Public Advocate to President Trump: Doug Burgum As VP is disaster!
"Dear President Trump, Please do not nominate Doug Burgum as Vice-president. He's a rino moderate that will sabatoge your conservative agenda and set in concrete a betrayal of pro-family values started by the Party Platform disaster. Nobody believe's Burgum's latest act to be a conservative since he just ran for president pretending to be Mitt Romney -- with the support of Mitt Romney Republicans-- as a never Trump candidate," says Eugene Delgaudio, president of Public Advocate.
In a nationwide online message to supporters, Delgaudio said (in part)
"Mr.
Trump
should
not
nominate
Doug
Burgum
as
his
vice-presidential
running
mate.
Gov.
Burgum
is
a
moderate
at
best
with
deep
ties
to
radical
socially
liberal
parts
of
our
country.
As
governor,
he
has
actually
banned
Public
Advocate
from
operating
in
North
Dakota!
His
administration
has
created
so
many
insane
regulations
that
I
cannot
mail
or
phone
call
into
the
entire
state.
The
Homosexual
Lobby
is
pushing
Burgum
onto
Trump
because
they
know
he
will
pull
the
next
Trump
Administration
away
from
the
pro-Family
Movement.
I
wouldn't
be
surprised
if
those
Log
Cabin
megadonors
have
promised
the
Trump
campaign
another
fortune
in
donations
if
he
picks
Burgum.
But
there's
still
time
there
too.
In
2015,
President
Trump
ignored
Public
Advocate's
dire
warnings
about
Mike
Pence
being
a
spineless
coward
who
would
sell
us
all
out
in
a
heartbeat
-
and
Trump
paid
a
heavy
price.
But
by
January
2016,
Trump
listened
closely
when
we
warned
him
about
Judge
William
Pryor
-
who
was
at
the
time
the
front
runner
to
be
Trump's
first
Supreme
Court
nominee.
Trump
had
already
learned
from
his
first
mistake
and
listened
that
time,
pivoting
to
Neil
Gorsuch
instead.
Now
we
have
to
steer
him
away
from
Burgum
to
any
of
the
other
leading
conservative
candidates.
This
is
how
Trump
can
show
us
his
commitment
to
the
pro-Family
Movement."
said
Delgaudio.

"We're normal," said Rounds, adding: "It's not a hard hard-right. We're Ronald Reagan Republicans
In July 2020, Burgum called the 2020 Republican platform "divisive and divisional" on LGBT issues.
"During
his
2016
campaign
(FOR
GOVERNOR)
he
described
himself
as
a
moderate
on
social
issues
"Burgum coming across as one of the less-Trumpy Republicans in the presidential primary........."
Unlike others who have angled to be Trump's running mate, Burgum is not a firebrand. He is not an anti-woke crusader and launched his presidential campaign with a pledge to eschew "anger, yelling, infighting," instead saying he would "listen with respect" and "talk things out." In his campaign launch video 11 months ago, Burgum was shown riding horses, repairing a barbed wire fence and eating around a campfire.
Burgum, unlike Pence and Scott, who frequently met with Christian ministers and quoted scripture on the stump, did not go out of his way during his presidential run to court conservative evangelical voters. And Burgum as a presidential candidate largely shied away from social issues, instead focusing primarily on economic measures.
