Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani appears briefly in a new article — mainly about how hard it is to get My Pillow CEO Mike Lindell to stop talking — drenched in sweat and barking.
The setting was the Republican National Convention where Lindell's conservative broadcasting network had set up a booth for a live stream with Giuliani, the Washington Post reported Wednesday.
"During breaks, a woman wiped sweat off Giuliani’s bald head," writes Ben Terris. He then quotes Giuliani telling the woman, “Sponge bath for the dog...Woof woof!”
Terris then goes back to his initial subject, Lindell's inability to stop talking.
"For the past 3½ years, the mustachioed, motor-mouthed salesman hasn’t stopped talking about how the 2020 election was stolen," Terris writes. "It has cost him."

Lindell faces a $1.3 billion defamation lawsuit over baseless claims that Dominion Voting Systems stole ballots from former President Donald Trump and was ordered in February to pay $5 million to a man who accepted his challenge to "Prove Mike Wrong."
Last month, Lindell's lawyers in the case, which he has vowed to appeal, ditched him.
They aren't the only ones who need a break from Lindell, Terris writes.
"Even some of Lindell’s Republican compatriots would rather he give the election denialism a rest," Terris writes. "And yet, despite the legal threats, the financial drain and the political liabilities, Lindell appears constitutionally unable to stop talking."
This issue has staff popping up at the end of Terris' article, this time begging their boss for food.
“We need to get something to E-A-T, before we D-I-E,” a member of Lindell’s entourage said.
"Forty minutes later," Terris writes, "Lindell was still not done talking."
