He’s a grifter who wants to sell pillows.
He's been selling pillows for a long time (2004).
Why do you say he's a grifter? Is he profiting off of his silly election campaign?
"Now look here, you Baltic gas passer... " - Mik, 6/14/08
The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

Personally, I don't think he's all there. The stuff he does is bizarre.
Then again, a lot of Trump's associates seem to be pretty bizarre individuals. Maybe it's all an act.

Most of us underestimate the average person’s capacity to believe whatever because of motivations not having to do with the truth of whatever. If there’s a biochemical signature for lying, such self deception probably wouldn’t show it. The human mind is not designed as a truth seeking device.

He's lost a tremendous amount of money with the election stuff.
Here's the interesting part that I don't think Jon can just hand wave away...Lindell believes there was election interference. Personally, I wouldn't be surprised if it was, primarily through mail-in ballots and ballot harvesting. But I also am very suspicious of some of the 3AM stuff, which always seems to happen in Democrat strongholds.
Regardless, what do these people want? They want election reform. They want free and fair elections. They want people to vote, but they don't want illegal immigrants to vote or dead people to vote or even people to vote so far out from an election, that the earth can undergo a seismic shift, but that ballot mailed in 8 weeks before the election cannot be changed...Remember, polls have shown as many as 1 in 6 Biden voters would not have voted for Biden, had they known the Hunter laptop was real.
But, the FBI and MSM ran interference on that one.
But tribalists like Jon do not care about fair elections, either because of shady activities or government agencies putting finger on the election scale.
Why?
Because Trump. There is no level low enough that they will not prostitute their morals below, if they can "get" Trump.

Speaking to Bannon, Lindell commented: “Steve, we really need everybody’s help right now. We have things going on I’m going to let you all know this week…
“American Express, I wasn’t going to say this, we’ve been with them 15 years and we do all of our online marketing, all our shipping with them, out of the blue they took our credit line from a million dollars down to $100,000, just cripples MyPillow. No reason, no explanation, just dropped it down last Tuesday.”
A spokesperson for American Express told Newsweek in a story published on Tuesday that they weren't able to address Lindell's claims directly.
"We can't comment on specific customer accounts or applications, but I can tell you that American Express does not make customer decisions based on personal views or political affiliations," the spokesperson said.

@Jolly But why would they wait until now? It is kind of "old news" at this point. If it were really political, they would have done it 1-2 years ago.

Mike Lindell, the founder of MyPillow and a prominent promoter of election conspiracy theories, is facing a serious financial crisis that has led two law firms representing him to seek to withdraw from his cases.

The serial election denier says he has contacted some state election officials to promote his new device that supposedly detects if a voting machine is connected to the internet, a key debunked claim made by supporters of former President Donald Trump in the aftermath of the 2020 election.
“We hope to have them in all 50 states,” Lindell told ABC News. “It’s already been checked out … 100% legal.”
There’s just one problem: election officials say they don’t need or want the Pillow guy’s gizmo. They say election machines aren’t equipped with WiFi, so the devices are not needed, among other issues.
Kentucky Secretary of State Michael Adams said through a spokesman that Lindell seems to believe that because there is WiFi in a polling place that the ballot counting machines are linked up to the internet.

My Pillow owner and right-wing conspiracy theorist Mike Lindell will have to pay $5 million because of a contest he initiated at one of his “cyber symposium” events after the 2020 election, a federal judge confirmed Wednesday.
Robert Zeidman, a software developer, took Lindell up on a so-called “Prove Mike Wrong” challenge at an event the election-denier hosted. Participants in the challenge could win $5 million if they proved data Lindell provided about the 2020 election wasn’t real election data, according to rules the participants agreed to. The contest allowed participants to arbitrate if needed.
Zeidman responded in the challenge with a 15-page report saying that the data Lindell put forth wasn’t complete or representative of possible data that had been captured in real time from the internet, according to a federal court decision Wednesday.
Zeidman lost the challenge initially, but then took Lindell to arbitration, and won.
Lindell had hoped a federal judge would wipe out the $5 million award to Zeidman. But the judge, John Tunheim of the US District Court in Minnesota, refused to do so on Wednesday.
“The panel was tasked with the difficult job of interpreting a poorly written contract,” Tunheim wrote, about the prior decision to award Zeidman the $5 million. “The Court fails to identify evidence that the panel exceeded its authority,” he added.
“The data was just so obviously bogus,” Zeidman previously told CNN. “It surprised me.”

Election denier and MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell continues to refuse to pay more than $50,000 in sanctions he has been ordered to pay to voting software company Smartmatic over "frivolous" election claims -- alleging he's left with no money after numerous legal battles.
"I'm in ruins," a teary Lindell said through a Zoom screen during a motion hearing in the U.S. District Court in Washington on Wednesday, pleading to Judge Carl Nichols to allow him to wait until after the final judgement comes out to make any payment in the case, which he has already lost.
Last month, Smartmatic filed a motion to hold Lindell in contempt, alleging the MyPillow CEO has been dodging his court-ordered payment of $56,369 to Smartmatic for months.
