Jimmy Kimmel's interview with Mike Lindell has both sides fired up

MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell’s much-anticipated appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live Wednesday got viewers riled up on both sides of the political spectrum.

For months, Lindell has been hyping conspiracy theories about fraud in the presidential election involving Dominion Voting Systems. Lindell has been claiming to have evidence of fraud, but has so far failed to share that supposed evidence. Not long into the interview, Kimmel pointed out that neither conservatives or liberals wanted Lindell to appear on the show, then immediately told Lindell what he thinks of the conspiracy claims.

“A lot of people didn’t want you to come on this show,” Kimmel said. “Liberals and conservatives, everybody told me don’t have you on the show, and they told you don’t go on the show.” “Yes they did,” Lindell agreed. “But I think it’s important to talk to each other,” Kimmel said, adding, “But I also — you know, I don’t like — I don’t think there’s any validity to any of this stuff that you’re saying.”

While there were many instances throughout the interview in which Kimmel told Lindell what he thought in no uncertain terms, the conversation was largely cordial. Still, Kimmel was castigated by conservatives.

Honestly I would have liked to see him be the one to give the counter speech to Biden last night.

I think Mike should be the face of the New Republican Party. Lets make it happen.

addiction. I saw his interview with Hunter BIDEN, and it was spot on when he told the Pillow jerk that he had a lot in common with Hunter, which to me flipped a light switch on about the mannerisms and behavior and their yuk-yuk dissmissiveness about their illness. Previously, before knowing about the crack, I thought the Pillow was just hideously Drumpf-deformed.
