And sheets, and towels, and slippers and bathrobes and a long list of other consumer products.
He’s also known for his unrelenting support for President Donald Trump and pressure for answers for all those still-unresolved questions about the integrity of the 2020 election results.
Now he’s looking to add another title to his resume: Governor.

He’s already pledged to work on the fraud schemes that have developed in Minnesota under many years of Democratic rule.
There are estimates that in the Somali immigration community represented by Somali immigrant Rep. Ilhan Omar, a Democrat, there is fraud in the billions of dollars.
One schemer was sentenced to 41 years in prison just days ago. That was from a $250 million fraud in which organizations billed the government for providing meals during COVID to children, but didn’t provide the meals.
There have been accusations that Gov. Tim Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison knew of the fraud, and those claims remain under investigation.
Omar, also, is being investigated.
