The Skab is at it again, being the propaganda wing of the SD GOP;
The Republican president, who last week won back the White White White House in a landslide victory
OK, they didn’t say White 3 times, but they should have. DJT got 1M more votes then he did in 2020. It wasn’t a landslide, it was a squeaker. He pretty much secured his base and Harris did not. To be honest, it is kind of sad, you had 4 years to improve your numbers and this is all you got?! A landslide in my opinion is taking the popular vote by at least 5 points.
The Skab is a Red Meat publication, and little else. I would be embarrassed as a journalist to be this bias. Oh, I am bias, but I am also an editorial blogger who doesn’t have to fight with my sales department. I also find it ironic that after a few years their subscriptions are only 7,000. Pretty sad considering they are doing public notices for over 200K people. I don’t have a subscription on my site, but if I looked at data I have about 10,000 unique visits a month. I make very little money, so I don’t care, but when you try to be the propaganda wing of the SD GOP and only have a teeny tiny subscription rate it makes you wonder if it really matters. Recently someone who advertised in the Skab told me he got no bump in business from the ad. And I said, ‘Why would yah?’ You have a bunch of right wing nuts commenting and reading the site. Extremists in both parties only make up about 20% of the electorate respectively. So why do we tolerate this horse sh!t? I encourage everyone to cancel their subscription, it’s not news, it’s just huff and puff and a bunch of misspelled words from a boozer staff.
I think once Americans will be forced to eat canned sodium filled vegetables for a year they will realize how much of a mistake it was (can’t wait to see the images of rotting vegetables in California fields). When your policy is based on discrimination, nothing good comes from it. I told friends today, enjoy your local ethic restaurants over the next few months, because after DJT takes office our options will be Panda Express and Taco Bell. As Kramer would say;
Well, here’s the thing. The threshold for a landslide is 55%. Trump got 58% of the Electoral College vote (312), but only 50% of the popular vote in 2024. So, it was a EC landslide, but not a popular vote landslide. AND, keep in mind, Trump received 306 EC votes in ’16, the last time he won, which was an EC landslide at 57%, but he took second in the popular vote with 46% of the popular vote. So, the fact that you can win the EC in a landslide without winning the popular vote makes the EC percentage an imperfect judge of whether a victory was a true landslide, but a popular vote count will always be a good judge of that, but unfortunately for Trump, he has never surpassed the 55% marker to call his popular vote counts a landslide or landslides.
But I’m not surprised that the Dakota (War College) Scout called Trump’s 2024 victory a landslide, because this is the same Republican rag that printed three negative stories about South Dakota Republican leaders as soon as Scott and I, through my comments, called out the D(WC)S for being a partisan rag. AND, nothing more clearly proves this partisan criticism than all of the big Republican ads that can be found in this rag around election time. #RepublicanRecord #ThuneTimes #RoundsRecorder #NoemNews #DustyDispatch #TrumpTribune #VanceVox
“But let’s not forget that under Trump we lost the Mexican Pizza at Taco Bell, but luckily Biden brought it back”….

The irony is one of the owners(?) of the Skab has something in common with DJT, and it ain’t ravishing good looks;
