CEO Who Claimed He Gave Raises Because of Trump's Tax Cuts Lays Off 150 Employees



Long time Donald Trump supporter and My Pillow CEO Mike Lindell laid off 150 employees just months after crediting Trump’s tax cuts for creating an economic boom.

“Barely 6 months after he credited Trump’s tax cuts for creating a new economic boom, My Pillow boss Mike Lindell is laying off 150 employees,” Aaron Rupar pointed out on Friday.


<snip>

In April of 2017, MyPillow laid off about 140 workers at its Chaska facility.

Not to worry, employees! Lindell, who is one of the funders of the pro-life movie “Unplanned,” told Fox 9 “the impacted employees have been informed of other job opportunities outside of MyPillow.”

Opportunities, y’all. They’re almost like real jobs, only they don’t pay. - PoliticusUSA


He's a former crack cocaine addict. No wonder he's behind sniff-sniff tRump.

That's a man who's pumped up on something. Look at the wide eyes and the dilated pupils in that picture. I lived and played in Miami for years. I know how you get THAT look.

Also, I just want to laugh at anyone who wears a cross like that. Jesus would strike him dead for such a blatant display.

I washed one and it came apart and ruined my dryer. Took months to get all those foam pieces out of the dryer holes.

And I’m sure a lot of people refused to buy that pillow because he aligned himself to fat Donnie. I saw some marked down in a discount store here in the SF Bay Area. A week later it appeared they had not been sold and were marked down 2 for the price of 1.

So he plans on reviving Matt Whitkaker's Inventor's Scam. Interesting to say the least. Hmmm. Mikey is such a fraud.
