Doug Burgum says it doesn’t matter whom Trump picks for his running mate. And that’s exactly why, when Trump’s game of vice-presidential Twister is finally over, it’s likely to find Burgum the “winner.”
In a Sunday appearance on CNN’s “State of the Union,” the North Dakota governor—who at this point has been away from his home state so long he might need a map to find his way back—told journalist Kaitlan Collins, "I think we have to just look at the fact that President Trump could win this race regardless of who his vice president is. He's got the luxury of not having to pick someone."
Mr. No One is likely to be Burgum for two reasons. First, this “he has the luxury” speech might as well be Burgum jumping up and down and screaming, “Pick me! I will never upstage you!” Second, Burgum is the perfect ambassador to the only group Trump really cares about in this race.
