North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum, a rising star in conservative circles, is reportedly near the top of Donald Trump’s shortlist for the vice presidential spot. Burgum, known for his successful business background and leadership in North Dakota, has been making waves with his strong support for Trump’s potential return to the White House.
During a recent appearance on Fox Business, Burgum made a compelling case for Trump, highlighting the stark contrast between the Trump presidency and the current Biden administration.
“For the first time in over a century, people can actually look at President Trump and go, ‘I remember what it was like. The world was at peace, inflation was under control…I could afford to buy a house,'” Burgum stated.

Burgum’s remarks resonate with many Americans who fondly remember the economic prosperity and relative global stability during Trump’s tenure. Inflation was under control, the stock market reached record highs, and unemployment rates were at historic lows. These achievements stand in stark contrast to the current economic challenges, including soaring inflation, supply chain disruptions, and a struggling stock market.
Furthermore, Burgum emphasized the importance of strong leadership in the face of global challenges. “It’ll be very easy for voters to pick President Trump over Biden,” he asserted, highlighting Trump’s proven track record in foreign policy and his ability to navigate complex international relationships.
Burgum’s endorsement of Trump comes at a crucial time for the Republican Party, as it seeks to rally support and unify its base ahead of the upcoming elections. As a popular governor with a strong conservative record, Burgum’s support could prove invaluable in securing Trump’s nomination and ultimately, the presidency.
With his business acumen, leadership experience, and unwavering support for Trump, Doug Burgum has emerged as a formidable contender for the vice presidential spot. As the political landscape continues to evolve, it remains to be seen whether Burgum’s star will continue to rise, potentially propelling him to the national stage alongside Donald Trump.
