The circus is coming to Sioux Falls in a few weeks and ringmaster Mike Lindell is desperately trying to sell tickets and drive attendance. Lindell announced this morning that he would pay $5 Million to anybody who could prove a negative, namely that the 2020 election was not stolen. What’s that you say? Didn’t every state in the union certify the election results and those were entered into the official record by Mike Pence on January 6, and that’s what the riot was about? Voice of Reason, that was in reality. Where Lindell lives, something else took place, don’t ask us what. I’m just wondering how much he would pay for somebody to prove that Bigfoot doesn’t exist. This could be the start of a real trend, here.

Now, his wording is vague. He’s offering the money to “any attendee” “if they can prove the data is not the 2020 election.” What does that even mean? That the data is from some other election? Or transmitted from deep space? Any contest has clearly defined rules and terms. This one is getting off to a disastrous start, but what would you expect? This is Lindell’s last stand. Too bad it’s in South Dakota and not in Montana, where there would be some real historical resonance, but it’s going to be the grand finale nonetheless.

For right now, Occam’s Razor would seem to dictate that this is the simplest explanation.

I don’t know what the technical scam is in this, but I would wager money of my own that nobody is ever going to see the $5 Million. This plays out as Lindell realizing, three weeks ahead of show time, that the symposium isn’t exactly a hit and so he needs to do something to drive up box office receipts and fast.

Maybe if he wasn’t having the symposium in a COVID capital, it might be selling better, although I doubt it. Unless I miss my guess, the faithful will flock to Sioux Falls, as they always do, and everybody else will stay home to watch the show on OAN and Newsmax.

  1. Poor baby. Now that he has been exposed as not having a shred of the evidence he has been bragging about for what, 6 or 8 months? And so he is promising (snicker, snort) to give somebody $5 millions for what he says he had all along but didn’t? How does this dude stay in business?

  2. Trust me, you don’t want his hootenanny in MT. It’s wall to wall MAGAts here. Can’t fly fish because the trout are over-stressed from the heat and low water flows (Big Hole, Blackfoot, Clark Fork, All three tribs of the Flathead, Big Spring, Yellowstone…) all are damned near dry. You might as well go to S.D.

    Can he even be trusted to HAVE the money to give? I mean, I figure he can’t be trusted to give the money when people prove what actually happened: he’ll weasel his way out of that. Near as I can figure the guy went through a lot of money on this patently false “election was stolen” nonsense so….does he even have any left? I’m not sure there are enough MAGAt’s needing pillows to make up what he’s lost.
