This interview originally aired on In the Moment on SDPB Radio.
Seth Tupper takes us back to the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic and explores the political legacy of the word "should."
Gov. Kristi Noem used that word to make recommendations instead of regulations. The hands-off approach became her signature in terms of her pandemic policies.
And, according to Tupper, it helped her capture the national spotlight, something she may be looking to recapture soon.
Tupper is the editor-in-chief of South Dakota Searchlight.
