The fanatical fan of Trump, Mike Lindell, better known as the ‘MyPillow Guy,’ was slammed by CNN host Anderson Cooper for promoting herbal supplement oleandrin as a cure COVID, calling it ‘the miracle of all time’. (Yep, pillow guy is on the board of the company that sells oleandrin.)
Anderson took him to task, saying he was a was ‘a snake oil salesman’ and endangering people who might believe his claim.
‘You are telling people this cures COVID, and you have nothing to prove it,’ said the host.
Cooper noted that Dr William Schaffner, professor of infectious diseases at the Vanderbilt University School of Medicine in Nashville, Tennessee, had called oleandrin ‘quackery’ and advised people: ‘Do not take it.’
Pillow guy went on to complain that ‘the media is trying to take away this amazing cure that works for everybody’ while Anderson lectured him: ‘You are not a scientist. A guy called in April saying he had this product. You are now on the board and going to make money from the sale of this product,’ adding ‘How do you sleep at night?!’
