Mike,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For someone who wants to represent the party of liberty, the rule of law as opposed to the rule of men, and rationality, this is a really terrible look:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Look @dougducey<\/a> you made the list and your crooked buddy @BrianKempGA<\/a>! @realDonaldTrump<\/a> please impose martial law in these 7 states and get the machines\/ballots! https:\/\/t.co\/GXWkRtHlRW<\/a><\/p>

\u2014 Mike Lindell (@realMikeLindell) December 20, 2020<\/a><\/p>Now yes, you did delete the tweet – but nobody’s fast enough to get past the DFL’s oppo researchers and media. But I repeat myself. <\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Berg’s 16th Law exists for a reason. While a prominent elected Democrat can beat the snot out of his girlfriend<\/a> with impunity, anything rash, impudent, ill-timed, context-mangled or yes, stupid, said by any Republican, anywhere, no matter how fringe, how isolated from power or the mainstream (which doesn’t describe Lindell, obviously), will be reported to the widest audience possible, in the least flattering context that can be engineered, and held against the entire part. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Love the pillows, Mike – but think<\/em>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

That is all. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
