Mike Lindell
Mike Lindell was born on June 28, 1961, and from Mankato, Minnesota, U.S. He is an American inventor, businessman, entrepreneur, and the founder and CEO of My Pillow.
Recently, he was interviewed by CNN anchor Anderson Cooper to discuss Oleandrin, the controversial drug he’s pushing as a new “amazing” cure for coronavirus to Donald Trump.
In an Interview, Anderson Cooper asked about the drug’s legitimacy and safety “Where was the test? Where is it done? Who did the test? There’s been no Phase 1 and Phase 2 on this drug, sir.” Mike said, “You’re just misconstrued because the media is trying to take away this amazing cure that works for everybody.”
Furthermore, Anderson Cooper said “You have no medical background. You are not a scientist. A guy called you in April — said he had this product. You are now on the board and going to make money from the sale of this product. The reason he reached out to you, is because you have the ear of the president, so you keep getting to meet with the president. And you get to make money from this. How do you sleep at night?”
