The funniest thing is you know even Trump thinks this guy is a historic rube. Dude threw everything away for Trump without even being asked and he didn't even get a pat on the head.
Damn, the Deep State sure did do a number on this poor man.
- He should have seen it coming - we talked about it at all the deep state meetings.
  
  Are those the same meetings where you plan the destruction of American cities and the nuclear family?
- He can cry himself to sleep on his lumpy pillows.
  
  For the uninitiated
- And his pillows are too lumpy for the Deep Sleep to reinvigorate him.
As much as his pillows and politics suck, he does employ a bunch of people who didn't deserve to lose their jobs because he wanted to suck the orange idiot's cock.
- It is true. But at the same time, in our cold capitalistic society that sometimes boots people out the door through no particular fault of their own, surely "your boss tried to murder democracy and we're trying to disable him and his company because he seems like he really wants to try again" is one of the better reasons for it.
- They were free to find gainful employment elsewhere 🤷‍♂️
  
  Not everyone has their pick of where to go.
  There are always some people that take a job because careers the market is rough for whatever they do. I could see junior UX designer saying “fuck it, it’s a job and they gave me an offer.”
- I mean, they’ve had several years to find a company not run by a crackhead psychopath fascist that’s trying to destroy our democracy.
Landlord: “this is MY pillow now”
Right wing nutjobs and not paying their debts. Name a more iconic duo.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
"MyPillow has more or less vacated, but we'd like to do this by the book," the landlord's attorney, Sara Filo, said during an eviction court hearing on Tuesday, per Star Tribune.
Filo's request was granted by Scott County Chief Judge Caroline Lennon on Tuesday, per the Star Tribune.
Lindell's legal and financial woes have been piling up ever since he became a hardcore advocate for former President Donald Trump's baseless election fraud claims.
But Lindell's growing belief in conspiracy theories on election interference has created some dire straits for his pillow business.
Then, in June 2022, Walmart told BI that it would stop carrying MyPillow products in its stores, though they would still be sold online.
Lindell told the Associated Press in January that his company owes Fox News around $7.8 million in advertising fees.
