What happened

President Donald Trump endorsed MyPillow founder Mike Lindell for Minnesota governor in a Truth Social post on Wednesday, calling him “one of America’s greatest and most hard working Patriots.” Lindell is running in a three-way Republican primary set for Aug. 11, with early primary voting already underway. The winner will seek to replace outgoing Gov. Tim Walz, while Democrats’ field includes Sen. Amy Klobuchar. Lindell, a Trump ally and prominent election-denial figure, built his national profile through MyPillow advertising and pro-Trump activism.
