David Hogg's Pillow Company Looks to Be DOA a Month After Media Hype
Newsbusters ^ | March 13, 2021 | P.J. Gladnick

Whatever happened after all the media hype about gun-control activist David Hogg starting a pillow company? We haven't heard a peep in more than a month, since several outlets sounded the trumpets of hope....and ka-ching.

Meryl Kornfield of the Washington Post went into a state of high gush on February 10 as she excitedly announced that "Parkland survivor David Hogg launches his own company in a ‘pillow fight’ against Mike Lindell." There is a GoodPillow handle on Twitter but it has been as silent as Hogg himself since the day you gushed over both.

Keep reading to find out the HILARIOUS Karmatic Kickback of the how Newsweek, while hyping Hogg's non-existent pillow company, probably also inadvertently destroyed it while still in the cradle.

Hogg learend the hard way that very few people become wealthy starting their own company and government is the #1 reason why.

So damn true. I learned that back in the 1970s when I was 14 trying to sell house plants by the side of the road and the cops came and confiscated them from me because I didn’t a have license. I remember asking the cops, “If I sold crap plants, why would I need a license? I would be out of business very fast”

That headline is uniquely deserving of the “sad trombone” “womp-womp-womp-womp”. :P

No business sense. Now if he really wanted to capitalize on his fame, he should have started a bicycle company. What better way to get to a protest, block traffic with Hogg bike rallies, and appeal to his scizoid base. Think of the marketing: “Every bike frame guarenteed to contain steel from a melted down gun.”

Generally, most Liberals seem to feel that they are “entitled” to free stuff; so why would they buy anything? And if they must, they will generally get the cheapest they can find, so money can be spent on status symbols to impress other liberal friends

Those who work for a living, earn money in excess of Welfare levels, and we decide to purchase what we want based on quality or perceived value. This is where producing a superior product finds its market

For some strange reason, the young Hogg just couldn’t get his Fudge-packin Finest” pillow company off the ground. All those $15/hr comrades he hired will have to apply for new jobs at the solar panel factory now.

Young Hogg had posted photos of Chippendales throughout his shop in hopes of providing Mr. Lindell some stiff competition. In retrospect, this proved to be a limp attempt.

Hogg was biting too many of them. Couldn’t sell enough as the defect rate was through the roof.

Maybe he can do a song and dance routine with his skinhead lesbo Cuban fellow “survivor.”

I think people would have been afraid to put their face on a pillow that a rabid ranting moron like Hogg might have salivated on. Might catch something.

Normally I hate patent trolls, but I will make an exception in this case.

The young child is learning so much about starting a business in the US it might have corrected his political views?
