Apparently the guy who proved Mike wrong is a Trump voter, who just knew enough to get the $5 million lol.
Damn that’s fucking hilarious
Not surprising. They eat their own the very moment it becomes advantageous to do so. There’s no loyalty among thieves
Yeah I heard an interview with him. He basically said that Lindell’s crazy was hurting Trump. 100% not joking
Eat shit Lindell. Sell some more pillows if you can. All you had to do was quietly be a millionaire selling cheap garbage pillows to idiots, but noooo you thought you could have an influence on a national scale and overthrow an election. Turns out you were wrong.
Wait, I could have gotten $5 mil by proving him wrong?
Fuck, why did I have to learn about this AFTER the fact?
Dude still hasn’t paid out after nearly 4 years.
How did some fucking Shamwow Vince wannabe be fuck become such a big name in politics?
Same way “Joe the Plumber”, Kim Davis, Kyle Rittenhouse, etc. GOP elevates their story to the national spotlight to “prove their point” and then leaves them out to dry after their 15 minutes of fame have been used up.
lol i forgot all about joe the plumber.
Smh, the man wasn’t even a plumber.
Thinking he may have passed away.
Kyle Rittenhouse was CNN and BLM racebaiting. Turns out he shot white people.
Everyone knew he shot white people. They’re just mad that he didn’t let people kill him or burn down private businesses.

I agree with all your points except your opening comment and your final point.
I’d replace your final line with:
Did he go there hoping to use his shiny new gun, and stay in a volatile environment he should never have entered until finally he got the legally defensible excuse he went there looking for? Yes.
And as a bonus:
Does anyone at all believe that ridiculous crying act he pulled during the trial? God I hope not.
The law is the law (especially if you are white) and he managed to stay within it. I acknowledge that without for one minute believing he went there for any reason but hoping to use that gun.
Edit: While I’m at it –
Did the “soft-Authoritarian left” demonize him without nuance to make him into a scapegoat, radicalizing him towards authoritarian-right philosophies and talking-points? Absolutely.
Huh. I thought “personal responsibility” was a big thing with right wingers. I say he made his own choices to be there and do what he did, and he made his own choices to behave like a racist scumbag. He can choose to stop on any day. That responsibility lies on him.

I’m just not seeing the justification for your last statement, though I continue to agree with your comment regarding legality. No one’s opinions about me are going to turn me into a maga, and I can’t see how they would.
I would argue he had the right to be there. He worked in that town, and lived maybe 15 minutes away. And further more, it was a public area. Angry mobs dont own the street.

Same way a wannabe mob boss reality star did,
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Federal Judge orders MyPillow founder, Mike Lindell, to pay $5 million within 30 days for losing an election challenge. Lindell, known for denying the 2020 election results, had hosted a contest to prove his claims but lost. Despite Lindell’s intention to appeal, he must pay up immediately. Lindell claims financial hardship, stating his company organized the event, not him personally, and he has minimal assets. The dispute arose when Lindell failed to provide promised evidence, leading to arbitration. While the judge expressed concerns about the arbitration panel’s interpretation, he upheld the decision. Lindell’s financial struggles extend beyond this case, including defamation lawsuits that drained his resources.

Good bot!
How the fuck does the owner of a pillow company get so much press?
by being a cocaine fueled conspiracy monkey infront of cameras
I thought he smoked crack? I guess it’s technically the same drug…
That’s a lot of shitty pillows!
be sure to call them lumpy pillows!
Looks like he’s now finding out…
LOL
Why do all these genius millionaires/billionaires suddenly have no money when it comes to paying their court ordered punishments?
