Tim Walz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>&#8220;He can do it! Nobody has sacrificed more than Mike Lindell in fighting for our country, especially when it comes to Election Integrity,&#8221; Trump continued. &#8220;He truly deserves everything he gets \u2013 He will MAKE MINNESOTA GREAT AGAIN!!!&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Trump concluded with an unequivocal endorsement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>&#8220;MIKE LINDELL HAS MY COMPLETE AND TOTAL ENDORSEMENT \u2013 HE WILL NOT LET YOU DOWN. Good Luck Mike!!!&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-x wp-block-embed-x\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"embed-x\"><blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Thank you, Mr. President! I truly appreciate your confidence in me as I run to become the next Governor of Minnesota.<br><br>Support the campaign today: <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/8zZVI7H3qz\">https:\/\/t.co\/8zZVI7H3qz<\/a><br><br>Let&#39;s Make Minnesota Great Again! \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/n6URW7D9Or\">pic.twitter.com\/n6URW7D9Or<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Mike Lindell (@realMikeLindell) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/realMikeLindell\/status\/2077382121543651627?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 15, 2026<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.x.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The endorsement formalizes a relationship that has stretched back years. Lindell emerged as one of Trump&#8217;s most visible allies after the 2020 election, frequently appearing alongside the president, using his platform to defend Trump&#8217;s claims about election integrity, and becoming a regular presence at rallies and conservative events. His loyalty came at a steep personal and financial cost, with retailers dropping MyPillow products and voting technology companies filing high-profile defamation lawsuits against him over statements about the 2020 election.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trump has repeatedly praised Lindell for remaining loyal despite those setbacks. Even before issuing his formal endorsement, the president had publicly said last year that Lindell &#8220;deserves to be governor of Minnesota.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lindell launched his gubernatorial campaign last December, joining a crowded Republican field seeking to replace Walz, who opted against seeking another term. Walz&#8217;s administration has faced sustained criticism from Republicans over massive fraud schemes involving state-administered federal nutrition programs, allegations Trump referenced again in his endorsement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The endorsement also comes as Minnesota Republicans remain divided over their preferred nominee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While businessman Kendall Qualls secured the Minnesota GOP&#8217;s endorsement at the state convention, Lindell has continued campaigning aggressively and has remained competitive in public polling. A recent SurveyUSA\/KSTP poll showed Lindell leading the Republican primary field with 27% support, ahead of Minnesota House Speaker Lisa Demuth at 22% and Qualls at 17%, though roughly one-quarter of Republican voters remained undecided.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If Lindell captures the Aug. 11 Republican primary, he would likely face Democratic Sen. Amy Klobuchar, who entered the governor&#8217;s race after Walz stepped aside and has built a substantial fundraising advantage. Multiple early surveys have shown Klobuchar beginning the general election campaign as the favorite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trump nevertheless argued Republicans can prevail, while again alleging election problems have hurt the GOP in Minnesota.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a separate Truth Social post Wednesday, the president blasted Klobuchar as &#8220;lightly respected&#8221; and accused her of knowing about the fraud allegations surrounding Minnesota&#8217;s child nutrition reimbursement programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>&#8220;I have gotten to know Klobuchar over the years, and find her to be equally as incompetent as Walz, and probably equally as corrupt in that, as a high Government Official from Minnesota, she knew everything that was going on,&#8221; Trump wrote.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>He also claimed, &#8220;If the Elections in Minnesota weren&#8217;t RIGGED, any Republican could win, but they were, and that is why nobody has won there since Richard Nixon many years ago. I thought I won it all three times, only to be disappointed in the end.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Minnesota&#8217;s Republican primary is scheduled for Aug. 11, with the general election set for November.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class= \"house-ad\"><center><p class= \"sponsored\">Sponsored<\/p><strong><span style=\" color:#ff0004\" class=\" has-inline-color has-text-align-center\"><a href= \"https:\/\/secure.winred.com\/trump-national-committee-jfc\/lp-prsp-email-supporter-status-v2-s1-db?utm_term=[trackingcode]&#038;source_code=[trackingcode]\">Have you abandoned MAGA too?
