (49.47 percent) and Libertarian Kurt Evans with 3,070 (0.91 percent).
If you want to open your mouth John you might want to utilize the truth while doing so.
Who has President Trump endorsed? My checkbook is ready
I did not know that Trump encouraged Noem to run for his seat, so that makes this article informative.
The truth as he sees it, of course.
I remember, before I was enlightened to what scum the elite were, how happy I was that this guy had won office. We had considered it a victory. Yet it was just more swamp slime wrapping itself around more power.
What Truth Thune?
The truth is you are a RINO.
And one of Mitch’s top axe man.
You are a disgrace to your State.
No, alledged senator Toon, getting primaried is the price for catching Potomac fever and turning into a jerk.
an amendment championed by Sen. John Thune, R-S.D., which quietly laid the tracks for funding the largest railroad project in almost 100 years. It’ll cost $2.5 billion, run 880 miles and link the coalfields of Wyoming’s Powder River Basin to the power plants of the Midwest.
Dayton’s problem? Before becoming senator, Thune had been through that revolving door. After serving three terms as South Dakota’s lone congressman, he spent 18 months as a lobbyist for the Dakota, Minnesota & Eastern Railroad, the company that’s building the new railroad. It was then that he and DM&E President Kevin Schieffer realized one way to get the stalled eight-year-old project going was through a Federal Railroad Administration loan.
There were problems with the idea, of course. For one thing, the project didn’t precisely fit the loan program, whose mandate was to help railroads fix existing track. Worse, the program was small: Its entire annual budget was only $3.5 billion.
While lobbying for the DM&E in 2004, Thune was campaigning for South Dakota’s Senate seat. And when he won, he continued to push for the project.
One would surely expect such treachery from a Senator representing Neuevo York,Mexifornia,Taxachusetts,etc...but not South Dakota...or Utah.
“Senator John Thune: ‘If Getting Primaried Is The Price’ For Speaking Truth, ‘Then So Be It’”
Whose truth?
“Mitch’s hand-picked successor getting quite arrogant.”
Wouldn’t you be arrogant? The Uniparty (R) is in complete control of its side of the swamp. Trump came and went (rather rode out of town on a rail by the GOP), his executive order accomplishments already destroyed. After allowing the Uniparty (R) to infiltrate and destroy MAGA Trump comes back to the Uniparty (R) to give the swamp another chance to ensure MAGA is dead and properly buried. Trump, working within the Uniparty (R) has been and will continue to be an abject failure. MAGA must transcend Trump. Trump showed incredible bad judgement by allowing the DS to totally own his cabinet while president. Trump has learned nothing from being deposed by Uniparty (R). He goes right back for more abuse.
“The totals after the official canvass this week showed Johnson finishing with 167,481 votes (49.62 percent), Thune with 166,957 (49.47 percent) and LIBERTARIAN Kurt Evans with 3,070 (0.91 percent).”
I vote Libertarian because it makes me feel good.
