After Mike Lindell told Sarah Carter that he is not ruling out running for representative of Minnesota, rumors began spreading that he could be the guy to oust Omar from her seat!
However, when asked about this, Mike Lindell cleared things up.
He told Fox & Friends,
“Well, the answer is not
at this time. That was kind of taken all
out of context but I did say
if —
if the Lord wanted me to run, I
would run…”
However, that doesn’t rule out Lindell possibly running in the future! For now though, he just wants to focus on flipping Minnesota red and helping Trump get re-elected!
Lindell went on to say,
“I would love to do it.
But I’ve got such a big platform
going on right now, and I want
to help the president help turn Minnesota completely
red, and get the right people in
office that are going to just help our state to be one of the amazing
states in the country.”

The Daily Caller has more to say about Lindell's clarification of his goal for 2020:
MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell addressed rumors that he is planning to run for office in his home state of Minnesota, perhaps against Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar, on “Fox & Friends” Friday morning following comments he made earlier in July.
“Well, the answer is not at this time. That was kind of taken all out of context but I did say if — if the Lord wanted me to run, I would run…” Lindell, an outspoken Trump supporter, said. “I would love to do it. But I’ve got such a big platform going on right now, and I want to help the president help turn Minnesota completely red, and get the right people in office that are going to just help our state to be one of the amazing states in the country.”
The “Fox & Friends” hosts pressed Lindell on whether he would challenge Omar, whose politics he has described as “horrific” on the Sara Carter Show earlier in July.
“There’s things going on you don’t even see. And I will tell you this, I’m going to do so much in Minnesota over the next year and a half, you won’t even see any blue,” he told Carter.

CBS Boston also commented:
My Pillow CEO Mike Lindell says he is not going to run against Rep. Ilhan Omar in Minnesota’s 5th Congressional District.
The entrepreneur told the hosts on Fox and Friends on Friday that while he “would love to run” against the congresswoman, he can’t give up his current platform.
Still, he vowed to help President Donald Trump turn Minnesota “completely red.”
