Well, In 2020, CNN anchor Anderson Cooper referred to Lindell as a “snake oil salesman” for pushing oleander extract as a therapeutic treatment.
During his interview with Cooper, Lindell said promoting the unproven extract was what “Jesus has me do” and claimed the extract had been studied, though he failed to provide any details.
When pressed, Lindell shot back at Cooper: “Why would I do this? Ask yourself why would I ruin my reputation if I didn’t believe in this product?”
“Money,” answered Cooper. “You don’t have a great reputation. … You have an ‘F’ from the Better Business Bureau.”
