Mike Lindell’s Potential Run for RNC Chair Mocked: ‘I Don’t Trust This Idiot to Fix a Cup of Coffee’

The MyPillow CEO would make a great RNC chair ”given his demonstrated willingness to throw millions of dollars at anything regardless of rationality,“ one user wrote

After Mike Lindell — the MyPillow CEO and MAGA loyalist — floated the idea of challenging Ronna McDaniel as head of the Republican National Committee, he doubled down on the matter in a discussion with fellow conspiracy theorist Steve Bannon on Real America’s Voice, prompting social media users to mock Lindell, the RNC and pro-Trump individuals at large.

In a brief clip from the cable network’s “The War Room,” Lindell claimed he had been doing his “due diligence the past few days,” meeting with big donors and state leaders to discuss the future of the political committee.

It didn’t take long for reactions to pour in on Twitter, from everyday citizens to political analysts, who laughed at the the MyPillow guy — currently under FBI investigation for identity theft and for conspiring to damage a protected computer linked to an alleged voting equipment security breach in Colorado — and his propensity for successfully running an organization.

“I don’t trust this !diot to ‘fix’ a cup of coffee,” one user wrote, mocking Lindell’s ability to run an organization.

McDaniels has been slavishly loyal to Trump. Like ridiculous levels of boot licking.

I don't know why any of these fools haven't seen the game they are in and checked out.

an "expert" on The Constitution was going to speak. Yeah, sure, expert. Start of the rumoring about Obama, his birth, Sharia law, etc. -- dirty, below-the-belt conspiracy crap. Just racism.

Suck up all of the Democratic racists (ie strom Thurmond, Jesse Helms, et al). This was then followed up by Reagan and the marriage of the Republican Party to the religious right wing of the moral majority.

It’s been a clusterfuck of a party since then.

Even thought the artwork is somewhat dated, it is quite symbolic of the cruel joke their RNC now is.....

It's a feature, not a bug and also not one damn bit funny.

Mitt: Dear niece, I tried to tell you that loyalty only runs one way with Trump.
Ronna: You were right. Maybe I’ll get a job with Fox News.
Mitt: Maybe you should just take a break from politics.

Is Twitter now censoring words other than the usual four-letter ones?

Sorry for asking, I guess. Maybe this is something the kids are doing and I'm just too old and out-of-touch.
