    Lindell was ordered to pay $5 million to a man who won a “Prove Mike Wrong” contest at his 2021 “cyber-symposium” where he challenged experts to examine his data, which he claimed proved Donald Trump really won the 2020 election.

    It didn’t, and one expert who looked at the data demanded the prize.

    Lindell refused to pay, so the case went to court, where he lost.

    🤣

      What’s even better is that the guy in question - Robert Zeidman - is, in fact a Trump supporter. But as a data analytics engineer, he wasn’t able to fool himself with bullshit data.
