When MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell announced that his company had committed to producing 50,000 masks per day, President Trump remarked Lindell’s action is “what America is all about.”
But when Lindell took the stage after President Trump made the announcement, Lindell didn’t take the chance to pat himself on the back for helping the country in a time of need. Instead Lindell pleaded with Americans to move toward God during the pandemic, and media elitists and Democrats were livid.
MSNBC host Chris Hayes lamented the daily White House briefings are “bad for the country” because they give people like Lindell a platform to mention God.
Everyone’s favorite fake news reporter, CNN’s Jim Acosta, went further saying Lindell’s appearance was nothing but a “PR stunt.”
Lindell responded to the criticism on Fox Business News. He told host Lou Dobbs, “I’ll tell you what, I heard Jim Acosta attack me too, and he was 10 feet from me in the Rose Garden. This is just evil, Lou. This is evil. I’m appalled by the journalists that I see there. I used to think that they are not really that evil. Well, yes, they are.”
But not every media type was on board with Acosta. MSNBC host Joe Scarborough praised Lindell for retooling his company to produce critical medical supplies. Scarborough, who despite being a former Republican Congressman hates President Trump with a passion, said, “If I had the capability of making 50,000 masks, I’d like to make 50,000 masks. I can’t. That guy can. I salute him.”
