Doug Burgum dropped out of the 2024 Republican presidential primary, his campaign announced on Monday.

"In community after community along this journey, we witnessed the best that America has to offer. We are deeply grateful for each and every person who supported us with their ideas, prayers, advocacy, encouragement and enthusiasm," Burgum said in a statement.

The North Dakota governor had emphasized three key issues on the trail -- the economy, energy and national security -- but failed to gain traction with GOP voters. He was polling last on the list of major candidates tracked by 538's national average and did not qualify for the most recent primary debate.

I like the guy, he and had some of the best conservative positions, especially on the energy front.

But, had no chance.

How about a position for him as Mr. Trump's Secretary of Energy?

There have been comments, many of them, to wit, where will Mr. Trump find anyone good enough to serve? Send this guy a draft notice...
