Is Mike Lindell wishing to go to jail?

 This is where the stress that goes with supporting Donald Trump really goes off the page.

MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell has made some strange statements in recent days.

First, he claimed he was heading to Chicago for the Democratic convention, which starts tomorrow, in the hope of converting some Democrats to "Trumpism", or, in other words, getting them to flip and vote for the embattled former president. Not. Gonna. Happen.

Now, as Farron Cousins explains, Lindell has dug a deep hole for himself with unverified claims that a charity he started for recovering drug addicts is being investigated by the Minnesota Attorney General's office. 

What Farron doesn't point out is that Lindell is, in fact, making this up, not so much for sympathy points and pillow sales for his flailing company, but to instead stain the administration of Governor Tim Walz, the Democratic VP candidate. As Farron does note, Lindell's latest tall tale has not been picked up by major media outlets, and probably won't. You know what they say about the boy who cried wolf.....!!
