Mike Lindell, the CEO of MyPillow and a well-known supporter of MAGA, recently attempted to disguise himself by shaving his mustache for a covert mission at the Democratic National Convention (DNC). However, his undercover operation quickly backfired after several clips of him arguing with attendees started trending on social media.
A video shared on X by the account @RightWingCope shows Lindell, sporting a new look with a hat and sunglasses, in a heated debate with a DNC attendee from Georgia regarding alleged election fraud in 2020.
The clip features the caption: “Mike Lindell got DESTROYED by a 12-year-old in a debate after shaving his mustache to go undercover at the DNC,” and has amassed around 884,000 views by Thursday.

During the debate, the young attendee challenged Lindell’s claims, saying, “You haven’t provided any source.” Lindell retorted, referencing supposed missing votes in Georgia. The boy cleverly shot back: “So your source is ‘trust me, bro?'”
Lindell had teased his undercover plan in a video on his X account, noting it had been 30 years since he last shaved his mustache. “It’s finally happening,” he said, ahead of his DNC visit to gather footage for his viewers.
Unfortunately for Lindell, things didn’t go as planned. Another clip shared by Democrat influencer Harry Sisson showed Lindell being confronted over his support for Trump, who is a “convicted felon.” The exchange, which has reached around 488,000 views, revealed Lindell’s evasive response before he abruptly walked away.
In his parting shot, Lindell referenced a recent Planned Parenthood initiative promoting vasectomies, which added another layer of controversy to the exchange.
With the elections approaching, topics surrounding reproductive rights are highly charged, with Republicans favoring states’ rights on abortion bans, while Democrats advocate for federal protections.
Lindell, known for supporting Trump’s claims about Dominion Voting Systems allegedly rigging the election, is currently facing a defamation lawsuit from the company after spending $40 million on unsuccessful legal battles to change the election results.
His financial situation has worsened, with some retailers opting to discontinue his pillow products amidst these controversies.
