I could see him playing the 'feel sorry for me and buy my pillows' card so it wouldn't surprise me. A couple of the articles I've read say that he's lost 100 million dollars? Also something about having to borrow money to fight his current lawsuits? 

I've read in to it about as much as I'm going to. 

He should have just sold his pillows and kept his trap shut.  :lol: 


I honestly don't care. Never cared for the pillows. Never cared for him. But I know a good handful of people who work or worked for him.

Yes, companies and individuals who express any political opinions should be prepared for the fallout.

Lindell stuck his neck out and now it looks like he is getting his head chopped off.
Gcode is right... you may win a battle or two, but you can't win the war against the cancel culture.

I was just reading an article about Guy Fieri, the Food Network guy on 'Diners, Drive Ins & Dives'.

He has always been politically neutral in public, which is a wise decision for any celebrity IMO.
Recently he had his picture taken with Donald Trump at a UFC event in Vegas, and the internet and social media immediately went ballistic.

Liberals everywhere began posting on social media about how they will never watch one of his tv shows or eat in one of his restaurants ever again because of ONE PICTURE with Trump.

TDS is still all too real.  :yes:

I'm probably a hypocrite, but if I like a companies product I don't care what their political stance is or who they take photo's with, I'm going to buy it.

Speaking of the MyPillow guy and his 70s porn mustache...

MyPillow Guy Saving Up to Buy a Supreme Court Justice

QuoteWASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Mike Lindell, better known as the MyPillow Guy, has disclosed that he is saving up to buy a Supreme Court Justice.

"I've always wanted to own a Supreme Court Justice, but it seems like other guys have already snapped up the best ones," he said. "I realized I'd better jump on this while there are still some left on the market."

Lindell bemoaned the fact that Justices such as Clarence Thomas and Neil Gorsuch had already been purchased, but he acknowledged that they were "probably out of my price range anyway."

"Since my pillow empire has been tanking, the most I can afford is a bargain-basement Supreme Court Justice in beat-up condition," he said. "I'm gonna have to settle for Kavanaugh

I've always found the "I buy X because I support A, B, and C." Fascinating. I have friends that do it. My favorite one is I have a friend that does NOT drink coffee, but he's on a coffee subscription for one of the many Veteran owned and run coffee companies. :rofl: He ends up giving it away. To his credit, it's actually worked out for the coffee company as just about every bag he gave away resulted in a subscription. 

Thinking out loud, I wonder how many turn out that way?

Democrats opine about Republicans wanting to cancel books, while they, themselves wish to cancel people.

I don't like Mike Lindell but I bought one of his mattress toppers. 

I wouldn't buy another one but that's not because of him. The topper just wasn't that good. If it were good I'd buy another one.

Cancel culture definitely isn't one sided. And has escalated over the years.

If anyone wants to get rid of their bud light, I'll take it.  My girlfriend will drink it.  :lol:
