The latest nominee for overwhelming loyalty to the former President is MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell. Here’s WaPo’s Aaron Blake:
On his show Tuesday, Lindell indicated that he’s going to turn his crack team of voter-fraud investigators on DeSantis’s win in the 2022 midterms. The purported reason? The margin of victory was just too big — particularly in Miami-Dade County. (The unstated but more likely reason? DeSantis is a growing threat to Trump.) …
“I don’t believe it,” Lindell said, of DeSantis’s win there. “So it’s just going to show everybody — just like we always tell you about Democrats where they stole their elections … I’m going to find out if Dade County — what happened there.”
In an interview, Lindell told the Bulwark that “a Republican hasn’t won Dade County like DeSantis did,” calling it a “deviation” and saying he wanted to find out “if there was problems with the election, things with the machine or whatever.”
Knocking out confidence in the most noteworthy GOP district victory of 2022 certainly qualifies Lindell for a Landgrebe nomination, even if he finds something; it places loyalty to an incompetent and supremely narcissistic personality over loyalty to the Party to which he belongs (I assume). Blake’s article goes on to note that Miami-Dade County has a history of vote splitting, which I presume to mean that a poor Democratic candidate gets their ass handed to them by these voters.
And good for them. Blind political loyalty by voters to a specific Party is destructive to the political health of the USA.
So congrats, Mike. Time has expired on the 2022 election, and if you find a major problem, GOP voters will become discouraged.
