MyPillow guy told Steve Bannon he's launching 'MyStore' - a 'patriotic' version of Amazon


MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell has another new idea: a patriotism-themed e-commerce platform.

Speaking on Steve Bannon's "War Room: Pandemic" podcast on Monday, Lindell announced that he was launching a company called MyStore as a rival to Amazon. Lindell's latest appearance on Bannon's podcast follows a visit to the show two weeks ago, when he went on a long rant about voter-fraud allegations and former President Donald Trump.

The MyPillow website features a version of MyStore with 81 products. These include "freedom flags," "freedom coffee," and an "uncommon US flagpole."

Also sold on the site are books about Trump, including a book titled "Love Joy Trump." Lindell has also listed his memoir, "What Are the Odds?" for $9.97.

Literally. Who knew you could cram so much useless junk onto a web page.

Looks like he may have abandoned his trademarks too?

...with whose money?
Lindell is nowhere close to as wealthy as claimed.
Company size, performance & longevity makes it impossible that this crack head is worth hundreds of millions.
I'm suspicious he's a crazy mouthpiece for somebody much richer, more nefarious, & less crazy.

I waded through the cesspool of his website to see just what the hell this was, out of curiosity. It is billed as "the strongest telescoping flag pole in the industry", so, I guess? Seems like a silly title.

They will bilk you $300 bucks for it, though.
