Mike Lindell whines over bank cancellations: 'I don’t know why you're doing this to me'
The bank is playing "hardball" with MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell.
The businessman and pitchman turned election denier claims he's trying to ward off the poorhouse by chatting with his bank "almost all afternoon."
"This was part of my big cancellation they did on me over the last three months and one piece where we deal with, our overseas vendors, we're trying to get that lined up and they're really playing — I don't know what the word would be — hardball."
The MAGA-devotee who confided that he is too cash-strapped to pay his lawyers fighting a defamation lawsuit discussed the dire state of his fledging home and attire company during an appearance on the "War Room" podcast with Stephen Bannon.
Lindell appeared lost as to why his bankers are expressing concerns with MyPillow's stability.
"I'm going, 'You guys have no risk here,'" he said. "I don't know why you're doing this to me."

Lindell says it must be some kind of widespread retribution for coming out swinging for former President Donald Trump and his tireless efforts to prove that the 2020 election was rigged against him.
For years the MyPillow founder and pitchman has been lodging accusations of election fraud and rigging the ballot against Trump against various entities.
Those efforts have resulted in a raft of lawsuits.
The tough road for MyPillow was so bumpy that Lindell has slashed prices on inventory for Black Friday "including mattress toppers, pillows, and slippers."
Discounts include a bathrobe valued at $159.98 now selling for $69.98, and a foam mattress valued at $899.98 that's now being sold for $439.99 — along with a free gift valued at $20 for customers who provide their email address to MyPillow.
Whatever the turbulence with his finances, Lindell remains hopeful of the future.
He said: "But anyway, it's one thing after another Steve, but at least I have the peace that everything's gonna be great going forward."
