MyPillow CEO and conspiracy superspreader Mike Lindell scored a higher net favorability rating than soon-to-be-ousted Governor Andrew Cuomo , GOP Senator Lindsey Graham , and New York Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in a new poll.
In a new The Economist/YouGov poll, respondents were asked to rate the favorability of a list of "political figures" that, for some reason, included Lindell.
The other "political figures" polled were Andrew Cuomo — who resigned from office on the last day of the Aug. 7-10 polling period, New York Attorney General Letitia James — whose devastating investigation led to Cuomo's resignation, New York Lt. Gov. Kathy Hochul — who will take over when Cuomo's resignation goes into effect, AOC, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis , Ohio iCongressman Jim Jordan , and Graham.
Due to a mixture of intense partisan division and the vagaries of name recognition, Lindell wound up with a higher net favorability than a good chunk of that list.
When asked "Do you have a favorable or an unfavorable opinion of" Lindell, 28 percent of all respondents said they viewed Lindell either "very favorably" (14%) or "somewhat favorably" (12%) versus 30 percent who said they viewed Lindell either "very unfavorably" or "somewhat unfavorably," a net favorability of minus two points.
Among Republicans, Lindell's net favorability was +39, and among Democrats, minus 38, with 44 percent of respondents saying they didn't know whether they held a favorable or unfavorable view.
Lindell's net favorability was higher than:
Cuomo's, whose minus 48-point net rating was largely consistent across party lines.
Graham, who scored a minus 15 that included 19 percent of Republicans who viewed him unfavorably.
AOC, whose minus 8 net rating included a sharply-divided +54 among Democrats and -54 among Republicans.
Jordan, who could only manage a minus 4 to be edged out by Lindell.
Hochul, whose anemic name recognition resulted in 10 percent favorable, 13 percent unfavorable, and a whopping 77 percent "don't know" for a net of minus three.
Even Desantis, who is popular among Republicans, could only tie Lindell's net rating at 32 percent favorable and 34 percent unfavorable.
James beat DeSantis and Lindell with 20 percent favorable versus 18 percent unfavorable.
Lindell's entire claim to political fame is his support for former President Donald Trump , and in particular his consistent and ongoing spreading of election lies and conspiracies that have almost a third of Republicans believing Trump will be reinstated to the presidency.
This does nothing but demonstrate how shallow the "thinking " is of many Americans.
It is probably a hopeful sign though that about 40% of responders appear to have never heard of him.
A comment by none other than Albert Einstein (PBUH) on this sorry state of affairs:
I know of two things that are infinite, the Universe and human stupidity.
And I'm not entirely sure about the former.
Speaking of "shallow" thinking how shallow is electing a POTUS that clearly has serious cognitive problems and an absentee VP?
They were voted out...
[deleted]
trmp and company weren't voted out?
Not at all.
You actually think donald is some good statesman...or even that smart...
Never saw Pence either...
Keep your nonsense to yourself please.
Sure ya did! Always 3-4 steps behind his "god" and tight lipped when he wasn't asleep
Ridiculous. Cognitively, Trump kicks kicks Bidens ass. Saying otherwise goes beyond obtuse into completely crazy.
Same goes for Pence and Harris when trying to compare who has "shown up" as VP. Saying Harris has shown up as much as Pence did is perhaps one of the greatest lies ever told. Well that and saying that Biden is as sharp as Trump was as POTUS.
The lies and disinformation just keeps rolling off all y'all tongues .... amaziing!
Right back at ya John, right back at ya.
Yup the Turd Reich got his big fat stinking psycho demented ass kicked by now President Joe Biden and that shitstain trumpturd is still licking his wounds and claiming he won.
Wow, someone's got their panties in a wad don't they?
Bullshit. donald is an idiot.
If you cannot see that or refuse to see that, not my problem.
Lol ... keep lying to yourself
Whatever helps you sleep at night.
You will now go down in my books as someone that thinks donald is smart....
Next you will tell me he has never lied...
Meh, i could care less what you think but would remind you that this isn't about you or me.
Now we could discuss the differences between cognitive decline and character or intelligence but i'm sure that discussion would be a waste of my time as well.
It would be a waste of mine time as you still seem to think donald is 'intelligent'...
Comical.
For someone that doesn't care what I think you sure cannot stop commenting can you...
Lol keep trying to deflect away from Bidens clear cognitive problems and Harris's obvious apathy towards her job.
Deflector shields on full baby, deflect!
Just keep denying what the previous administration was...
I did not deflect from anything. I never even brought up Biden...
Uh...Ender isn't the topic....
I've denied nothing
Sure you did, any sane untriggered person can see that.
Didn't say you did.
So if I didn't bring up Biden, how am I deflecting from Biden....
Note how someone has a seed up about Hunter Biden.
President Biden won!
Give it up!
Easy, i never said you brought up Biden, my comment clearly referenced Biden and Harris, you deflected to Trump and Pence. You made other deflections in there as well but the first one gets the point across quite nicely by itself. [deleted]
Nope. I made a comparison.
Anyway, I am done with this...

Donald Trump has said more stupid, ridiculous, things than the other 45 presidents combined.
So your defense of Biden's declining mental state is that Trump said a lot of ridiculous things?
I find that comment incredibly irrelevant and obtuse. Also to save you the breath, i really don't care what you think of that opinion.
Not in the least
You're doing just fine Ender.
Biden could lose 95% of his mind and still be more fit to hold office than Trump. The sad thing is you dont understand that.
Another absolutely ridiculous, clearly TDS driven comment.
Epic John .... even for you.
The cool thing is if you're attacking me you will always get the vote
Morons who love morons.
Gleaned from the poll data - 53% of conservatives have a favorable view of Lindell. (33% very, 20% somewhat)
Personally, I don't see that as even close to anything meaningful or a accomplishment.
Wow! He polls higher than trmp! Maybe he should run for president!
Not surprising. Many people on the list would win toxic awards no matter who they were up against.
Lindell was the least toxic of the bunch.
I suppose somebody had to win.
I wonder how may of the 53% bought a pillow...
They better buy lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of pillows and whatever else the my pillow shithead sells because Dominion's lawsuit against him, Powell and Ghouliani have been allowed to proceed.
I have a piece up now about Lindell running off stage (during his 72 hour election fraud bullshit) once the announcement was made and he didn't come back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have to check that out
