Mike Lindell Floats Bringing a MyPillow to His Dominion Trial After a Lawyer Called Them 'Lumpy'

MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell said he considered bringing one of his pillows to federal court to rebut a claim made by a Dominion Voting Systems attorney during his deposition. Lindell is set to appear in Denver federal court this week as part of a defamation lawsuit filed by Dominion. The company alleges Lindell defamed it by promoting false claims that Dominion machines helped rig the 2020 presidential election against Donald Trump.

During an appearance on Steve Bannon’s War Room podcast over the weekend, Lindell recounted a previous exchange with Dominion’s legal team in which one of its attorneys allegedly called his pillows “lumpy.” “I told my lawyers, maybe I should bring him one inside,” Lindell told Bannon, who made a pitch for his listeners to buy Lindell’s products to fund the legal defense.

Lindell told Bannon when he floated bringing a pillow to trial, his attorney said, “Mike, let’s not go there.” The CEO and election denier said the trial, which begins Monday, is a rare instance of a defendant refusing to settle with Dominion. “This is the first trial — everyone else has taken deals and they’re afraid,” he told Bannon.

The lawsuit against Lindell and MyPillow was filed in 2021. Dominion is seeking more than $1.3 billion in damages, alleging Lindell used his platform to spread baseless election conspiracy theories, which he also used to boost MyPillow sales. The case is one of several filed by Dominion following the 2020 election, including a $787 million settlement reached with Fox News in 2023.

Oh well. Guess Dominion Systems will have to file a legal attachment on
his personal and business properties and Mike can become like Rudy G.
and be flat ass broke by supporting Trump.

Btw the quality of Lindell’s pillows are not linked to Dominion’s legal
actions against him.

"Lumpy" it is, from now on. And if you're looking for sympathy, Lumpy, check in with Giuliani, Musk, or any of the many others whose prosperity and reputations have been wrecked by their close associations with trump. You'll have plenty of company, before trump is driven off the public stage.

I brought one years ago before he became a magaloon. Washed it and put it in my dryer ( per the instructions on low heat ) and it exploded and wrecked my dryer. I had the repairman come out and he said that he’d had seen this before and should buy a new dryer as it destroyed the motor. I threw away the other one immediately after that!
