MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell make his victory back by Jimmy Kimmel Tuesday night comedy show.
But since he appeared from within the confines of an arcade claw machine, it ended up being even more dismaying than the first.
“To help him overcome his debilitating fear of machines, we installed him in a gripper,” Kimmel quips at the beginning of the segment. “I don’t know why I decided you should be there,” he added before saying that he was surprised when Lindell accepted his one-of-a-kind offer, despite Lindell previously claiming it was due to his unvaccinated status.
Lindell’s expense jokes only continued from there as Kimmel loudly wondered why people didn’t take him seriously.
The late night host asked Lindell why he only went with four votes by the Republican National Committee though for many months advertised that he was “ahead of every poll” to become the new president of the influential Republican Party.
“Do you believe this is also a rigged election?” Kimmel asked.
Lindell replied that he did not believe so, saying that “because there are [were] no machines involved,” leading Kimmel to quip: “So whatever you’re saying you’re going to lose, right?”
“You don’t trust machines,” Kimmel continued, before asking: “Does that apply to sewing machines… what about ice machines?”
The pair discussed Lindell’s ongoing, unverified accusations of voting machine fraud before actor James Adomian then burst into the scene playing Lindell, much to the amusement of the outside maven. real life.
“What kind of dark magic is going on,” Adomian shouted in amazement as he saw the real-life Lindell inside the claw machine. “Don’t worry, sweet boy, I have a 1/4 full pillowcase right here!”
Even before Lindell’s arrival surfaced, Kimmel broke a liner.
“From whatever planet he comes from, Mr. My pillow, Mike Lindell is here to finally answer the question, ‘What if Ted Lasso was on the FBI’s watch list?'” Kimmel said in his late-night monologue on Tuesday night . He explained to the audience and viewers at home that he just agreed put Lindell back on his show as a guest if he “agrees to do the interview from inside Dave & Buster’s claw machine.”
And while Lindell told anyone who would listen that Kimmel wanted him to stay in an incubator because of his COVID-19 vaccination status, Kimmel clarified, “I am not insisting that Mike be in a cage. glasses because he has not been vaccinated. I insisted he was in a claw machine because it was hilarious,” adding, “This is not a political statement. Just for fun.”
Before the late-night show on Tuesday night, the pillow moderator took to Facebook and joke that Dave & Buster’s claw machine can be “cheated”.
“Maybe I’ll find out that the claw game was rigged, huh, the stuffed toy,” he said, alluding to his relentless bragging about 2020 election fraud. base.
Before showing up late at night, on Monday night, in a phone interview with The Daily BeastLindell admits that his second visit will most likely be a “humiliating” experience for him.
“I am willing to bear the humiliation to help save our country,” he declared.
Since first appearing on Kimmel in April 2021the pillow mogul was determined to return to the show, all in the hope that he could convince viewers that his conspiracy theories would lead to Donald Trump becoming reinstalled as president.
The biggest humiliation, however, probably came at the end of the interview with Lindell when Kimmel asked his first guest, Pamela Anderson, if she had ever met the CEO of MyPillow.
“I don’t even know who it is,” she replied.
