Moore: 'Something crazy' might happen to Trump
WND ^ | 8 Dec 16 | Chelsea Schilling

Posted on 12/09/2016 3:06:37 AM PST by SkyPilot

Does leftist activist and filmmaker Michael Moore know something the rest of us don’t?

Moore predicted President-elect Donald Trump may not become America’s next president, saying anything can happen between now and Jan. 20, 2017.

“Nothing anyone has predicted has happened,” Moore said of the 2016 election when he was a guest Wednesday evening on the “Late Night with Seth Meyers.” “The opposite has happened.”

Moore continued with what he called his “prediction”: “[Trump] is not president of the United States yet. He’s not president, right? He’s not president ’til noon on Jan. 20 of 2017. That is – what are we, Wednesday the 9th? – so that’s more than six weeks away. … So is it possible, that within the next six weeks, something else might happen? Something crazy. Something that we’re not expecting.”

Moore did not elaborate on what that “something crazy” might be.

However, he did say the Electoral College was a “stopgap” measure to keep a “madman who wants to be king” out of the White House. He vowed to “lead the charge” in abolishing the Electoral College.

“Here’s the Democrats’ biggest problem, and this includes people who voted for Hillary: they don’t act like they won. They won. She’s 2.7 million votes ahead of Trump tonight – almost 3 million, almost as many votes as Obama got in 2012. This is the second time this has happened in 16 years. It happened with [Al] Gore where they win the popular vote but lose the White House. We have to get rid of this Electoral College. Yes, it’s going to happen. I will lead the charge. … The majority of my fellow Americans do not want [Trump] in the White House.”

"At the very least, the Secret Service should question him."

The Secret Service should investigate Facebook, which is providing a platform for a group vowing to shut-down the inauguration.

Somehow these two statements made together do not compute.

At 450 pounds Michael Moore must be at least somewhat familiar with the concept of fatal heart attacks.At age 70 there's no guarantee that DJT won't suffer such an even between now and 1/20.

Of course that's not what he was hinting at...

As for the ban on cops and reporters at meetings, MacAuley explained: “Our meetings are safe zones in which people want to speak freely without knowing that a police officer is listening, or thinking that they could be quoted in the press.

If the Alt-right the made the same comment about 'cops and reporters' being banned - the Washington Post and New York Times would NOT stay silent... AND the FBI would NOT be sitting on their hands.

_____________

Hey Bob Woodward - giving a pass to one side is a form of FAKE NEWS. It's why the press isn't trusted.

Who watches Seth Meyers? Honestly I haven’t watched one of these shows since Jay Leno’s first stint.

Did Seth weep and cry like a baby like he did the day after the election?

I think he’s making a direct threat.

With a body like that, I think the only direct threat Moore could make would be to sit on Trump.

Love that picture by the way. Body language tells it all. Is Seth concerned that Moore might cut loose with a huge fart?

The Secret Service should bring him in for questioning.

They should but President Obama will not allow justice to be done, especially when it's counter to his own agenda. Federal agencies are just thugs for our US quasi-dictator at this time.

I'm just hoping that all the real Americans in those organizations are keeping their heads low and making a list of all the traitors to present to the Trump Administration. After Trump's expert response to the recount, I expect he's ready for anything they might try next.

Even if they could somehow turn the electors, it would be invalid because of the threats and intimidation the other electors would reveal.

Can someone tell me where in the Constitution/Federalist Papers it says the electoral college was designed to keep “crazies” out of the WH? I may have missed that class. I’m asking this seriously!

The One World communist people involved in creating the socialist/fascist government are NOT going to just go away. The see their plans in Europe unraveling and in the US the last 3 elections witnessed an increasing number of conservatives elected.

The NWO socialists are FREAKING OUT.

I do not know why I think of something like this when it comes to Moore and his remarks, but I can not help doing so.

Back a little over twenty five years ago, I knew someone at work who in turn had a friend who apprenticed to be a plumber. As part of getting work experience, this fellow apprenticing to become a plumber one day had to go to a local hospital and clean out the drainage pipes in the operating rooms. I wonder if Moore has ever had to do something like that in his life, for all of the lecturing and posturing he engages in?

Federalist #68 conveys the original intent of the Electoral College.

Thus “...the immediate election should be made by men most capable of analyzing the qualities adapted to the station, and acting under circumstances favorable to deliberation, and to a judicious combination of all the reasons and inducements which were proper to govern their choice.

A small number of persons, selected by their fellow-citizens from the general mass, will be most likely to possess the information and discernment requisite to such complicated investigations.”

Also, Federalist #39 emphasizes, “In requiring more than a majority, and particularly in computing the proportion by states, not by citizens, it departs from the national and advances towards the federal character; in rendering the concurrence of less than the whole number of States sufficient, it loses again the federal and partakes of the national character.”

She’s 2.7 million votes ahead of Trump tonight >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Wrongo.

Not according to the constitution of the UNited states.

And not only that. No one has yet calculated the source of what Hillary calls winnng the popular vote.Who are those 2.7 million people? 63 million people voted for Trump, and about 100 million voted.

In fact Hillary was highly unpopular, that’s why she lost. Hillary also lost because she did not hoodwink enough people in the right locations proportionately to the electoral college vote. Hillary won only in the urban America while Trump won both urban and rural voters.

The meme that Hillary won is a complete falsehood.The constitution has not, nor ever will recognize “popular “ vote.

Now the left is attacking electors to get them to abstain or vote for others rather than Donald Trump, so that he will total less than 270 electoral votes. That’s not going to happen either, as America watches these closet radicals become publicly manifest by trying to destroy America, by using the electoral system to destroy itself through disenfranchising voters.

Not happening folks. Leftists should simply slip quietly into the dust bin ( crapper) of history , where they belong. America has spoken. They want to be rid of political correctness as a substitute for enforcing the laws of our country.America has rejected the left’s assumption, a notion that they have some form of moral justification, a false superiority for evolving a nascent totalitarian government in America.

Get it right America! Into the dumpster lefties, where you belong.Get there and compost quietly and thoroughly. America never wants to see you in office again.

If Hillary had won and the alt-right was threatening "surprises" and threatening to "shut down" the inauguration, the MSM would - with wailing and gnashing of teeth - elevate it to the lead story of the week. But, since the threats are coming from the left, this story has barely crept into the MSM at all.
