Trump's busiest surrogate

💥 Donald Trump's campaign has sent North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum to at least 10 different states to campaign with or for the former president, Axios has learned.

• The campaign's frequent deployment of Burgum to swing and Democratic-leaning states the Trump campaign wants to put in play has set Burgum apart from most contenders vying to be Trump's running mate.
• Trump has said he plans to name his VP pick next month.

🐘 This week, Burgum will be in Michigan for a meet-and-greet with the state's Republican Party, and in Wisconsin to campaign for Trump-endorsed congressional candidate Tony Wied.

🚀 Zoom in: The visits will be the latest in a long series of Trump campaign stops for Burgum, who briefly ran for the White House but quickly endorsed the former president after dropping out of the primary race in December:

• On March 9, Burgum spoke at the Collier County GOP dinner in Naples, Fla.
• On March 16, he spoke at the Clark County GOP Party Convention in Nevada.
• On April 13, he spoke at a Virginia GOP Dinner.

• Twelve days later, Burgum spoke at a Cheshire County GOP dinner in New Hampshire.
• On May 12, Burgum flew with the former president to a rally in Wildwood, N.J., and made brief remarks before Trump took the stage.
• On May 17, he opened for Trump at a Minnesota GOP dinner.
• The next day, Burgum spoke at a Vermont GOP luncheon.
• On May 25, he spoke at the North Carolina GOP convention
• From June 6-8, Burgum accompanied Trump in California for fundraisers in San Francisco, Beverly Hills and Newport Beach. He later flew with Trump from California to Nevada.
