MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell was the first of Donald Trump’s supporters to take the stage on Saturday at a rally in Arizona where the former president and a legion of acolytes dedicated to his false claims about 2020 sought to exact political revenge on their enemies. “When was the last time you saw anyone on Fox talk about the 2020 election?” he asked. He also had criticism for Arizona’s governor, Doug Ducey, a Republican whom Mr Lindell faulted for insufficient loyalty to Mr Trump and “obstruction” of the former president’s attempts to overturn his defeat in the state. Calling him “rotten Doug Ducey”, Mr Lindell said that the Arizona governor had worked against Trump supporters’ efforts in the state, which culminated in a third-party audit of Arizona election results authorised by the GOP-controlled state Senate; the audit eventually recognised Mr Trump had lost fair and square in Arizona. The company is currently suing Mr Lindell in a $1.3billion defamation lawsuit.
