MAGA continues to eat its own.

TEXT:

MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell is questioning whether Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) legitimately won his reelection bid in Miami-Dade County, saying on his streaming show Tuesday: “I don’t believe it.”

Lindell is a big supporter of former President Trump who has made baseless charges about electoral fraud in the past. DeSantis has emerged as perhaps the most dangerous rival to Trump in a 2024 GOP presidential primary

Trump has already announced his candidacy. DeSantis has not said if he will run for president.

Lindell specifically questioned the big victory DeSantis won in Miami-Dade County on “The Lindell Report.”

The county, which has traditionally gone for Democrats in past elections, swung for DeSantis during the Florida gubernatorial race by 11 points.

No evidence of fraud has circulated and before the election, a number of observers had pointed to the county and suggested that DeSantis had a chance to pull off a big victory.

But Lindell went after DeSantis over Miami-Dade.

“What we’re doing now is I’m going after [Miami-]Dade County and the 2022 election,” Lindell said.

"I look at deviations, everybody. That’s a deviation. I don’t believe it,” Lindell said, later adding that “I’m going to find out if [Miami-]Dade County – what happened there, because it’s a deviation from norm.”

The MyPillow CEO is being sued for defamation by Dominion Voting Systems regarding his comments about the 2020 election and their voting machines. Lindell has pushed dubious claims about the 2020 election, similar to Trump, despite the fact that no widespread fraud was found and multiple audits in different states have affirmed the states’ original results in the 2020 election.

Multiple polls show DeSantis, whose 19-point win in November was widely celebrated among Republicans during the midterms, surging past Trump.

While Republican candidates and other members of the party have often targeted election denialism claims at Democrats, the MyPillow CEO’s comments are unusually targeted at another Republican.

There's probably money making gold mine with grifting and conspiracy theory, I mean look at Alex Jones and his secret net worth after selling BS to the public for so long. Just some people are made to be serfs for others so why not take advantage of them?

Here's a hint: Mike Lindell is a pillow salesman. He doesn't represent a political movement. Paying any sort of attention like this to pillow people is why no one takes MSM seriously.

You don't understand...,your ex POTUS Donald Trump paid a lot of attention to the pillow guy, that helped get him into big trouble

weren't you guys saying mike lindell had all that evidence about the stolen election and should in fact be taken seriously??

[–] yatzo376 (7717) 2 years ago

I believe it was about hacked Dominion voting machines

[–] LogicalLeftist (869) 2 years ago

ya im still waiting on those machines he has to be released with evidence.

[–] B1cKsurN (17484) 2 years ago

How old are you?

You never answered me.

[–] LogicalLeftist (869) 2 years ago

you never answer anything.

so where's that voting machine evidence?

[–] B1cKsurN (17484) 2 years ago

I don't argue with children or trolls...I just call your asses out. You're obviously a child that doesn't know any better, or you wouldn't be hiding it.

You aren't logical, smart, nor intelligent...you're a parrot of someone else's thoughts. You require "Peer-reviewed studies" to believe anything. Zero critical thinking skills.

Why would I ever waste a shred of my valuable time even trying?

[–] yatzo376 (7717) 2 years ago

you're an idiot

[–] LogicalLeftist (869) 2 years ago

yes when it comes to science I require peer-reviewed studies.. like umm... all scientists..........

you had time to write multiple paragraphs, yet can't provide evidence. nice cop out coward.

Reminds me of how tRump also claimed that the Republican primaries/ caucuses that he lost were rigged against him. The man simply cannot handle a loss.

Whenever you see 'baseless claims of election fraud" that's when you can quit reading the state sponsored propaganda.

[–] yatzo376 (7717) 2 years ago

The only time you see ''baseless claims of election fraud" is when a wacky Republican loses

Meanwhile Russia Gate went on for four years without even circumstantial evidence.
