Donald Trump ally and MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell, who is campaigning to take over as chair of the Republican National Committee, has pointed the finger firmly at incumbent Ronna McDaniel for past failures.

In an interview with former Trump attorney Jenna Ellis on Wednesday, Lindell said that Republicans had a poor election record under McDaniel, giving her an "F" grade.

"Let's look at Ronna's Report Card. 2018: F, 2020: F, 2022: F. and it shouldn't be," he said

Lindell said of the 2022 result: "I would rank that the absolute worst one and it should have been the biggest red wave in history."

He later said that "you don't reward failure in any business."

Lindell announced that he was running to be the RNC chair on Monday, saying that he wanted to move the party towards backing candidates that support former President Trump and question the results of the 2020 presidential election.

Lindell said in the interview that he decided to run because he was "approached" by big Republican donors who said they would no longer donate to the RNC unless something big changed. He did not identify the donors.

He added that the first thing he would do if he got the job was to fire all of the RNC's lawyers, adding: "I'll raise more money than would ever be raised in history."
