North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum said on Monday he would not serve as former President Trump’s running mate if the former president were to win the party’s nomination in 2024.
“No, I would not,” Burgum, who is also running for president, said in an interview on “CNN This Morning,” when asked whether he would serve as Trump’s vice president.
“Happy to do lots of other things. I [had a] fabulous 30 years in the private sector, a lot of opportunities there,” the North Dakota governor continued.
Burgum also shot down the suggestion of accepting a cabinet position.

Who? Who cares. Per your comment, nobody asked Burgum. He did not even belong on the stage IMHO.

LOL, he was asked in an interview.

Going on CNN to say that is pretty disingenuous. Plus, if Trump wants a running mate from a Dakota, I think Kristi Noem would be Trump’s choice.

I don’t think this will impact Trump’s chances of carrying either of the Dakotas where he got 70 percent of the vote.

when a politician vainly claims they WOULDN’T do something it’s only because they would.

Burgum is a business as usual Big Business Liberal Capitalist politician in the Fox News mold.
