Mike Lindell pranked on live TV by fake Trump caller

Within the first few hours of a 48-hour livestream to cut the digital ribbon on his “free speech”-focused social media platform, MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell got hit with two prank callers.

The first claimed to be a reporter for The Wall Street Journal. The other was “Donald Trump.”

“We have the president here, our real president, everyone,” Mr Lindell said on Monday. “Hello, Mr. President.”

It was not – the voice on the other end of the line shouted something incoherently, then “bitches.”

“You see what they’re doing?” Mr Lindell said. “They’re attacking us.”
