Shaving democracy: MyPillow’s Mike Lindell takes drastic measure to blend in at DNC
MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell, an ardent supporter of former President Donald Trump, shaved his 30-year-old mustache to go undercover at the Democratic National Convention.
Lindell is one of several Republican social media influencers, also including Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk and Daily Wire columnist Matt Walsh, to observe the DNC.
“Mike Lindell finally did it,” he posted on X. “It’s been 30 years since Mike has shaved his mustache. But in order to go undercover at the DNC and deliver FrankSpeech viewers undercover footage, he finally allowed a barber to take a razor to his iconic ‘stache.”
Lindell is also known for his hard-line support for Trump’s unproven claim that he won the 2020 election and that there was significant election interference. Voting machine company Dominion sued Lindell after he promoted a theory that the company conspired with foreign powers to rig voting machines to steal the election from Trump.
Democratic content creator Knowa spotted Lindell.
Lindell was seen arguing with Knowa about recent Georgia voting news. He was heard saying, “They found 257,000 votes in Georgia that are missing from the 2020 election,” repeating claims of 2020 election fraud.
Walsh and Kirk have been spotted around the DNC floor as well.
Walsh is taking a similar path to Lindell, disguising himself with a “Kamala Harris for President” hat and “White Dudes for Harris” shirt, while changing up his hair and glasses. His disguise appears to be a part of his upcoming movie Am I Racist?
Some commenters were displeased with his appearance at the convention, one calling him “weird,” a common Democratic attack on Republicans after Vice President Kamala Harris took the mantle as the party’s nominee.
Kirk is not in disguise. He openly treaded the DNC floor and argued with Young Democrats of Georgia President Parker Short, who appeared upset at Kirk’s appearance there.
The DNC is continuing for its third day Wednesday, and Harris will accept the Democratic nomination Thursday, the last day of the convention.
