This feels like making fun of someone who is special needs.. that guy is not alright and it’s crazy people keep putting him on TV for their own ratings.
That’s what networks do…make money, same as Lindell…it’s all about money and we’re all falling for it.
No, its like making fun of someone thats a drug addict. And thats what it is.
Bad publicity is better than no publicity either way it’s good for his business with the trump supporters.
@Heather Yep…$$$$$!
To be fair, the comedic version will never be not hilarious.
Name me one person who has ever watched & listened to this fool has never cracked a smile!
There is nothing you can say to these people they believe what they want to believe.
@Ashen Walker Every president does on a routine basis.
@Bern Vigz……apparently not…
@Barron 🎑 Ridge please do tell what cult am I in?
@Herlander Carvalho I knew.
Are they really “lies” or are they delusions? He seems to genuinely believe the insanity he’s pushing
If Mike Pillow or Donnie Jr. aren’t the next poster boys for the “say no to drugs” campaign, I am going to ask some questions!
It’s called meth!
@Chris James Brian textbook male naracism.
Pillow guy keeps claiming he has the “evidence” but NEVER reveals it. So….
Just like the J6th hearings
@Sean McCartney dolt
@Sean McCartney I guess you missed all of the video footage.
@Vital Signs not quite. You have to show that or are you like Mike?
…CAN’T!
3 hours? That’s 2 hours, 59 minutes, and 59 seconds more than I would have sat thru.
Yeah, although that is with the prior knowledge of how they speak and what they speak about. To be fair you should give them enough time to put their own foot in their mouth, and then… You’ll know… Sadly, they haven’t been able to let go of their lies.
He deserves a bonus for sitting for 3 hrs wth a lunatic. He has more patience than I do.
Pillow is a maniac. He goes on and on in these word salads.
Maybe Mike was buying.
He failed to tell you the interview was conducted through a tiny window where Lindell is being held in a white padded room.
Absolutely
@Just a Cinnamon Bun we can only wish!
Drugs can seriously damage your brain, especially if you don’t have much to start with.
Mike will find out when Dominion gets around to suing him.
@David Cataldo ohhwoww….van winkle
@Donkey Kong well let me know if there is you know something other than fox news fantasy, id like to hear about it
@David Cataldo nothing could wake you from your slumber
@Donkey Kong right, gotcha. When you have nothing to back any baseless claims or conspiracy theories you have, project, lie and scream louder just like a toddler. Have fun with that.
@David Cataldo funny about those conspiracy “theories” coming to reality …must hurt to know your failing
I wonder how many times Lindell said “I can prove it.” He started saying this over 2.5 years ago and has yet to present any “proof”.
Perhaps it’s time to ask the man what he thinks the meaning of the word “proof” is?
@rankat1841 that’s the biggest snowflake comment of the day 👍
This is huge. The base believes it still. The party is going along just like they did in February 2021. I’m glad you are covering this.
Did you really think they were going to get any smarter in just a few years?
I hope Dominion’s lawyers are listening. 😂
Too little; too late. They already settled. Now it’s up to #Smartmatic.
@Koda They settled with Fox, not Mike Lindell. Different potential suit.
@Koda There is a separate case of Dominion vs. Mike Lindell. And he just keeps digging himself deeper…
He’s insane. Why do you even bother to interview him!! Why give him air time.
It would be like sitting with someone who has lost his mind, either that or he is deliberately lying. I thought there was something wrong with Pillow just from those ridiculous ads he used to run.
We’ve gone through other periods of madness in our history, and when I see crazy people talking about executing members of Congress, I’m sometimes reminded of the Salem witch trials when innocent women were drowned because of mass hysteria. I know that sounds a little strange, and it was on a much smaller scale, but the townspeople were willing to execute women and men with no evidence, just the dreams and visions of some girls. A baby who was being nursed by one of the accused women died in jail. A 4 year old was shackled and imprisoned with her mother. Yes, it’s different, but don’t believe for a second that the mad crowd didn’t really want to hang Mike Pence or kill Nancy Pelosi.
its not a little strange, the very same thing happened in europe on a much larger scale over and over again. E.g. when the Spanish inquisition happened, ppl could be accused of being witches because they were petting cats, or being “secret jews” because they took baths on certain days or didnt eat pork in public. These people were often tortured and/or burned in public due to mass hysteria.
Maga is the Latin word for witch.
So when trump says it’s a ‘witch hunt’ he’s not totally wrong.
Mike likes to say he has all the proof.
But when you ask him to see it 😳 he can’t produce what he doesn’t have.
Guy deserves a Pulitzer, Oscar, Grammy, Emmy, Presidential Medal of Freedom and a Nobel Peace Prize for being subjected to that! Having to sit for three hours with that lunatic has GOT to be a violation of some sort of Geneva Convention Accord!
Worse than water boarding!
Depends if he racked up the journalist or if he was selfish 🤪
He is clearly painted into a corner. He HAS to continue this lie. Admission of lying means he then has to face the consequences of his actions, which in this case means absolutely no defence in the upcoming lawsuit.
I’m pretty sure he started this garbage to get attention and, because he’s not terribly bright, he couldn’t find a way out of it.
Ego plus greed plus desperation equals downfall.
It’s a helluva toboggan ride!
@j.r. weaver 😂🤣
Why can’t men ever paint themselves out of a corner?
@On Couch Arrest You can. You just have to start in the corner.
Insane how once people move away from individuals screaming nonsense on a street corner. Now they not only have followers, but get a 3 hr interview on tv.
When you’re that defensive about something and keep asking someone a question that debunks your BS yet you never let them answer because your mouth keeps running, you know you’re full of it.
Why isn’t Lyndell already in court being sued ?
The thing to ask a former drug addict – “Was there something else in your life, that you were once absolutely certain you were right about, but turned out to be completely wrong?” Tell him to take a couple of minutes to think about it, while fiddling with a clean crack pipe in front of him.
