Steve Bannon commented on Mike Lindell's loss in Minnesota's GOP gubernatorial primary, attributing it to Lindell's immigration amnesty proposal. Bannon stated that if Lindell had not supported the proposal, he would have won the primary decisively, highlighting the strength of former President Trump's endorsement. Lindell's proposal involved a six-month deportation moratorium for illegal immigrants to apply for visas, which some viewed as contrary to Republican values. Trump endorsed Lindell in July and reiterated his support on social media despite the controversy surrounding the proposal. Lindell's opponent, Lisa Demuth, will face Senator Amy Klobuchar in the upcoming election. Bannon maintained that Trump's endorsement remains highly influential, suggesting that Lindell's support would have been significantly lower without it.
