THE APEX TIMES
In remarks reported Wednesday, President Donald Trump said he is endorsing MyPillow founder Mike Lindell as the Republican candidate for Minnesota governor, praising Lindell’s work ethic and “love” for the state.
President Donald Trump said Wednesday that he is endorsing Mike Lindell, the MyPillow chief executive and founder, as the Republican candidate for Minnesota governor, according to reporting tied to The Epoch Times. The announcement was described as Trump’s stated endorsement for Lindell ahead of Minnesota’s gubernatorial election.
The report says Trump characterized Lindell as “one of ‘America’s greatest and most hard working Patriots’” and added that Lindell “truly loves Minnesota,” language Trump used in connection with his endorsement. Trump also said Lindell “will be SPECTACULAR!!!” in the remarks as described by the outlet.
The Epoch Times report, as summarized in the Zero Hedge item, framed the endorsement as part of Trump’s effort to back a Republican nominee for Minnesota’s top state office. It did not provide additional detail in the supplied record about Lindell’s nomination status at the state or party level, such as formal party endorsement votes or ballot filing milestones.
Neither the supplied Zero Hedge item nor the included summary provides documentation in the form of a White House transcript, a campaign filing, or an official Minnesota Republican Party statement. As a result, the account in this report is limited to what Trump said in the cited reporting and how it was described.
For Minnesota voters and state party officials, the practical effect of a presidential endorsement typically depends on how it is followed up with campaign activity, messaging, and ballot access, which are not detailed in the supplied materials. The endorsement also highlights how Trump’s national profile can intersect with state-level contests, particularly when the endorsed candidate comes from the business world.
In the absence of primary documentation in the supplied record, additional confirmation would be needed from the original remarks, an official White House communication, or Minnesota party records to verify the full context, timing, and whether Trump’s endorsement is aligned with any formal state party nomination process.
