It’s so weird that I saw those commercials on tv for 3 years, and then eventually the pillow I had been sleeping on for decades finally crapped out. I WAS going to buy one of his. At this point he had ZERO voice on politics. He was just a pillow salesman.

And then right before I bought a new pillow, he goes on this rant about trump, and america, and blah blah blah.

I didn’t buy the pillow.

Think about that. He had a business that had been working fine for years. Nobody had ANY opinion on him, except “he’s the guy who sells pillows”. Thats it. Thats all he had to do. Just sell pillows, and don’t bring politics or religion, or whatever batshit conspiries he holds into the public eye. Just sell pillows. Thats all you had to do. You had one job.

Instead, now everybody knows he’s a nutjob, and his business is failing. Oh well. So sad. Here’s a tiny violin.

The dude had his shit on WALMART shelves. He literally could’ve just coasted for the rest of his life and make a crazy amount of money on those shitty pillows. He had to work harder to crash this thing than he would’ve to just maintain the cash cow. Moron.

I’ve used one of those pillows pre-political My Pillow era.

It was one of the worst pillows I’ve ever used.

My mother bought me one, slightly after he started getting political. I was like, ehhh I might as well use it. I didn’t buy it, so why not? Worst fucking pillow I’ve ever had. Then later after it was clear he was insane, she bought me some sheets. Hate to admit it but the sheets were actually really good.
