Trump-a-holic My-Pillow founder sued for $1.3-billion
-
Yet another Trump-allegiant fool has followed the Great Orange Don-ald into a Trumpster Fire of legal trouble...
The Wall Street Journal is reporting that Dominion Voting Machines has filed a defamation and libel lawsuit against MyPillow founder Mike Lindell. (Edit: Click the link above... the words Wall Street Journal... will take you to their article)...
Seems his continual claims that the company's voting machines were mis-counting election results (presumably in favor of Biden), even after manual recounts had proved that the results were accurate, are now under intense scrutiny.
Like Rudy Giuliani, Mr. Lindell has put his dick in a grinder by being very careful to NEVER repeat those claims in any arena where truth is required (like a court, or under deposition, or under oath), but continually made those same claims in public forums... even after proof was provided specifically to him.
This did a GREAT job of shielding him from perjury charges, but set him up for a slam-dunk defamation suit - where there has to be evidence you KNEW the information you were peddling was false... evidence that he created and strengthened by his unwillingness to repeat those lies under oath!
Seems Mr. Lindell may be following Mr. Trump and Mr. Giuliani into the poor-house!
$1.3billion is a WHOLE LOTTA overpriced pillows!
THIS is what happens when you are in a cult-of-personality, and the object of your devotion is a narcissistic, pathological liar!
-
LOL, you voted for a pathological liar.
"Come on man, I'm the guy who ......."
For decades he has lied about the truck driver who had the accident with his 1st wife. Inattention by his wife was determined to be the cause of the accident. The police also reported that there were no signs that the truck driver had consumed any alcohol prior to the accident.
Biden has lied about pretty much everything.

First: WTF? The posting and article are on Trump-a-holic Mike Lindell, not Joe Biden... If you've got a beef with Joe Biden's "memorial" tonight to the 500,000+ dead in the US from Covid, start your own topic!
But on another level:
Really? Have you absolutely no heart or empathy for someone simply because you disagree politically?
Have you no compassion at all?
... purely for political points?
Whether Joe Biden's first wife contributed to the accident, or whether the truck driver was drunk (no investigation was done because: in 1972 we didn't vilify drunk drivers the way we do today... that didn't start happening until the 1980's and MADD) if of no consequence!
Neither the presence nor absence of alcohol was shown: no breathalyzer was taken (the technology was in its infancy in 1972, and not in widespread use in the US), and no blood was drawn... which also wasn't unusual in 1972! [See what a 2-minute Wikipedia search - with a few clicks on references - will teach you?]
Either way, Joe Biden was left with a dead wife, a dead baby daughter, and 2 badly injured little boys - in an ER - on what should have been one of the happiest days of his life!
This is the kind of dark and dangerous rhetoric: insistence on purity for the other side; and piety for your own - that will be the death of our Democracy...
I'm no fan of Joe Biden's politics - his huge spending plans are going to bring back economic inflation like we haven't had since the 1970s - but he's still a human being - and one who has suffered numerous, terrible tragedies in his life.
He may not be my favorite President of all time, but he's not a comic-book villain, and he IS a human being!

You will make any excuse for Biden won't you.
You are the one that brought "pathological liar" into the discussion, so I ran with it.
-
The police did not smell alcohol on him, nor did he seem impaired.
It's odd how you will make excuses for Biden's 50 years of lying about the guy being drunk when even you admitted they didn't do a breathalyzer or draw blood back then.
His wife was deemed at fault for being "inattentive".
Just because his wife and infant daughter died in the accident, does not give him the right to lie about the truck driver for 50 years.
Only a piece of garbage would think it's ok for someone to use their bully pulpit to ruin someone's life based on lies.
You brought up "pathological liar" due to your TDS, then defend a pathological liar.

Who is making excuses?
This topic is about Mike Lindell - the "My Pillow" entrepreneur who is crashing and burning because of his undying love for all things Dump - er, Trump - and you keep changing the focus of the conversation!
Myopic much?

Once again and I'll type it slow for you.
You brought up "pathological liar" and I countered with my own example of one, whom you voted for and keep defending.

You are incapable of looking at historical facts in historical context, aren't you. I've already explained this:
- The accident happened in 1972
- MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Driving) - one of the FIRST to begin to crusade against impaired driving, and to increase the penalties for it - was founded in 1980.
- For the time, he'd have to have been falling-down-drunk for the police to have attributed the accident to drunk-driving, and there wasn't any "special penalty" for it, either!
- What DID exist in 1972 was a predisposed belief that women were poor drivers.
... even you admitted they didn't do a breathalyzer or draw blood back then.
This is true... they could have flown in a prototype breathalyzer from the UK or Germany at the time... it would have taken a cargo plane and a small (larger than a pickup) truck to get them there, not to mention a couple of days to pack up all the components! My guess is, they didn't do that because it was Joe Biden, and they knew the husband of the woman killed in the accident would one-day become President!
As for drawing blood, to what end? There were no "special penalties" for driving drunk back then! In fact, if the police pulled you over for drunk driving, they'd impound your car for 24-hours and put you in a special cell they had in jail: the "drunk tank" - where you'd sober up and they'd release you! Worst you'd get would be a citation for public intoxication!
[For a reference, check out the fantastic Alfred Hitchcock film North by Northwest Cary Grant's character is involved in a crash as he was intentionally made quite drunk by the "bad guys" - and the police lock him up in the "drunk tank", releasing his into the care of his mother the next morning - a Hitchcock flair, as Grant's character was clearly in his 30's)
His wife was deemed at fault for being "inattentive".
I haven't made any claims about who was at fault, and I'm not sure any police report of the time would have termed it that way. Back then, they often tried to make sure accidents were just that: accidents! They wouldn't list "fault", rather they would list contributing factors. It was because of the way insurance was written back then....
Just because his wife and infant daughter died in the accident, does not give him the right to lie about the truck driver for 50 years.
Look, if he was going around saying "It's been 40 years, but I'm still pissed at Bill Smith of 1234 Main Street, Dover, DE who killed my wife and child while driving drunk in 1972" that'd be one thing... but if the man - regardless of the lack of proof (because it wasn't taken back then) - believes the other driver was impaired, so be it.
He's not on a campaign to slander the other driver (who can't prove he wasn't drunk, either! There's no proof either way, so its he-says/he-says)... in fact, he's not even on a campaign against drunk driving! He's trying to relate his own personal loss to the loss of 100's of thousands of families - survivors - who have lost loved ones to COVID-19.
Your inability to see that, and to have some level of empathy for all those who have lost loved ones in this pandemic, says a lot about you, and nothing about Biden.
Only a piece of garbage would think it's ok for someone to use their bully pulpit to ruin someone's life based on lies.
As noted above: the speech wasn't about the accident, wasn't even about drunk driving... it was about sharing the sense of loss, about empathizing with people who are in mourning.
I'm going to leave the "piece of garbage" part of your comment to others to evaluate...
You brought up "pathological liar" due to your TDS, then defend a pathological liar.
Joe Biden will, no doubt, lie in his term in office... they all do... but he's got a long way to go before he reaches the mountain-top in that department. Donald Trump lied more in his first 2-days in office than Biden has in 30+... and he wasn't even trying! LOL
So, what's say we close up this rabbit hole - this trip into your Wonderland of deflection - and get back to the post itself:
Mike Lindell is going to have to spend 1/2 his fortune on lawyers, another half on advertising to save his now-foundering company, and give the other half to the voting machine companies for slandering them....
oh wait! That's too many halves! Oh no! He's bankrupt! Well, now his bank account will look like his morals!
Maybe Donald Trump should have pardoned him? (OOPS! This is CIVIL court! There are no pardons in CIVIL law!)
Or, maybe Donald Trump will give him $millions to bail him out? NOPE! He'll call him a LOSER and distance himself from him as fast as a hummingbird's wings can flap! Because that's the kind of man he is!

I also used the words "this" and "that" and "and" a lot - perhaps there's a deflection point you can find in that, too?

Keep making excuses for Biden's 5 decades of lying about the truck driver.
It is amazing the mental gymnastics you liberals will resort to, to defend Biden.
Just admit it, you have lied the whole time that you are a conservative. You're just some blue-haired, man-hating lesbian Antifa member.

And this relates to Mike Lindell how?
Swing and a miss! Strike!
