A presenter for the conservative network Newsmax left an interview with Mike Lindell, An ardent Trump supporter and CEO of the pillow chain MyPillow, after this pushed for false allegations of electoral fraud.
The presenters Bob Sellers and Heather Childers They attempted to interview Lindell on Tuesday about Twitter’s decision to suspend his account and what many conservatives are calling “ cultural cancellation. ”
However, the businessman took advantage of the space to reiterate the same baseless conspiracy theories that former President Trump himself helped promote, especially about Dominion Voting Systems machines.
Faced with Lindell’s theories and false claims, the host interrupts and thanks him, but it reminds you that none of these claims could be verified. “We just want people to know that there is nothing substantial about it,” he said, reading a statement from the station itself: “While there was clear evidence of some cases of electoral fraud and irregularities, the results of the elections were certified in all states and Newsmax accepts the results as legal and final, the courts have supported that view as well. “
While Sellers was reading the message, Lindell is heard repeating these claims, even when Sellers is speaking.
Finally, the presenter says, “May I ask our producers if we can get out of here, please? I don’t want to have to talk about this all the time,” despite Lindell continuing his intervention.
Despite the fact that his partner, Childers, tries to intervene and save the moment, Sellers eventually gets up from his chair and leaves the camera, leaving the interview.
