RAPID CITY, S.D. (KEVN) - South Dakota Senator Mike Rounds stated in regards to former President Donald Trump’s guilty verdict.

In a statement, Rounds said, “This verdict probably helps former President Trump grow his support politically. The left is so disconnected from the pulse of America. They’ve underestimated the disgust with Washington, D.C., and the bureaucracy that is crushing families and the economy. Now, they’ve opened a Pandora’s box. A good portion of the country believes the only way to save our country is to swing back just as hard, with the same weaponization of the legal system and bureaucracy. As Americans, we are better than this. I pray we keep our wits and do it at the ballot box. Unfortunately, I fear this will only divide our country even further.”
