While I remain skeptical that the MN GOP in 2026 can end its near two decade losing streak in statewide elections, there is a slight opening. Reason being is that Gov. Tim Walz and AG Keith Ellison, both of whom are seeking third terms, are vulnerable due to incompetence and/or corruption.
So it would only be fitting if this guy wins the Republican nomination.

Let’s bring common sense back to Minnesota.

Look, I am heartened by Lindell's personal testimony. He talks openly about being delivered from a crack addiction when he accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior. And while his once wildly successful business MyPillow hasn't performed as well as it did a decade ago, it hasn't dampened Lindell's passion to start up and maintain faith-based recovery centers.
With all that said, if Lindell were to be the GOP candidate for Governor, he would not only lose but he would adversely affect down ballot races, meaning there's a real possibility the DFL could re-obtain a "trifecta." Given the radical leftist policies that passed in the 2023 and 2024 legislative session have crippled this state, two more years of total prog control would effectively finish off Minny. Any candidate with an "R" next to their name is extremely vulnerable in '26, even if it's one who hasn't necessarily walked in lockstep with President Donald Trump. But Lindell's nuttiest of nutty election denialism combined with his performative leg humping of Trump will be impossible for him to work around. Heck, he'd likely embrace every accusation thrown at him.
I can guarantee if Lindell decides to go to the GOP primary, there will be DFLers crossing over in an attempt to make him the general election candidate. Heck, they'll probably even fill his campaign coffers.
