the burgum one is interesting.ve, looking back at 2020. he won't even really acknowledge that the 2020 election was, you know, resolved appropriately, right? he is out there kind of doing this dance of, oh, he's not doing the crazy my pillow conspiracies by the high-class conspiracies. you know, we don't know how covid changed things. we had these drop-boxes, all this nonsense. these folks all know better. you can imagine a different scenario where donald trump was not in their lives, where they would not be on tv, you know, trying to undermine our democracy. trump has corrupted all of them. i think it is extremely dangerous, and it shows just how far and how deep the rock goes. somebody like doug burgum, you know, who is sort of a generic, educated republican, not a maga republican, is going to go along with this, imagine what people who are real, true believers are thinking about, you know, the election lies. we saw the results of that in 2021. >> tim, we mentioned earlier in the show, a split screen, a rare mome

so why burgum? so harry enten is with me to go beyond the numbers so i mentioned he ran for president. he did run for president. >> really successful businessman but he didn't get traction there. >> he did not become a household name, but now suddenly a lot of bus, a lot of buzz, you know, you were mentioning. i look back at the polls more than 70% of voters didn't know who the heck he was, even when he was running for president, including north of 70% of republic publications. yet, if you look at the odds of doug burgum being donald trump's pick for vp. look at this according to the betting markets a month ago, it was just 3%, then may 1st, it was 13%. now it is 24%. he has gone up eightfold in only a month period of time. now you may look at that 24%. you say, oh, that's not that high but that's actually tops for any of the potential trump vp picks according to the betting market, odds, he's beating out tim scott. he's beating out jd vance. he is now number one according to the better and that i t

doug burgum. what does he bring?you remember a vp outside of lbj that actually helped out a presidential ticket because i'm going through my head and i really can't think of one i can think of at least one who harmed the ticket. dan quayle, back in 1988 and 90 to the number one rule when it comes to vp picks is do no harm, do no harm. doug burgum might be one of the most boring guys. a lot i've and if you look in north dakota where the voters know him best, he has basically been this guy who's been able to reach across the middle. take a look at this. this is voters in north dakota who think that trump or burgum are conservative, 72% of north dakota instinct, trump's inks conservative versus 44% of those who know doug burgum best he is the type of pick that trump is trying to say. i'm not going to eliminate the middle. i'm not going to distract. i'm going to be safe. and that is why doug burgum is on the rise at this point? >> yeah. well, that's really interesting. only 44% would say is conservative, which as you poi

[laughter] uh... burgum's in the veep-stakes because recently one of the previous candidates, let's say, took themselves out of the running. i'm talking about south dakota governor kristi noem, seen here about to rap about plumbing. earlier this week, noem willingly revealed that she... how do i put this delicately? murdered a puppy in cold blood. some in trump's orbit have tried to defend noem, such as don jr. fiancee and big mouth billy bass that only says slurs, kimberly guilfoyle. yesterday, gui

, governor burgum. thank you so much for joining us. so you were there with donald trump last night at mar-a-lago, where he claimed biden was like the gestapo, referring to the nazi secret police. are you comfortable with the presumptive republican presidential nominee comparing the biden administration to the gestapo well, jake, first great to be with you and i would say yesterday we had an opportunity to listen to the president talked for 90 minutes without a teleprompter covering a wide range of topics and largely very upbeat because if the election was held today, trump would be winning and relative to the reference you're discussing, i mean, there was a a short comment deep into the thing that wasn't really central to what he was talking about. >> but i understand when and i think americans understand a majority of americans feel like the trial that he's in right now is politically motivated. and if it was anybody else, this trial wouldn't even be happening. so i understand that he feels like that

burgum since the primary, he's gone to these rallies. he's been a faithful endorser of president trump. he's a really rich guy with an ability to raise money and help the ticket in that way. no drama, not going to overshadow the top of the ticket. he's also not turned his dakota to pet cemetery the way his friend from the south has, which is always a bonus when you're not making news for things of that nature. so no bargain, burgum is terrible. >> so sad, i still worse. rip cricket, a burnham's rising but there's also other great choices. >> this is one of the areas that campaign where i think trump has an embarrassment of riches. tim scott, to me, still makes a ton of sense. marco rubio, the voter registration issue notwithstanding for two floridians, i think would be great. vance's great. i mean, there's a lot of defensible and politically good choices here, but everybody is talking about burgum right now. and i know he's out doing some media and making the rounds and wages cards at the end of the day. i mean, the money factor piece of

and that's why i think burgum did poorly today. it's because burgum was unconvincing. i mean, if you look closely, you can see him blinking in morse code. i don't really believe the things i am saying right? and he wants someone to fully commit and i think what kristi noem was doing in that book was, pardon the expression dog whistling. >> and i'll the donald trump, that on the the advice of people like corey lewandowski, that she was willing to know each other there are real guy that affect keep going and that you have to prove that you're willing to say and do anything on behalf. the messy, ugly stuff on behalf of donald trump, if you want to be as vip and i think that was the theory. >> so we only have a minute left. but speaking of a messy, ugly we still have hope hicks testified on friday and trump wanted to know how it was playing. this is about the stormy daniels and just my thoughts and opinion about the story versus having the story a different kind of story before the campaign had michael not may paid that, made that payment. and i think mr. trump's opinion w

i'm governor doug burgum along with our congressman and vivek. we're here to offer observations firsthand. one thing we have all known is that this is a sham trial but we have an opportunity to see it up close and personal. you can see it is a scam trial. when you have a judge that is a donor to biden, prosecutors who are supporters of biden, and then you have got relatives of the judge that are benefiting financially directly from this trial, that information. and then you have the star witness is a serial perjurer. you have to ask yourself, what is this all about? the only conclusion it is election interference tying up the president from being out on the campaign trail. and we know from the polls that have come out even from the new york times this week, president trump is leading all over the country. and he conclusion you can draw from that is the american people have already acquitted donald trump because the things that they are concerned about, inflation, crime, the border, the economy, all of these things president trump is leading by hu

i'm going to go with doug burgum.e said, he put shareholders above people's children. that should tell you everything you need to know about this man. he said if you care about your country and your shareholders and then your children. okay. that is my pick. >> tough to beat that one. who are you going to go with questions >> i love that we are calling him cancun ted cruz. that is because he fled to cancun during an ice storm in texas. but, i do, i have to go with doug burgum. i think that the fact that he is so willing to say like, to play the billionaire card, which is not a cartoon lisi played. hey guys, we are all in this together. i really believe in billionaire unity. i think that that is amazing, honestly. >> the republican party still pretends they are the party of the people. then you have people like begging billionaire doug burgum coming out here and saying he's worried about the shareholders. this is not a party that cares about working-class or poor americans. >> if they are, they are doing a very good jo

governor doug burgum, very grateful to have you on this consequential day. thanks very much for your time. >> thank you, casey all right. >> if it's friday, it must be smerconish here to discuss all things trump and maybe a few other topics. michael smerconish, host of cnn's smerconish. michael good morning. your reaction? gen. to what the governor had to say, they're particularly i mean, he's kinda saying, well, he doesn't get americans are going to care. what do you think i think that was a preview of coming attractions offered in a very calm and level-headed manner. >> what you heard from doug burgum, i think is what you're about to hear from the trump campaign. writ large, although probably with more emotion and the primary point that they're going to make is that none of this solves what ails biden, namely acuity issues the border and as he stated inflation, nobody knows the impact of this yet, and i've studied all the polling data that preceded the verdict and those individuals who said why might have pause, i might reconsider. i just think the dust ne

i asked doug burgum if donald trump instructed him to do so, which would violate the gag order.e said no, that he was it's just here as a volunteer started to keep harping on this, but we just showed in another photo a little wider shot or the one we just showed before that guy popped up in a red dye. that's cory mills of florida, byron donalds. >> me obviously reading there are notes written on the back of those times yeah. can i say your you've obviously have a lot of advising democratic candidates for president. >> if you were advising the democratic nominee right now, would you tell them to go harder on? donald trump's pending legal troubles? put aside this hush money case. i know it has limited appeal, but how about the january 6 indictment? the classified documents, do you think joe biden should be doing more and more aggressively on that? >> look, i think that when you look at the people that he needs to get, i think the people who feel strongly about that issue, at least at this juncture, he's getting those people. he may be able to persuade so i'm at the end on this, th

>> you spoke to doug burgum about the trial? because they're let's just play that when you've got a a judge that donated to joe biden when you've got prosecutors that supported joe biden, when you've got the judge's family members that are benefiting financially as democrat operatives. >> and then when you've got as you just said, on the lead in this whole trial, rests on the credibility of someone who spent three hours morning describing a great detail how we lied to a grand jury, how we lied to a congress, and how he lied in in court cases. and so so this is just a tough thing. i mean, i prosecution's got a tough job to try to build their case on someone who's a serial perjure the one thing that sitting there listening to michael cohen testify, which is of course a you're referring to. i mean, donald trump hired michael cohen so far everything that you just said, i mean, that is the person donald trump chose to be his his personal attorney well, i think yes, that's true. >> the he did hire them, but i think that you'll win the

let's talk possible trump running mates north dakota governor doug burgum is a rumor to be on trump's vp shortlist and listen to what trump said about burgum last night you won't find anybody better than this gentleman in terms of his knowledge of their he made his money in technology, but he probably knows more about energy than anybody i know so get ready for something, okay. >> just get ready. but doug burgum has been incredible do you think governor burger would be a smart vp pick for trump? >> is this something that trump says, look, we've got something coming that's an interesting choice to me. >> i mean, i respect to governor burgum. >> he's an incredible business manner. i think the guy has a billion-dollar company, so clearly, he knows how to lead and lead potentially well. >> but when i think about what i would probably look for in a vice presidential running mate in this moment where this is going to be a close race. >> i'm not really looking for a doug burgum. i'm looking for someone like maybe brian sandoval, the former governor of nevada. he's hispanic, latino communitie

doug burgum again walking by, maybe this time to fox news. we have been added to the list, katy. we'll see if he comes back. i know you had the chance to speak with him a moment yourself. the list of potential vp picks is quite smile at this point. governor burgum, ever since he was the first former 2024 rival of donald trump to endorse him there two weeks before the iowa caucus, he has been somebody who has been very much in his corner and a surrogate, including here in the middle of his criminal trial. >> i'm saying bring the governor over to vaughn's camera right now. we'll see if this message gets answered. vaughn hillyard, thank you so much. and what is the jury dealing with behind closed doors, and how are they going about lining up the complicated instructions from the judge with the evidence in front of them? msnbc's katie phang is here to explain what could jam deliberations up. >>> and can supreme court justice samuel alito be forced to recuse himself from january 6th cases. what one house judiciary member says congress can do to require a recusal. to require a recusal.

you can see doug burgum rather over his right shoulder as he was speaking. with this earlier, vivek ramaswamy, eric and laura crump with him. content stuff obviously all behind him as he delirious -- delivered these remarks. tom, your reactions? >> sandra: >> i think the former president is taking some inspiration from all the lawyers he's been watching the past few days. 's presentation was lawyerly in nature. he made his points, he had a stack of papers that he rattled them off the evidence to support his points, he talked about his poll numbers and look, he is not wrong. the numbers are what the numbers are and we heard from many people leaning democratic that there are regular hands that biden numbers are down and at times, trump numbers are staying strong and i think the president a good point very powerfully and forcefully. i also thought it was notable that he said today was a good day. keep in mind that today was the day that the prose prosecution's star witness was in the spotlight and so the fact that content comes out after hearing everything that

jon: you mentioned doug burgum.does that suggest he is leaping ahead in the vice presidential sweepstakeses? >> i mean, anyone's guess is as good as mine on the veep stakeses. but i think it is meaningful in a couple of ways. one, burgum is ideologically a little to the left of trump, so anyone more moderate than trump would be a great choice, and i don't think it's an accident that he's here in new jersey which is a very i blue state. jon, you know, but there are others as welsh senator tim scott -- >> yes. jon: -- also campaigned for the nomination and has become a big trump surrogate and supports -- supporter. >> yes. and so this question of how supportive are you of trump's position and, you know, continued lie about the 2020 election is a big deal for people running alongside him. tim scott stood by his senate vote on that day. however, he hasn't said anything since, and so that might be one of the questions where trump wants someone that's going to support every single thing he says, and those positions are re

we are back with north dakota governor doug burgum.e is getting ready to tap you for v.p. nominee, are you ready for that? >> i think it doesn't really matter who president trump's v.p. is the guy is so strong against every demographic, as you know you covered it even tonight. winning across every segment in this country, blacks, hispanics, people under 30, he is winning and he is done with that win because, you know, he represents the strength we need on the economy, on energy, national security. where biden is weak. but i think from a standpoint of the v.p. he has a lot of choices that he can choose from, i'm certainly not campaigning for him because of that. that was never part of the equation, i just another as governor of north dakota, how bad it is for this country if joe biden is president for four more years. >> bret: you talked about energy there that's one of the things you talk about a lot. i had you on the show as a presidential candidate. >> north dakota is a huge energy state. a lot of people don't understand that and not

and we'll see doug burgum, who is interesting.ight he go from governor to vice presidential candidate with this president who is now running again? might that happen? his name is being talked about. we'll see. the surrogates are doing what the president can't do right now. yes, he can get out on the campaign trail on his days off, those types of things off of court every wednesday or whatever he can work on a weekend. not the same as being able to take on a case that he says is a sham. it's not the case because he has a pretty strict gag order and already twice the judge has threatened to throw him in jail if he breaks the gag order again. these surrogates play an important role for talking specifically about a witness like michael cohen, who lies. i mentioned it before. as he breathes. so back with our legal experts now, brett tollman and phil holloway. i'm trying to understand the positioning that michael cohen has been put in now. not just position but now he is -- it's a verb. he is having to maneuver now to get around all of

doug burgum is a second-term governor. he is fairly serious.is also fairly wealthy. that is someone who is pretty safe to put on the ticket with him. most importantly, you know, this guy is conservative but also the trump team sees him as being able to pull in some moderate voters. so they sent him to new hampshire, a place where nikki haley got more than 43% of the vote. i mean, that's fairly significant and tells you where trump and his priorities right now are. >> who isn't hot on doug burgum, sophia cai? thank you so much. appreciate the insights and the reporting. really appreciate it. >>> thank you for getting up "way too early" with us on this friday morning.

and if if he's hinting at doug burgum being lawn his less we know from our reporting that doug burgum is very high on his vp contender less so it's just something to keep in mind and another thing danny and amara that i also thought was very interesting to point out is this comes right in between, uh, to very busy weeks of trial. we had stormy daniels last week michael cohen is going to be tested testifying on monday and a big question going into saturday was, could donald trump potentially violate his gag order? will he bring up either of those witnesses even though he's not supposed to. trump, didn't go there. he didn't do that instead, he talked more generally about the indictments he is facing. he did bring up his hush money trial specifically, but he did so more to baselessly claimed that biden and democrats are the ones behind it. something we just know, of course, is not true, but i think it was interesting that he really did not delve into specifics about it again, i think because he knew he couldn't really wade anywhere that could be a potential violation of that guy. hi, gar

we talked earlier on the show, we had governor burgum on and my riff and so forth. biden strategy, mike, you know, the law fare strategy seems to be blowing up and inflation rate is gripping him even tighter and tighter and inflation actually is speeding up again. not slowing down. seems that everything is going wrong for joe biden is this is may and not november 5 and it's the assess for that and how do you see it, mike? >> if the election was held today but unfortunately it's noting held today. a lot of thing cans happen. i want to just say to hall ex's point that joe biden has gotten everything wrong in the last 50 years. here's the real trouble, at least up till the last four, five years joe biden knew what he was doing. right now we have a president that we don't think he even has a clue what he's reading off the tell prompter and decisions he's making spontaneously. every day joe biden is office and donald trump look as whole lot better to the never trampers and there's people that said -- trumpers and there's people saying i'll never vote for trump and they'r

i was sitting behind three of them today, burgum and donald and vivek and it crossed my mind. >> seanin the pri primary. this is apprentice on vp stakes. what donald trump wants is winners, test them out, who can raise money, who can message and defend me best. donald trump likes winners, he wanted america to win during presidency. he said, you are going to get of winning, you compare the vp stakes. remember when joe biden called kamala harris really boring phone call and asked her to be his vice presidential running mate? this is exciting. >> laura: so tragic. i remember. byron, i don't know, we're going to talk to ken langone coming up, big nikki haley supporter. i think he's open and we'll have a good conversation with him, big donor to gop. i think republicans are looking like, save this country. save the country. does the vice presidential pick matter more because trump will be a one-term if the if elected and would it nullify old establishment type, not old, but establ establishment type. >> another way to say it, trump would be a lame duck because he couldn'ting re-elected. as

host: that was governor burgum in new jersey. one of those people discussed as a possible vice presidential running mate for the former president. perhaps he rises to that list. you can add yours to the mix. one of the people not under consideration, at least of the former president himself, was nikki haley, who you saw during the primary process. adding in a post a couple days ago that nikki haley is not under consideration for the vp slot, "i wish her well" added from former president trump. the wall street journal editorial board took a look at nikki haley as a potential running mate and how to them she should stay in the mix. adding in a recent editorial on may 12 "ms. haley ought to be in the mix given her strong primary performance. she outlasted everyone but mr. trump and did well in debates. she has foreign policy experience and was a two term governor of south carolina. she provides a notable contrast to vice president kamala harris. conventional wisdom is that mr. trump cannot expect someone -- cannot accept someone wit

. >> well, of course he trump appeared with doug burgum over the weekend rally, which seems to suggesturger maybe arising off the list. it's certainly it does. and look, we have to remember that donald trump likes to play with us, play with everybody. this is something that he likes. the kind of who will it be, who won't be but he does it. >> it's not just by watching donald trump over the weekend with doug burgum, it's also reporting that i have from people around him. >> he really, really likes the idea of doug burgum fact that he's a business person, the fact that he is central casting, which is not nothing. >> but when it comes to donald trump and he's a nice person, he's a nice person to be with genuinely a nice guy and i'm you know, that's something that trump like right? >> unobjectionable, really. i mean, ashley else and we also saw trump over the weekend, shoot down the idea that nikki haley was anywhere on his list, right? like actually put posted about that. >> that does seem to suggest like, i mean, it seems like there's still a major opening for the biden team to go lookin

doug burgum. it was called a senior moment when it comes to israel. >> unbelievable we're in completely new territory for a president of the united states because we've always had a rule which is don't negotiate with terrorists. joe biden has gone beyond that and negotiating for the terrorists. he has put a red line for israel, for our ally, and when you think about that, think of every one of our allies around the world watching this and going wow, israel is supposed to be america's top ally and the president is threatening them? how about joe biden saying we'll keep providing weapons until you release the hostages, hamas. he should be negotiating alongside of israel. he is on the opposite side of the table. if president trump was in office right now, this would not be happening. this is joe biden's weakness on display like it was with afghanistan, like it has been around the world. he continues to lead with weakness and he is doing it for one reason. he is doing it because he is trying to get vo

seen leaving a big money fundraiser in new york overnight , including north dakota governor doug burgum. south dakota governor kristi noem, south carolina senator tim scott and entrepreneur vivek ramaswamy. tickets cost up $844,000 to support the trump campaign, as he left the event, reporters asking trump if his future vice president was there. mr. president, was your next vp in there with you tonight? he gave no response earlier, burgum and ramaswami showing solidarity with trump, attending his hush money trial, joining house speaker mike johnson and other trump surrogates at the courthouse. >> i think one thing that we've all known is this was a sham trial, but when you have an opportunity to see it up close and personal, you can see it's actually a scam trial. >> trump's former attorney michael cohen, back on the stand detailing the hush money payment to stormy daniels, saying trump told him to pay her off in exchange for her silence about their alleged sexual encounter. so it would, quote, not affect mr. trump's chances in the 2016 election. things getting combative in the cross-ex

and doug burgum. he's one. noted while doug burgum is great and he does a lot for them and is a yes man, does whatever they need for the campaign, some people are not convinced that he's ultimately going to be picked. >> burgum is also rich, which appeals to trump who needs money for his campaign. it seems like trump's not shy about making the incendiary remarks like that, but it also seems like a window into the pressure he's feeling about these trials. >> we see donald trump constantly talk about these trials publicly. the fact that he's talking about them privately indicates that his public comments are not a show. he's genuinely focused and concerned and obsessed with the legal problems he faces publicly and privately. >> thanks for starting us off this morning. good stuff as always. >>> next up here, as we just mentioned, south dakota governor christie gnome is still standing by her actions when it comes to a troubling story included in her new memoir, one about killing her puppy. we'll bring you the lates

governor doug burgum who was here also, many politicians we are today, many congressmen et cetera et cetera document some of them. we know from the poles that president trump is leading all over the country and the conclusion is un-american people who -- early acquitted president trump. i believe that is true and i believe that a large portion say this trial is a disgrace and so are the others by the way, if you look at the way they're going. take a look at on in -- with during jack's most. >>> he got caught with his hand in the cookie jar. he got caught doing things that you're not supposed to -- that's why column the range jackson and he's a deranged person represented -- graphic young congressman. this is a travesty, injustice. look around new york. new york has a lot of issues and he talks about the issues of people being killed right outside and yet we have 20 prosecutors sitting over there for what most people got almost every single legal analyst says no crime. is no crime. but we've got all the das in their and they say -- this is nothing more than an action interference. the

what are the chances trump picks burgum as vice president? >> i think they're known zero and they're the names for a couple of candidates on the ticket and seeing how they'll play and trump cares a lot about rallies and that rally in new mexico was massive and rally sizes don't matter that much who comes to votes. there's still something to be said about enthusiasm to see tens of thousands of people at jersey shore over the weekend was really something. trump values how someone plays in front of the crowd. that's one of the metrics that trump always thinks about and considers and doesn't want to be overshadowed, which is impossible to do these days and wants someone the crowds like and respond to and they go into the computer and algorithm into the brain who he'll pick and my guess is keeping all on the toes and guessing and high and rampant into july. stuart: we know the job, vice president job not going to nicky haley and trump writing that haley is not under consideration for the vice president slot but i wish her well. look at this from w

i was talking to governor burgum today fox and friends.else want to come up on stage? if you go a million dollars to charity you can be among the selection, too. two people did that. that's kind of cool. raising a lot of money. how do you see it? who is on your short list? >> unpredictable. we think at this time this 2016, i don't think too many people were calling for mike pence. not too many people expecting that. he ended up being, i think, key for trump in that election to reassure conservatives they could trust him on a range of policies. this time around doug burgum seems to be getting a lot of attention. your viewers know him. he was acquainted himself well in the governorship and remarkable business career. if you are asking who i think would be the perfect pick, it would be governor kim reynolds of iowa. she gives you everything you are looking for in terms of executive experience, solid record as governor, great on taxes, great on letting kids get back to school after the covid panic. >> dana: over the hump of her supporting desa
