Mike Lindell, the CEO of MyPillow and a prominent supporter of former President Donald Trump, is grappling with financial challenges as his company adjusts to changing circumstances following their claims of election rigging in the 2020 U.S. Presidential Election.
Despite persistent allegations, courts and independent legal and election experts have consistently rejected assertions of election rigging related to the 2020 election. The legal battle began shortly after the election concluded, with President Trump and his supporters, including Mr. Lindell, alleging widespread irregularities and fraud.
Numerous lawsuits seeking to overturn election results were filed in various states, but these legal challenges faced a consistent pattern of dismissals by judges across the country. Notably, the U.S. Supreme Court rejected the Texas v. Pennsylvania lawsuit in December 2020, signaling a lack of legal basis for overturning the election results.
Claims of election rigging have also been scrutinized and debunked by independent legal and election experts. Multiple audits, recounts, and investigations in key battleground states found no evidence of widespread voter fraud or irregularities that could have changed the election outcome.
Despite the lack of legal and factual support for their claims, Trump and Lindell have continued to promote their allegations through various channels, causing divisions and undermining trust in the democratic process.

Meanwhile, MyPillow, the company founded by Mike Lindell, has faced its own challenges due to his election fraud allegations. In July, MyPillow made headlines by selling a variety of equipment on the online auction site K-Bid, including vans, forklifts, sewing machines, and flat boxes. This marked a significant shift in the company’s operations.
Mike Lindell explained that MyPillow is transitioning to a business strategy focused on direct sales through television and email marketing. This shift away from traditional manufacturing operations was influenced by the fallout from Lindell’s election fraud allegations.
Lindell expressed frustration that some retailers and shopping networks distanced themselves from MyPillow following the controversy surrounding his election claims. He attributed this to what he called “cancel culture” and its impact on his business.
As part of its restructuring efforts, MyPillow decided to sub-lease some of its old manufacturing space in Shakopee, Minnesota. These changes reflect the challenges faced by the company in the wake of the election rigging allegations.
The financial difficulties faced by MyPillow serve as a reminder of the broader consequences that can arise when allegations unsupported by legal and factual evidence persist in the public discourse.
