"up to the task."
""These people went after him, they went after his company," Trump said of Lindell. "They did that with me, too, but at least I knew what I was getting into. He fought like hell. That guy deserves to be governor of Minnesota.""
"I did not take that as an endorsement. It's a shoutout."
Minnesota has not elected a Republican governor in nearly 20 years; the last conservative victory came with Tim Pawlanty in 2002 and 2006. Since 2010, the Democratic-Farmers-Labor Party has held statewide political control. Mike Lindell, MyPillow CEO and prominent MAGA supporter, announced his intention to run for governor in 2026 and framed his campaign against Democratic Governor Tim Walz, accusing Walz of defrauding millions via pandemic-era welfare programs. Lindell faces a crowded Republican primary that includes Lisa Demuth and Scott Jensen. Former President Trump offered praise for Lindell at a rally but stopped short of a formal endorsement.
