I'm sure the baggies of crack under the stuffed animals were a pretty good incentive for him to do that.

Looks like a lifesize cardboard cutout of Lindell in there.

This would be funnier, except we have enough of those mentally challenged people in this country to have a chunk of control of our politics. And for a time one of them was Student Council President.

stop rehabbing this fascist asshole's reputation into that of a harmless clown.

he's a dangerous, fascist true believer.  he belongs dangling at the end of a rope, not on jimmy farking kimmel giving interviews.

It's more sad than funny at this point. Especially when you realize that nobody in this man's life cares enough about him to help him.

I'm sure we'll all take him seriously, now - I mean, he's right: calling out a rigged claw game that you agreed to put 25 cents into when your 10 is exactly the same as impugning the reputation of a multinational corporation and the nation's baseline of trust for its election process as 50+ year old adult who actively encouraged a coup attempt.

"I'd say no judge has looked at the evidence. They've all kicked the can on standing." THIS IS 100% FALSE!

But see what happens? Lindell just keeps shouting louder and louder, and not letting them get back to him. He is 100% wrong, and yet nobody live goes "here are all the lawsuits deemed 'kraken suits' because of your team and its arguments. None of them won, and some were so egregiously wrong on the facts that the lawyers who posted them are being sanctioned for abuse of the legal system."

Nobody looked at the evidence? Yeah they did. And because they looked at the evidence, several lawyers are getting disbarred and sanctioned.

Stop Lying, Mike!

no1curr: Don't give this conspiratorial asshat airtime.


Agreed. I'm sure Kimmel things is amusing to watch this guy degrade himself just for airtime, and he's not wrong, but it feels exploitative. And we don't need to encourage him or those who believe him.
 
2023-02-01 12:02:30 PM  
Everything about this is just irredeemably stupid.

Gin Buddy: It's more sad than funny at this point. Especially when you realize that nobody in this man's life cares enough about him to help him.


I'm pretty sure at this point that he's so far beyond help that everyone's given him up as an utterly lost cause.

Some people you just can't save.
 
2023-02-01 12:05:21 PM  
Nice Kimmel, let's demil and legitimize this asshole.
 
2023-02-01 12:05:28 PM  
He's trying to make a point about "rigged machines." His point is stupid-- let me be clear about that -- but I think it's kind of clever to connect the claw machine to his other point about "rigged machines."

He is, however, an idiot and I hope Dominion grinds him to dust.

While I agree, Jimmy has single-handedly brung us the answer to:

"Would My Coke-Pillow Guy" actually agree to this?"

Apparently the answer is "yes", and we can all benefit from knowing this.
 
2023-02-01 12:13:01 PM  
And yet, today there will be a disturbing number of people that write cheques to this guy in hopes he will get the election reversed.

He's not lying, he's utterly delusional.  He's part of the folie a deux but with way more than deux.  He sniffs his TFG's farts and thinks them a divine wind*.  Every court failure is a conspiracy against him, every disbarment an act of partisan retribution.  He really believes this shiat.

* The Japanese have a appropriate word for that.

I agree with that, but it sounds like Kimmel said he would interview Lindel if he did it from a claw machine as a joke with the expectation that Lindel would never agree to it. So Kimmel somewhat trapped himself by underestimating the shamelessness of Lindel, and thought it would be better at that point to lean into it than to give Lindel the ability to claim that Kimmel and others are so afraid of his message that they won't follow through on promises. Still dumb of Kimmel, but I would imagine he learned his lesson that there is no bottom for MAGA if publicity is involved.

Yeah. It's sad.
The hallmark of a true conspiracy theorist. It can never be proven wrong. It can only be proven bigger than they thought.

/MAGAt dies, gets to heaven, gets to ask God one question. He asks "God, why did you let the dems cheat and steal the 2020 election?" God replies, "no my son. The election wasn't stolen. That was the actual result. Biden won." MAGAt leans over to St. Peter and says "See, i knew it. The deep state is involved so much that even God is in on it!"
//I'm only half kidding. I've watched way too many Right-Wingers completely disregard basic facts and reality in order to keep believing such lunacy.

I think people overreact.  He's simply making a fool of himself, and not in a sympathetic way.  No regular Kimmel viewer is likely to be converted by hearing Pillow, and anyone who tunes in specifically for him isn't getting anything extra over what they usually hear from him.

If anything, he was portrayed as a victim who fell for the bullshiat that Trump was trying to sell but doesn't believe in himself.
