MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell was caught on camera being torn apart by a 12-year-old boy during a tense debate at the Democratic National Convention.
Lindell, 63, appeared at the event apparently in costume as he continued to insist that voter fraud had tilted the 2020 election in favor of President Joe Biden.
In a face-to-face meeting with a young Harris-Walz activist named Knowa, Lindell can be heard saying, “They just found 257,000 missing votes in the 2020 election.”
Knowa can be heard responding: “He hasn’t provided any source,” to which Lindell says: “The source is in his documents in Georgia.”
The young man then hilariously responds, “So, your source is ‘trust me, bro’?” as the two walk away.

It’s not yet clear which article Lindell was referring to; the only headline about missing votes in Georgia comes from a fact check conducted by the Associated Press last year.
His story debunked claims that more than 20,000 people counted in the state “don’t exist.”
In response to the comment of Daily BeastLindell provided them with a link to a Wordpress page from an election integrity group that showed purported findings.
The outlet reported that the findings were not accompanied by any links or sources, such as trusted news sites.
Lindell’s ongoing conspiracy theory about the 2020 election came back to haunt him earlier this year.
A Minnesota judge has ruled that a pillow maker must pay a man $5 million after completing its “Prove Mike Wrong” challenge.
Lindell offered a $5 million reward to anyone who could prove that the “packet captures” and other data he posted were not valid data from the 2020 election.
Knowa has been sharing images from the convention alongside prominent Democrats; Lindell is seen here.

Robert Zeidman, a software developer, took up Lindell’s challenge and submitted a 15-page report that ultimately proved Lindell wrong.
Lindell is currently embroiled in a defamation lawsuit filed by Dominion Voter Systems, while his company has been experiencing financial difficulties.
Last July, Lindell told DailyMail.com that his company had lost a staggering $100 million since Walmart and Bed Bath & Beyond recalled his products over his false claims of election fraud.
The polarizing MAGA supporter said in a phone interview that MyPillow was making $110 million a year in gross sales before the election controversy but is now making only about $5 million — a whopping 95 percent drop.
It is also the subject of another defamation lawsuit in Minnesota filed by another voting machine company, Smartmatic.

He was also interviewed after his interaction with Lindell and said it “felt great.”
