He basically destroyed his company by pushing QAnon and 2020 election conspiracy theories. Most major retailers stopped carrying MyPillow products. They had to sell a bunch of their manufacturing equipment and got evicted from their warehouse. Fox News stopped running MyPillow commercials because they stopped paying their bills. His lawyers said he hasn't paid them either and owes millions in legal fees.
"We've lost everything, every dime," Lindell told NBC News in a phone interview. "All of it is gone."

Trump has even destroyed a pillow empire. On another note, Pillow Guy works his way back from drug addiction to be very wealthy and then falls for Trump's lies and now he is broke and fading away. I see a relapse coming. Sad

His issue is he's a junkie, and he simply replaced crack with politics, and went just as hard as if he were hitting the pipe. He chased conspiracies for the high it gave him, so the addiction mechanism pushed him deeper and deeper. And like an addict, he had no self-awareness of his problem. Even hitting rock bottom was someone else's fault.
Addict to crack.
To addict in business.
To addict in politics.
I'm sure he'll be back chasing something else. Hopefully next it's like drilling wells in Africa and his life ends like Kenny Powers.

I am suspicious of guys who wear their Crucifixes loudly in public and use the born-again shtick as a business ploy. He could be a good dude who would give you his shirt, or a charismatic sociopath, hard to tell. Certainly checks the charismatic, and the poor impulse control boxes.

Yep. Saw the ads on FOX too. Just like the previous poster said everything advertised was $25. Then ABC, CNN, and MSNBC was Kamala, Kamala and more Kamala. They need to get a life.

So if ABC, MSNBC etc we’re all Kamala, Kamala, Kamala, what kind of programming did Fox counter with?

Hurricane Debbie is heading toward the FL Panhandle, Kamala is a plug and play for the Democrat Machine and doesn't have to have any beliefs, jobs report not good, Olympics update, Trump Rally in ATL, Rocky Reboot, Paul Pelosi's attorney pleas not guilty in his DUI court appearance, Iran and Israel, ...
That's enough for now.

saddis56® very good reply. If CNN is/was devoting the bulk of their coverage to Kamala/Politics while Fox at the same time was covering a more balanced topic set... then maybe I have to give Foxy another shot.... at least starting again with the news desk.
No ####### way I can listen to Jessie, Sean, and that transgendered Laura/Larry. Same I can't listen to MSNBC's primetime lineup.
CNN's Cooper I can tolerate sometimes. Erin Burnett at 7pm ET still gets me tingly after all these years. Fell in love with her a long time ago when she was on CNBC. And the love affair continues.
hmm. that was kind of a meaningless tangent. carry on.

Mike Lindell is a wingnut but his "My Pillow" brand stuff is pretty good.
Aug 6, 2024, 1:47 PM

Wife and I have been sleeping on his pillows since he first hit the airwaves (before he went coo-coo for Coco Puffs for Trump) and have some of his Giza bed sheets and bath towels. IMO he makes a good pillow and bedding stuff - can recommend his products.
I do wish Lindell would stop with the nauseating Trump worship and political garbage - just focus on making/selling his products and drop the stupid shid. I also wish most of our society, especially those who entertain/make and sell products, would get out of politics. I don't care what a Corporation, entertainer, or sports figure thinks about politics. Just offer a product that ALL of us can enjoy and leave politics out of it...

He's exhibit A of how the left cancels somebody. They don't just stop buying his product, they pressure every retailer in existence to stop carrying his product and then get the banks to stop doing business with him. Yet when the other side does nothing other than stop using the product, while doing nothing to prevent others from doing so, left wing bed wetters cry like their late night sneaky uncle just paid them a visit. Cross left wing garbage at your own risk is the moral of this story because they will move heaven and earth to destroy you.

I've always thought that Bud and Bud Light is a nasty brew and has more in common with varnish remover than an alcoholic beverage. I'm no longer a big drinker anyway - but for the limited amount of beers I'll drink in a year - I sure as h.ell ain't wasting it on that nasty Bud family mule p.izz.
After living in Germany and having a regular dose of Würzburger Hofbräu - just about all American mass produced beer is "meh - pass"....

Believe it or not there are people responsible for managing a brand that don't want their products associated with a nutter.

He's a white, self-proclaimed Christian, male. Persecution is allowed and encouraged.
