I'm surprised Trumpy hasn't had this guy at the WH yet.
My kind of made in America business model. How simpler can it f'ing get? Pillows. Kudos to that guy.

I am a channel surfer and find myself always stopping at the infomercials. This one also caught my eye. $60 is steep but considering we spend most of our time sleeping well worth it if it relieves ur neck pain.
