A video excerpt from liberal Michael Moore is taking the internet by storm. But it’s not Moore’s loyal fans singing his praises for a passionate political confession – it’s Donald Trump’s supporters who are doing the cheering.
In the speech that was given before an audience in Ohio, reportedly for the film “Trumpland,” Moore delves deep into the mindset of Trump’s appeal.
But first, he shockingly starts out by defending Trump supporters.
“They’re not racists or rednecks, they’re actually pretty decent people. So, after talking to a number of them, I sort of wanted to sort of write this.”
Moore went on to read a piece where he shares what he believes is the momentum behind the Trump movement. He recounts Trump’s visit to Detroit, where he had talked of the city’s dismal economy and it apparently left a deep impression on Moore.
Donald Trump came to the Detroit Economic Club and stood there in front of the Ford Motor executives and said: if you close these factories, as you are planning to do in Detroit, and rebuild them in Mexico, I am going to put a 35% tariff on those cars when you send them back and nobody’s going to buy them.
It was an amazing thing to see.
No politician — Republican or Democrat — had ever said anything like that to these executives. It was music to the ears of people in Michigan and Ohio and Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. The Brexit states. You live here in Ohio. You know what I am talking about.
Moore went on to talk of the forgotten man, who works hard — if he or she is lucky enough to have a job — and continually gets screwed by the very representatives who are supposed to have their backs.

Me too...Moore wants attention...and this is his way of getting it.
Don’t care about the movie.
We are using this in the heat of a political war. Why is this too hard to understand?
Before Moore went into that reading that everyone here is gaga about, he opined for minutes on end how the White Males in America are dying away - and good riddance....
The movie is a slam at Trump, a slam at the Baby Boomers, a slam at White Men...a Love Letter to Hillary.
If the YT link in post #4 is still up - watch the movie - it’s disgusting....that passage is Great -but extremely out of context tot he rest of it - maybe something only to share with others that won’t bother to see the rest of the movie...it doesn’t work for us.
MAGA
“He just attacked Trump and his supporters, so I don’t trust him”
So?
This isn’t about you. That video has been extremely helpful for our side.
You think the left is acting all squeamish when they use Colin Powell or Glenn Beck against us?
No one is asking you to like him on Facebook. Use what falls into your lap!”
True, but he’s going to attack him very soon.
Don’t worry. That 4 minute snippet is all most will hear
Here’s the rest of that video. His next words are “for a day, for a week”.

Moore goes on to utterly mock brexit, brexit supporters, Trump, and Trump supporters. He very clearly thinks we are all idiots. He’s an elitist, therefore he acts like his opinion is superior and automatically interchangeable with absolute objective fact. The audience doesn’t seem to realize they are being played.
Moore doesn’t believe for a second the reasons people are voting for Trump are coherent and rational. That fact is the fatal flaw hidden in what he’s saying.
Moore has 100% scorn and disrespect for why we are voting for Trump. That’s evidenced by his description of us - legal terrorists. In other words what Trump will do to the US is legal terrorism and Trump supporters by default are supporting legal terrorism.
Moore holds ZERO respect for Trump supporters, Trump, and Trump’s policy positions.

>> “It’s about God.” <<
AS always.
I am praying for the same kind of “act of God” that you appear to be.
Rev. Bill Cloud (Shorshim Ministries, GA) in his Yom Teruah message presented the very likely truth that America is not likely to become “Great Again” regardless of who is elected, because it doesn’t clearly show up in end time prophecies.
Paul wrote to the Thessalonians of a Falling Away, not a great return to God, for the world as a whole.
I hope your vision is true, but I’m not holding my breath.
.
It's a great passage - don't get me wrong.
BUT - Big But
This movie is damning and advertising this one portion of his movie IS promoting it.
Watch the whole thing - link above - it sucks!
Please everyone - watch the whole movie before praising Moore as a broken clock - he's not!
“Before Moore went into that reading that everyone here is gaga about, he opined for minutes on end how the White Males in America are dying away - and good riddance....”
The British wrote Yankee Doodle as an insult, and most of the lyrics are never sung today, but the colonialists picked it up and tossed it back in their face as their song of defiance.
You think they cared that badly, or did they use a good weapon when it fell into their hands?
That passage is sound, so use it against them!
Please leave the Bible out of this.
It’s anti trump. Even Moore would say so.
I would guess that deep inside, Moore really wants Trump to win. it’s better for his business. he’ll have 4-8 yrs of making fun of Trump. Whereas with Hillary, it’ll be just like the last 8 years..Moore has been quiet, especially compared to the W years.
.
Don’t for a moment think that Moore is capable of rationality, unless the Holy Spirit moves in his life.
.
And just what is wrong with being a redneck? A redneck is simply a poor white person who has to work outdoors under the sun for a living . . . nothing more, nothing less. And notice Moore makes a distinction between "racists" and "rednecks," as if being a redneck in itself, even without racism, were some sort of shame!
Good points.
.
The Bible cannot be left out of anything that regards God’s creation.
It is the operator’s manual for Planet Earth.
.
.
Its over his head.
.
That passage is the only sound thing in the movie - and he didn't write it soundly...praising this passage will backfire on us.
WATCH THE WHOLE MOVIE
I don’t trust Moore any farther than I can throw him. However, there are a certain percentage of liberals who aren’t going along with Hillary’s and Obama’s unholy alliance with crony capitalists.
