Mike Lindell calls Ron DeSantis a ‘Trojan Horse’
The Hill ^ | 03/03/23 10:55 AM ET | BY JULIA SHAPERO

My Pillow CEO Mike Lindell, an ally of former President Trump, accused Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) on Thursday of being a “Trojan horse,” calling into question the governor’s conservative credentials.

“The media is covering up for Ron DeSantis,” Lindell asserted while speaking on the convention center floor of the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in a video shared online. “He is a Trojan Horse; he is the Trojan Horse. Do not believe anything you’re reading by the media about Ron DeSantis.”

Lindell pointed to DeSantis’s battle with Disney, which ignited after the company pushed back on the state’s Parental Rights in Education law. The law, which became known to critics as the “Don’t Say Gay” law, limited instruction on sexual orientation and gender identity in elementary schools.

“Now I’ll tell you what: Ron DeSantis — and he’s got money behind him — did he do anything for Disney? Remember that was the big thing, you’re gonna go after Disney,” Lindell said. “He did nothing, they got everything they wanted, everything.”

DeSantis has long battled Disney and on Monday signed a bill ending Walt Disney World’s self-governing status and establishing a new state-controlled district, giving the governor more power over the area. The company has maintained control over the Reedy Creek Improvement District since the late 1960s.

Lindell’s criticisms of DeSantis echo those voiced by Trump, who has previously labeled the Florida governor a “RINO,” or Republican in Name Only. The former president has also attacked DeSantis’s COVID-19 response, taking aim at his decision to institute a lockdown and his support for vaccines.

All this infighting could have been avoided if Trump didn’t run. He had his chance and blew it!

Same here. I tried every brand of pillow, and woke up with either head ache or neck pain. My Pillow is good at least 24/25 nights. It can get bunched up and can cause neck pain once in a blue moon. Works best if bumped from both ends to fluff it up each night before using. ALso helps to throw it in the dryer for a few minutes.

You can’t really say Lindell had no evidence because it was never allowed to surface in any court. There was a movie called thousand mules (going by my 82 year old memory) which had ploenty of evidence of shenanigans during election.

Probably but results are what matters and he got none.

What I do is put the pillow in a quilted pillow protector before the pillowcase, but don’t zip it closed. It stays loose so it can be molded how I want it. If the protector is zipped, it’s too firm.

Do you take one of them on cruises? I know there’s a travel size and I’m thinking of ordering one for our cruise next year.

Oh man, I should take one on the cruise! Why I did not think of that? I am never comfortable with the pillows on ship. Usually the mattresses are good, but not on Norwegian Escape ship. They were Too firm!

That makes sense. I will have to give it a try. Thanks for the idea.

If you look at who is funding him and supporting him he is a rino. What's worse is he is letting Rove and company use him as their guy. Just do some research on who his biggest backers are and you will find out who is behind him. I think he's making a big mistake. I would respect him if he ran without the support of the anti Trump rino class. They will ruin him in the end.

“Hence, it can be seen, you lack ability to assemble data, duscern and connect facts, and draw proper conclusions.”

So, yeah when you attack somebody personally and not the issue, that is called an ad hominem attack, Mr. Density.

...and genius, above it is discern, not, “duscern”.
