Republican presidential candidate Gov. Doug Burgum dodged a question on whether, if elected, he would issue a hypothetical pardon to President Trump, The Hill reports.
Said Burgum: “If you want to ask someone about pardoning President Trump, I mean, ask Biden. He could do it right now, and then the nation can get back and focusing on the things that do matter the most to the most number of Americans.”
