burgum: thanks to you and your whole team.e have known each other for six years through the republican governors association. she is currently the chair and is super effective and focuses on driving great policy and elected republican governors. republican governors are getting it done in america rigight now. give it up for governor reynolds. gov. reynolds: thank you, i appreciate that. i grew up in a small town. you grew up in a small town. talk a little bit about how that has impacted your life. gov. burgum: i grew up in arthur, north dakota, 300 people. we did not even have a paved street. it was gravel roads. growing up there everything was great. you learn all the things you need to do, integrity, responsibility, hard rock -- work. when i was a freshman, my dad who was a world war ii veteran passed away and my mom had to go back to work. a widow with three kids and i got to see mom having to make the mortgage. between my mom and my dad, from my dad i learned about service and sacrifice. from my mom, she was such a rock. g

don't you even close to go there. >> i know. >> doug burgum can play basketball whenever doug burgumt, again, i think the point s you know, this is the moment when you're refining. for example, if you're someone like ron desantis and your strategy is stay cool when the attacks come, you're kind of rerunning that in your mind. if you've got an attack you're going to try to -- or a viral moment you're going to try to go for, you're just refining that in your mind and the teams behind the scenes are getting ready, war rooms are getting ready, but this is not a moment where you come up with some new game day strategy. it's really about you should have already done all the homework, all the study, all the prep so you are just ready to go when you walk on the stage. >> meditation, maybe that's the sport that they should choose to do. >> you can pull a muscle if you don't sit the right way. karen finney, thank you very much for all of this helpful advice. i'm sure the republican candidates would thank you as well for the advice. >> i'm sure. i'm sure. >> sara. >> i'm seeing a basketball tea

burgum: i haven't heard anything. for generations to come they have to pay that down and right now we will cross the threshold. the interest on the federal debt now will exceed what we pay for our entire defense budget. one of the biggest items, interest will be more than that. it's just unsustainable. we have a couple of reasons why inflation is so high. let me just start with one of them which is red tape. this administration has surpassed obama not through passing laws but through executive orders and administrative rules from the epa. here is a new set of rules. here's the clean power plan. i've seen red tape is a small business person and i've seen it running global businesses and i've also seen it as a governor. and as a governor you have a front row seat because this stuff just slides out and some people don't even know it's happening. in north dakota we fight back. we spent millions of dollars suing the federal government, we won on the waters of the usc -- usa. the federal government can't make laws just thro

joining us now at 2024 gop candidate doug burgum.you here, governor, thank you nor joining us. i'll ask you question so many were asking, who is doug burgum? >> well, sandra, first of all, great to be with you and we are very excited to be on the debate stage. we just launched just under eight weeks ago. already meeting the polling criteria, i want to thank the 50,000 donors that have supported us so far. but we are excited to tell our story. i'm a small town kid from a small town in north dakota, built a business from scratch into a billion dollar company, and opportunity to lead global companies, we built it with small town kids and now have an opportunity the last six and a half years to lead north dakota and we have cut taxes, eliminated red tape, closed define benefit pension plan people have been trying to get done 30 years and on track to have the highest gdp of any state in the nation. we know we have a great story to tell and talking about the three things where the biden administration is headed in the wrong direction. the

it's north dakota governor doug burgum.ernor burgum, thanks for joining us on "meet the press." >> thanks for having us on this morning. >> you got it. since you and i spoke a month ago, a couple of more indictments came down on the former president and i know you want to get on to other topics, but do you think he wanted to overturn the election results in 2020? that he made a concerted effort to do that? >> i think there's an entire cable news industry, there's an entire social industry built around trying to answer that question, and where we're coming from, we're excited to be on the debate stage and the least known candidate on there. if you want to fill this gap where you mentioned 83% of americans don't trust our institutions the way that starts is leadership at the top. any organization i've been involved with it starts with a leader that you can trust, that's got the character and the integrity and the proven track record of being able to do that, and that's what i've done my whole life in every organization i've b

>> brian: burgum. three names and tell me which will not be on the stage. scott, ron desantis, greg gutfeld? >> probably ron desantis. >> brian: gutfeld will be there running for president. >> i'll have to look him up. >> brian: one request before you throw me off? you'll do it? can i hit the horn. >> absolutely. >> ainsley: to do. >> steve: how much can you rent that boat for? its rent me on the side. you did ask how much it is to rent, am i correct? looking into it for the rn rncainley has demanhattan mands. get the numbers and crunch it under the miscellaneous column. >> steve: you are talking about padding your expenses on tv? is that a good whied? >> brian: no, that is not a good idea. >> ainsley: you were everywhere, town square, straut restaurants, out with the water. i love the lady going to look up greg gutfeld, loved her. >> brian: right. that law enforcement officer, now retired was one of the first on the scene with the jeffrey dahmercase. >> steve: didn't see that coming. >> ainsley: did she tell you anything what that was like? >> steve: we do

number one, burgum at 1%. on the next graphic you'll see favorable 7%. never heard of 71. so your campaign went with this. doug who? a new leader for a changing economy. how do you prep for next wednesday? >> part of it is being here with you bill and dana. these really aren't debates. 60 seconds answers, no opening statement. a chance to answer questions in a multi-candidate format. being here with you is great debate -- prep. the other thing is being on the ground. we have continued iowa, new hampshire talking to voters, understanding what's on their mind and things they're interested in. >> dana: what are you hearing? >> inflation is number one. 700 bucks a more per family in america since biden took office is what they're paying for basic needs. biden administration is pushing the story inflation is down. prices are going up. it doesn't include energy and food. the two things every working family puts on the table. economy is number one. they are also concerned about the border. i was down there last week. we have two north dakota national guard deployments down there.

i'll ask doug burgum whether he's ready to confront the front-runner and his growing list of legal liabilitytrategy. president biden stays silent on the appointment of a the special counsel investigating his son. >> i have no comment on the investigation going on. that's up to the justice department and that's all i have to say. >> as public distrust grows in the legal system will president biden rise to the challenge at this critical moment for the american democracy. i'll ask tim wall, the surrogate for theed bient 2024. >> and law and order. >> the defendantsen gamed in a criminal racketeering enterprise to overturn georgia's presidential election result. >> donald trump was charged with 13 felony counts along with 18 other co-conspirators and is now facing 91 criminal charges in four separate criminal cases. >> how dare low life prosecutor, deranged jack smith, that's right. he's deranged. >> howl trump's threats against prosecutors, judges and potential witnesses impact all of these cases and will any of these trials begin before the november election? i'll talk to three former prosecut

we watched governor burgum come right through. he seems to be walking fine with only one achilles.tty amazing. he tore it. they said don't walk or stand on it. he says i have got to do both and he left. that was the advice he got from the bucks' team trainer who they were able to get yesterday. meanwhile the west best thing at the debate jabs. trump was attacked the most with six. ramaswamy tied him with six. foreperson areas where nikki haley was ready a tack because the foreign policy put out there by vivek ramaswamy, let's just say, this rather unique. listen to this exchange between the two and for me, nikki haley is on the right side of this one in every sense of the word. watch. >> a win for russia is a win for china. we have to know that. ukraine is the first line of defense for us and the problem that vivek doesn't understand is he wants to hand ukraine to russia. he wants to let china eat taiwan. he wants to go and stop funding israel. you don't do that to friends. what you do is instead you have the backs of your friends. ukraine is the frontline of defense. putin has sai

governor burgum.thought it was interesting youd is a question about the problems we're having in big cities. no one asks a question what about the crime wave in small towns? because in a small town neighbors help neighbors. people understand each other. if a farmer gets sick everybody comes together to help them get the crop off. there is accountability, transparency. one thing this country could use somebody in the white house that understands small town values, that is our road back to get this country on track again. applause place. bret: governor hutchison. >> at former head of the dea i understand the drug crisis in america and right now whenever you look at the challenges in our inner-city, there is three simple words that would be helpful, one enforce the law when it comes to crime. essentially, let's deal with the challenge of fentanyl. and it is both about stopping the fentanyl coming from mexico but it is also about education of our young people. making sure that we have the tools that are n

i'm betting burgum is in there.his comes after sustaining a torn achilles tendon last night playing pickup basketball. don't try to be larry bird. don't. we'll try to update you on doug burgum and sounds like he'll be the eighth gop candidate or one of them to be in the debate tonight. investors are gassing up deer and company and -- deere and company to build a factory in north carolina and boosting electrify indication eff effortd john deere plant is going for a fleet of electric tractors and vehicles. also electrifying off road is atv and vehicle maker particular is and began with all -- polaris and one of the first off roadsters to scrap the gas tank and go electric. the best selling utility vehicle with ranger fd240 and extreme duty utv developed with farmers, ranchers and hunters. joining me in a fox business exclusive is polaris ceo mike speetzen. mike, we were going to start with the demand you see for electric ranger but sold out in two hour when is you launched it. who's your premier buyer, if you could st

when you are looking at that list, how about doug burgum, he's joining us next hour, you've seen his state as governor, 67 years old, could become the dark horse candidate in this race. we'll talk to him about just that next hour as well as bret baier, breaking down all of this for our viewers. but who do democrats fear in this race? >> from my perspective, i think there's a contrast with ron desantis of all the candidates running beside president trump. he's probably definitely the number two, and i would say he's built this nationwide campaign, raised the money, he's a navy veteran, governor of a very popular state in florida. the problem is, is that he cannot break the toxic trance that former president donald trump has. i'm not trying to be disrespectful but that contrast, when you talk about president biden versus former president trump, when president biden can say the last three years, yes, inflation has a mention, 9%, now down to 3%. unemployment level lowest in decades. >> sandra: still significantly above where the president took office and consumer price up 16%, gas prices

for doug burgum it was shooting hoops. this time it did not work out entirely as he had hoped. >> dana: let's hope it is a minor injury for him and an update this morning during "america's newsroom" and bring it to you. >> bill: really interesting guy. we've had him on a couple times. he made a lot of money in the private sector and then went into public life and has done what many in north dakota consider to be a great job. >> dana: a farmer too boot. he has a lot to talk about and hope he is able to make it on stage tonight. >> bill: 14 past the hour from milwaukee. let's move to this now. check it out. >> president biden: the financial times and the "wall street journal" called my plan bidenomics. i'm not sure they meant it in a totally complimentary way at the time but guess what? it's working. >> bill: okay. eight candidates on stage tonight. we beg would differ. they all want to turn the page on bidenomics. can they sell their own plan to the american people? former mitch mcconnell, josh holmes have a lot of ideas on

one of the candidates, north dakota governor doug burgum will not be at 100 percent physically. he had to go to the hospital, actually, after injuring his leg playing basketball. he appeared in the media area this afternoon on crutches. but will be on the debate stage tonight. correspondent bill melugin is here in milwaukee tonight with the final countdown to the big event. good evening, bill. >> bill: bret, good evening to you. here we go. candidate walk throughs are officially done. all of them are getting ready for tonight in their own unique way. some of them are listening to music, trying to get fired up others are trying to stay relaxed and loose. they know what is on the line tonight. they know it's a huge opportunity, and they are looking to shake up this race. >> north dakota governor doug burgum on crutches in the spin room with a torn achilles tendon. he doesn't plan to let the injury stop him from debating tonight. >> if you are going to lead this country you ought to be able to stand on one leg for two hours. it's not dancing with the stars. i moan, come on. >> mean

>> no, look, there's no question that governor burgum, who is a billionaire, is gaming the rules.es. he's not outside the rules, he's not complaining about if rules. he said, look, if this is what the deal is, i'm going to meet it. and the rules included having enough recognition to have a certain percentage of votes and put in the polls and have enough donors. so he met them. you can't complain if an entrepreneur who's very aggressive decides he will do, within the rules, be creative. now, whether or not he has a future, i don't know. he has very strong opinions. he was probably very frustrated on "meet the press" the other day when 8 of the 9 questions were about trump, and he's there, he's trying to talk about what governor burgum will do for america. and the nbc moderator kept coming back again and again to donald trump, and that's what i hope will not happen tonight. cheryl: let's hear from the eight candidates that are going to be on that stage and what they have to say to to the american people. by the way, i do want to ask you about the former president. this georgia case,

burgum and then tim scott and we will get your take on some of this.ch. >> there's only 19,855 authorized people from the border patrol. but they are not all staffed because the biden administration does not in forge law enforcement. and administration wanted to put 87,000 people in the irs as opposed to giving the money that we need to our own border pa patrol. >> let's fire the 87,000 irs agents and higher or double the number of border patrol agents. i just left yuma, arizona, about two weeks ago. the most pressing need of the american people from a national security standpoint is our southern border. it has led to the death of 70,000 americans because of fentanyl. plus, 6 million illegal crossings since president biden has taken office. >> the president of the united states has got to use all available powers as commander-in-chief to protect our country and to protect the people. so when they are coming across, is, we are going to use lethal force. >> trace: and, you know, to see me here is that they made very clear -- made very clear, the problem

most of america doesn't know who doug burgum is.the job of a campaign to try to explain to people. when i was in business, and we were a start-up and started with ten kids in north dakota and built a 2,000 -- you know, a billion dollar company. the first trade show i went to there were 64 companies there. we didn't start out by saying we think the guys in the lead have all these problems. we talked about what we could do for the customer and what we could do for our partners and what we could do to improve their lives and doing the same thing here because when you're starting where we're starting right now, we have to talk about what we can do to get this economy running instead of crawling. how we can solve energy. everybody is paying too much for their gas and energy, and we're empowering foreign dictators. china imports 10 million barrels of oil a day, and we send leaders over there and don't even talk about it. it's not just independence. it could be american energy independence. we could have an unstable world and every questio

doug burgum is a billionaire apparently used to work at microsoft.good to have business people who know how to run things, that a been executives before, they know what they're doing. it's good to have them in the lineup. last word to you. >> totally right, that is of course the appeal of donald trump in 2016, he was not a longtime politician but someone who could manage things, all of us in new york remember that he took on redoing walnut ring, sound like a small thing but that was good to take 20 years and he got it done in six months. someone who can comment and make our government function better i say here here. by the way i agree i think doug burgum is an interesting candidate. stuart: he is indeed and we will hear more from him tonight i hope. liz peek, thanks a lot, will see you again real soon. we will be watching the debate at 9:00 p.m. eastern in just a reminder fox business will simulcast this debate. vivek ramaswamy, were back to him. he got into a heated exchange with cnn caitlin collins. >> is on a sugar high, now you have cnn a wide-r

in terms of politics, just in, we have a burgum bulletin. doug burgum will take the debate stage tonight. he was injured in a pickup basketball game and had to be taken to the hospital. so with or without burgum, the debate will take place and it will take place in milwaukee which is in wisconsin, which is no coincidence because the republican convention is there, too. also not a coincidence, why? cnn's data reporter harry is with us now. wisconsin seems important, harry. >> wisconsin is very person, mr. berman. so i want to give you an understanding. wisconsin is the tipping point and what do i mean by that, exactly? okay. say that we shifted the national vote back in 2020 say by .3 percentage points more republican. what would we be looking at at the electoral college vote and we'd be looking at the republican candidate getting 262. the democratic candidate getting 266 and that would mean that wisconsin, whoever won wisconsin would be the winner of the presidential election and this idea of this tipping point state, that is wisconsin being

burgum will not be in the debate. burgum has serious name recognition problems.k todd asked him was the election legitimate, fair question. burgum said he couldn't afford to take a position. >> i hear you on that, but it is interesting that you don't want to share your opinion. i think some voters will be frustrated by that. >> well, chuck, again, everybody is at a different place. if i had 100% national name recognition, if i had run for president before, if i was living in a major media market and everybody in the country knew me, that would be a different spot. but i know from the private sector, when we were launching our little company that we then built over a period of time into a billion company, you don't start out by attacking the market share leader. you start by telling people what you've got to offer. you don't have a basis to launch that. there will be segment after segment on every channel this morning, all the pundits lined up and i'm not running for pundit. i'm running for president. >> the republican debate is wednesday evening. what trump said

the fact that burgum can actually be up, that is impressive.d for him. >> well, he is fighting through it. we will see tonight. let's get to this fox news alert, laura: president biden is speaking out in advance of the g.o.p. debate. here he is from lake tahoe. >> i don't know enough to know the answer. i've been working out for the last hour and a half. [laughter] >> laura: awhat's amazing the media is still trying to salvage his drive by in maui though. in the wake of all the fires, raymond. >> then he spent about two hours with people, community members, survivors, first responders, at that civic center where he spent time with people one-on-one, we are told. some saying that they were grateful that he took that time to meet with them. >> laura: some saying. >> what they didn't show you, laura, were those touching photos of the president literally sleeping during his visit with survivors or the maui residents who didn't want him there at all. and then there was this empathetic moment when he spoke to fire firefighters who tried to save their

one of the candidates, doug burgum, suffered an injury on tuesday while playing basketball.rived at the venue on crutches a while ago. joining me to discuss these developments is anthony. if we can start with the north dakota governor, what is his status? is he going to take part tonight? >> p is year ended the walk-through on crutches. it appears he will be participating in the debate. there will be 8 people on stage. donald trump was offered a spot but five. larry elder wanted to be on is filing a complaint doug burgum will be there if he can. >> the stakes are high. >> obviously they want to make a first impression. ron desantis was viewed as a consensus guide behind donald trump for much of this year but he has been following back recently. that will be an interesting thing to watch. and donald trump will cast a shadow. everybody will have to talk about him and there will be friction with people like chris christie, who has been critical of him, and vivek ramaswamy, who is been reductive. and ukraine and what happened with the plane crash and also you will have individua

by helping democrats launder doug burgum donations directly into his opponent's pocket, doug burgum made. this is the mad, mad world of republican debates. and yes, it is hard to see any legitimacy in this process. and that is before you even get to the biggest problem of all for this debate, the absence of the party front runner. by all accounts, the rnc and the host, fox news, have been begging trump to participate in this debate, but not only has trump refused to show up, he's also refused to meet the debate criteria. trump has said firmly, he will not sign the party's loyalty proud to support whoever is the nominee in november. what does it say about the state of this race that trump is thumbing his nose at both his party and the television channel that helped make him president? we're going to have more on that with brian stelter, coming up next. ♪♪ this painful, blistering rash can disrupt your life for weeks. a pain so intense, you could miss out on family time. the virus that causes shingles is likely already inside of you. if you're 50 years or older, ask your doctor or pharmaci

you don't get any drama with senator tim scott or with governor burgum. are finding out he's actually the governor of north dakota and a real person. i think if anything, i will be watching to see how well they do as the state fair goes on and as we start focusing on iowa. i do think -- i hope, that the republican party faithful will leave the drama behind. fine, stick with conservatives, a conservative who cares about american democracy and the foundations of our democracy. that's what i would like to see and it seems to me right now that senator tim scott and governor burgum are those two people. amna: is iowa the place where one of the other candidates could break through? david: it should be. covering iowa and the state fair used to be one of my favorite things to do in politics. i think it was 1999, i saw the last supper carved out of butter.

>> i feel terrible for doug burgum, it's like a nightmare to injure yourself the day before. i hope he convalesces quickly. if you look at the order of candidates on the stage, the few folks in the middle are ron desantis and vivek ramaswamy. he has made his mark through podcast sps earned media, but most americans still have not seen or heard from him. tonight is going to be a massive opportunity for him. i think the second candidate i saw tonight as a great opportunity for is doug burgum who is also very, very low name i.d., he has a message that would appeal to a lot of folks who haven't heard from him. i hope doug makes the stage. i think this is going to be a story between ron and vivek. >> that will be interesting. so jennifer, donald trump will not be on that debate stage. nbc news reports that fox news will be limiting the amount of press passes for donald trump's campaign team tonight in milwaukee. fox is the host of tonight's debate. will the debate stage tonight reflect where the future of the republican party is headed? >> well, first, let me just be very clear. d

doug burgum, by the way, is far stage right. playing basketball this morning he tore his achilles tendon. he showed up in the green room earlier today on crutches. i did not see him on crutches. it looked to he had some sort of leg brace on. >> compared to what the men and women in blue do for us, he said this was nothing. we are back with our panel. brit hume, trey gowdy. what about trump not being here tonight. how do they deal with that? >> i guess the pretaped interview with tucker carlson for presentation on twitter. i am interesting to see how that will go and whether any news is made out of that. it is risky to skip a debate. we saw what happened to ronald reagan win he skipped the iowa debate in 1980. he lost the state and propelled george h.w. bush to the lead for a time. ronald reagan eventually overtook him and won the nomination. i don't think george h.w. bush would have been president if he hadn't won iowa in 1980. he wouldn't have gotten the vice presidential nomination. he had a foothold in the race and stayed in

will doug burgum be on the stage. we have new information right now about what happened in the server ty of his injury. a source tells me last night that the governor suffered a high-grade tear to his achilles. he did it while playing pickup basketball with his staff. it required a trip to the emergency room and is using crutches to walk. my source described burgum as a life-long athlete. he's not a stranger to pain. he remains focused on the debate and gutting it out tonight is a serious consideration. he's going to test if that's possible when he comes right here behind me. he's going to come to the forum to do a walk-through this afternoon. his possible absence really may shrink the stage. but donald trump's absence really presents every single candidate with an essential choice. do they spend their time talking about the front runner, or the man lakely to be on the other end of the ballot in 2024 of november? that is joe biden. cnn's david chalian is lye with me here in milwaukee. nice to see you here. what are yo

. >> i thought doug burgum actually tried to get in on china. sitting there listening and thinking we are a few hours in, it felt like a few hours and we still have a robust discussion of china. if you think about waiting the general election i think republicans did themselves a disservice. the number one issue discussed based upon time was not china when it should be it was abortion seven minutes 54 seconds. i don't necessarily agree with most if not all the democrat positions on abortion that is my personal religious belief but i say they win the messaging on abortion every single time. if you get a spent seven minutes and 54 seconds of your precious airtime on abortion you better be right and winning the issue, i don't know if they did last night and that gives democrats a feather in their cap. cheryl: the biden campaign was sending out multiple statements and e-mails as the debate was going which we expect from their war room and milwaukee and will talk about that as well. we're just getting started we are following the first gop debate all
