FULL TITLE: Michael Moore Thinks Donald Trump Wrote NYTimes Op-Ed Piece: “He’s the master of distraction, he wants us to believe there are adults in the room”

Michael Moore made the scary prediction that Donald Trump was “the last president of the United States” in the trailer to his new documentary “Fahrenheit 11/9,” which premiere in New York Thursday evening at Alice Tully Hall.

On the red carpet I asked the filmmaker exactly what he meant by that.

“It’s that we may not have our United States the way that we knew it. If he’s successful in dismantling our democracy than the United States of old is gone and that’s what I’m worried about.”

On a different tack he added, “In my perfect world on November 6 there will be a tsunami of women, young people, people of color, going to the polls. And they’re going to try and right a very huge wrong. I believe that.”

“Fahrenheit 11/9,” which premiered in Toronto to rapturous reviews, is a bookend of sorts to his hugely successful 2004 Bush-bashing film “Fahrenheit 9/11,” which became the highest grossing documentary of all time. But for all the pillorying and parodying of the president, Bush still went on to serve a second term. So does Moore think his new film, “Fahrenheit 11/9,” can make people vote for liberal candidates?

“Make, no. But I hope it can inspire people to do the right thing, can give them some optimism, can sometimes show them a way out. I hope that’s what Im doing in this film tonight, helping show people a way out of the madness that we’re in.”

President Trump has taken up residence in celebrities skulls.

What could one expect though. Nature abhors a vacuum.

Not necessarily. I believe that the NYT got it through an intermediary.

...If I spelled that right.

Michael Moore stepped away from his trough of bacon fat for long enough to make a stupid statement.

If Trump lampooned the Swamp, my God - it takes so little to send it over the edge!

And that’s exactly what the anonymous NYT op-Ed author does.

People take that piece far too literally.

I think all that fat is finally squeezing the very last few brain cells out of Michael Moore’s ears.

These people accuse Trump of lacking humor. In reality, its they who are a surly and angry bunch short a few marbles.

Trump is the sober adult in our world, and the liberals are the drug addicts and idiots in our world.

But I hope it can inspire people to do the right thing

Michael, Michael, Michael...your "right thing" and mine are diametrically opposed. Yours is what will destroy America.

They know who did it and would never have published something by Trump.

Michael Moore might be a bloated slob, but he's not stupid. I'm sure he remembers this epic hilarity from the 2016 campaign:

Who was "John Miller?"

LMAO.

Just remember something here, folks: Donald Trump sat on this tape for 25 years before sending it to the Washington Post.

TWENTY. FIVE. YEARS.

I immediately speculated it could have been done by someone with Trump's input and approval.
