We all live in worlds of our own to some extent but Mike Lindell simply does not bother to visit this world often enough to figure out what the people here are thinking and feeling. He’s got a whacky notion now that he’s going to show up next week in Chicago at the Democratic National Convention and “flip democrats.” Really? Is the convention like a coffee shop and we’re like pancakes and eggs? According to Lindell “everybody is interested in election security.” I’ll grant that premise only if we define the term “election security.” Because Lindell’s problem from the beginning is he simply does not understand how the voting system works. There is a paper trail along with the machines. Maybe he should ask the post office how they do packages and it might make a little more sense to him.
“Well, like our great real president always tells me, he says, Mike, he goes, you get these big applauses, but that’s cuz the people want what I’m trying to get to,” Lindell explained. “They want secure elections, everybody does.”
“I can go anywhere,” he insisted. “I’m going to Chicago next week for the Democrat convention to be there and to flip Democrats.”
Lindell said he had previously visited Chicago, and some Democrats told him they were voting for Trump instead of President Joe Biden.
“And over 100 countries have banned early voting and mail-in voting,” he remarked. “Pretty soon, you’ll get to, why don’t we start voting on the next election four years from now, right when this one’s done? It’s crazy!”
If you want to hit this link and listen to this clown that’s up to you. I hope Mikey is ready to be laughed at, if not asked to leave. I don’t know how these things work but a crazy MAGA walking into a place where tens of thousands of Democrats are gathered does not strike me as a good thing. And if he opens his mouth up about who’s the “real president” it’s likely to get ugly. Good luck, Mike.
He’ll be lucky if they don’t “flip” him.
He’d better be wearing a batch of his pillows to soften his landing when he gets presented with the Grand Order of the Boot
“Lindell said he had previously visited Chicago, and some Democrats told him they were voting for Trump instead of President Joe Biden.”
I’ll take ‘Things that definitely never happened’, for $10.00 thanks.
Lindell is beginning to be scary. Although I wish I had seen the handwriting on the wall and sold him a scam of some sort like Dennis Mongomery, the Scorecard & Hammer guy did. If only I had some invention that could prove what Lindell wanted proven — and wash clothes or dishes, as well.
Well Duhhh… nobody’s voting for Joe Biden – he’s out of the race.
Perhaps Lindell might mention some of those alleged 100 countries so we could, in fact, check out the veracity of his statement? I checked and the Wiki entry on “Postal voting” has a map that features what looks like a 100 or more countries that, as the legend states, “have no postal voting system in place” (but that’s not really the same thing as “banning” the process). It should be noted that a large number of those countries aren’t exactly well-known or well-respected for the integrity of their elections (e.g., Russia, China, Saudi Arabia, Venezuela). But, it should also be noted that some of these countries also have compulsory (or mandatory) voting and the laws are enforced (Brazil, Argentina, the DRC).
Wouldn’t you have to be on a list to.even get into the Democratic Convention, considering how many Big Names are gonna be there?
Geez, I went to SF cons for two decades,,and security was volunteer, but you could get into the art show,and dealers’,rooms without a con badge. My Mom liked to hit those two rooms, so I bought her a one day membership. If amateur security is important at a hobby con, then I would imagine that, between paid professionals, police, and Secret Service, no one is very likely to just waltz in without being scrutinized. Pretty sure there’s a list you have to be on and a nametag you need to be wearing.
But go ahead, Mikey. Try it. Chicago PD is pretty notorious. I will be thrilled to.see your mug shot when you are arrested for trespassing.
