MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell is now accusing Satan of rigging the 2020 presidential election against Donald Trump.
Lindell made the comments while speaking outside a Denver courthouse on Monday at the start of his defamation trial filed by former Dominion Voting Systems employee Eric Coomer.
“When people ask me that, you’ve never heard me over the last four years bashing the Democrats,” Lindell said, according to the Daily Beast. “The people that did this to our country, I believe it’s four: it’s the uniparty, the Deep State, Globalists, and the CCP.”
“We’re in a battle of biblical proportions, of evil and good. This isn’t a party thing. This is a thing for our country and our world,” Lindell added. “And when you say who’s behind it all? Satan, there’s one. You know, this is a nation that turned its back on God.”
Coomer alleged that Lindell, a prominent promoter of election conspiracy theories, targeted him specifically in his attack against Dominion, when he said “Eric, the Dominion guy,” rigged the election against Trump in an “Antifa conference call.”
Lindell plans to take the stand in his trial. He told Rolling Stone that his testimony will “help save our country,” adding “I want these [voting] machines gone!”
Lindell’s financial and legal problems have been piling up ever since he started promoting the debunked conspiracy theory that the 2020 presidential election was stolen from Trump.
He is facing billion dollar defamation lawsuits from voting machine companies Dominion and Smartmatic after accusing them of working with Democrats to rig the 2020 election. Last year, he was ordered to pay a software engineer $5 million after losing his own 2021 contest challenging experts to debunk his election fraud data. Lindell was also dropped by his attorneys over unpaid fees. He has since acquired a new legal team.
Additionally, several big-box retailers, including Walmart, MyPillow’s biggest distributor, has pulled its products from their shelves. And Fox News stopped running MyPillow ads on their network because Lindell owes them around $7.8 million in advertising fees.
Fox News has reached their own settlement of $787 million with Dominion over 2020 election lies promoted on their airwaves by the network’s biggest stars.
