The Pillow of Politics: Mike Lindell's Ambitious Gamble Mike Lindell, founder and former CEO of MyPillow, has stepped down from his leadership role to devote himself full time to his campaign for Minnesota governor.
This decision suggests that Lindell's priority is not his constituents' needs but rather his own ambition. Lindell founded MyPillow in 2004, which reportedly generates hundreds of millions of dollars annually.
One might expect its CEO to be content overseeing such a lucrative venture, but instead Lindell has chosen to take on the state's top job. His desire for power and prestige is evident.
