Mike Lindell says he’s losing a million dollars a week not advertising on Fox. I believe he said much the same about the effects of his previous shunning. Amazing he’s still in business.

I'm pretty sure he makes up all his numbers. But for what it is worth, in 2019 he told NYT he was clearing $300M/yr in sales. In Feb. '21, he said his antics were going to cost him $65M for the year. In a court filing somewhere in between Feb. and Apr. (I think), he claimed to be spending $5M/mo on advertising. And now I guess $1M/mo would be an additional (?) $52M/yr. Going forward.
Or something.
All numbers likely made up, just not by me.

He does have a talent. If Lindell's hacker turns out to be somebody other than Montgomery, I'm gonna be a little disappointed. Granted, he is about to die any day now, for the last 10 years, but that has not stood in his way in the past (and managed to keep his Las Vegas case at bay for near 13 years so far).
What is also impressive is that he has had very few consequences even when he is discovered to be scamming them. His marks just rather be rid of him. He knows how to find the right marks.

Drew Griffin of CNN took Mike Lindell apart... don't know if there was even a bass plug left. Warning: Don't be drinking a beverage while watching.
https://www.rawstory.com/mike-lindell-voter-fraud/'What is this?' CNN reporter baffled after Mike Lindell shows him 'proof of nothing' in train wreck interview
Brad Reed August 05, 2021
CNN reporter Drew Griffin asked MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell to hand over his purportedly bombshell voter fraud evidence -- and he came away thinking that Lindell simply had no idea how voting works. During an interview that aired on Thursday night, Lindell handed Griffin a document that he claimed was his linchpin in proving that the Chinese government had interfered to illegitimately elect President Joe Biden last year.
Griffin showed the document to cybersecurity experts, however, and they all said they had no idea what Lindell believed the document proved. "What is this?" asked a baffled Griffin. "That's just one piece of 1.2 billion lines of data from the election, OK?" Lindell replied. "Within that will be timestamps when it happened, there'll be flips in there." "We sent this to our experts," Griffin replied. "They said that it doesn't show any specific actions of any kind, election-related or not, and it's proof of nothing."
"OK," said a defensive Lindell. "He said that's nothing, huh? Then you didn't hire a cyber expert." In fact, Griffin said CNN talked with nine top cybersecurity experts, all of whom said Lindell's document proved nothing, and one of whom called Lindell's claims "completely ridiculous."

By Casey Tolan, Curt Devine and Drew Griffin, CNN

(CNN)Since the presidential election, Christina Jensen says she's been stopped on the street several times by acquaintances who wanted to share troubling news: hackers from Beijing had switched nearly 24,000 votes for Donald Trump in their rural, GOP-leaning Wisconsin county. Jensen, the Clark County clerk and a Republican herself, has patiently explained that the local election computer system isn't connected to the internet -- and the county has less than 17,000 registered voters overall. But she finds herself unable to convince those constituents of the simple fact that the election wasn't stolen: "They are like, 'Well, Mike Lindell says this,'" Jensen said.
Lindell, the MyPillow CEO and a close ally of former President Donald Trump, has emerged as one of the most vocal boosters still pushing false claims about the 2020 election. In a series of so-called documentaries, Lindell has advanced an increasingly outlandish theory that foreign hackers broke into the computer systems of election offices like Clark County to switch votes -- in what he has described as the "biggest cyber-crime in world history."
Election officials at more than a dozen counties that Lindell has claimed were hacking targets told CNN that the pillow magnate's claims are utterly meritless. They noted that their voting machines are not connected to the internet, that the results are confirmed by paper ballots, and in some cases that official audits, recounts, or reviews have verified their vote tallies. In addition, CNN interviewed nine cybersecurity experts, all of whom said the "proof" Lindell has released so far is nonsense -- and that there is zero evidence of any kind of successful hacking of last year's election results.
But many Americans are buying into baseless claims of vote fraud: polls have found that roughly two-thirds of Republicans believe President Joe Biden was not legitimately elected. And while Lindell isn't as prominent as other right-wing figures denying the election results -- including the former President himself -- his rhetoric has broken through among some of the Trump faithful.

Re: Mike Lindell's Frank & MyStore & 'Cyber Symposium' & Other #FAILS - FrankSpeech
Okay. Here's what we have to do. We have to convince the Republicans that the Democrats WANT them to vote so that their votes can be SWITCHED. Every vote the Republicans cast will be flipped to a Democratic vote. So the best way to "own" the Democrats is not to vote.
I think it really might work.

After viewing the AC360 clip I have pitty for Lindell. He doesn't understand IT, therefore not the internet (can he even use email?), and at the same time he is totally ignorant as how the US elections are done.

RTH --
https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/my ... s-n1254676In his email to NBC News, Lindell said: "All the evidence against Dominion is before the Supreme Court. ... China and others used the machines to corrupt our election! Here is one page of the proof."
The email did not include an attachment. When asked if he had mistakenly omitted it, Lindell sent another email with an empty attachment and a third with screenshots of illegible text.

"China and others... !!!"
Lindell's proposition is so absurd that the implications are overlooked:
Lindell is accusing the former T maladministration of having been grossly negligent and incompetent in protecting the elections, not noticing that those actors manipulated the machines and whatevahhh One could infer that T and his cronies brought it upon themselves that they lost the election

It was sufficiently subtle yet obvious that I didn't see it either. Good point!

Mike Lindell has released a hilarious "cyber symposium" schedule for next week in Sioux Falls, which features a "complimentary buffet" three times a day, "cyber center kiosks" scattered about, and a nightly "networking" event that is four hours long.
