It took Michael Moore to correct anti-gun protester David Hogg’s proposal for Canadians to meddle in American elections.
After screening Moore’s anti-Trump “Fahrenheit 11/9” at the Toronto Film Festival, Hogg and other Parkland, Florida high school students joined the millionaire filmmaker on stage during a Q&A.
“I have a question for you guys,” Hogg said after grabbing the mic from Moore.
“Who’s ready to save America?”
The Canadian audience cheered.
“Who’s ready to make America the country we say it is on paper, and make it the actual country that it wants to be?” he asked.
Hogg was the critical of the idea of not allowing convicts to vote in elections.
As Hogg ranted about what he saw as an injustice, someone yelled, “Shame!”
“Turn that shame into your vote,” he responded, adding, “if you’re not Canadian.”
“Um,” he continued, turning to Moore, “I think Canadians can donate to political campaigns in the United States.”
Moore shook his head in disagreement.

They are liberals, IIRC. Mother had a secret page on Facebook for politics, is a teacher IIRC.
Moore grabbed the mic thinking it was a free hot dog?
To be honest, the only places I ever hear about this twerp are on FR and Breitbart. I couldn’t care less what some arrogant child has to say - he has a lot of learning to do.
Sounds like the start of a joke. A Hogg and a pig go into a film festival...
“the millionaire filmmaker on stage”
Yes, being a vocal slob/knob/tool pays fairly well in America.
Pretending like you are fighting for the “little people” while making big bucks..its the democratic way.
You can even be a complete idiot..like Hogg boy and cash in on the moronic cult of neo-communism.
Civil Wars are rarely internal affairs. Hogg just proved that.
Unfortunately, thanks to Soros’ money , et al.....this disrespectful potty mouth has had his 15 minutes extended
“You can tell that this person’s 15 minutes is really over and done, eh? I wonder who allowed him into my backyard?”
Sadly, the idiots in Toronto.
Probably my brother-in-law - he works for TIFF.
“”Just think we are going to have to endure the obnoxious little punk the rest of our lives.” No, just the rest of his short life.”
More than likely is will be a Deep Stater who does the dirty business after this prima donna decides he doesn’t want to tow the party line anymore.
The left has no problem with interference in elections as long as the interference is on their side.
...and everyone forgets the phase right before a Civil War kicks off: Settling of scores.
Hogg better watch out or he'll be fed to the hogs.
In five years, David Hogg will be as well remembered as Cindy Sheehan is now.
It's a low bar for Moore to step over.
A hog and a Hogg.
I think that he has a future in politics. Will be "the youngest/first gay/first something" elected to a prominent office in FL....
....Then will flame out by 30. I'm thinking bribery/embezzlement, but could be one of the things that you suggest. Or, combinations are possible, I suppose.
Media loves him, and he's savvy enough to create an opportunity for himself, just not smart enough to capitalize on it. Fine by me.
Hogg is drunk on the power of the camera, lights & microphone.
““Who’s ready to save America?”
The Canadian audience cheered.”
Stay out of this, you Canadians.
You dont have British troops to protect you anymore.
That’s the path they are mapping for him, but I think he’s turned out to be too much of an impulsive hot head to successfully complete that mission. He’s not as bright as they thought he was either, which really makes him an unlikely long term candidate for their plans. He’ll go out with a bang, doing something evil stupid and public.
Well, I surely can't argue with you, there. :-)
If my theory turns out to be wrong, a bright flameout would be nice. Perhaps at the 2020 Dem National Convention? Just in time to push a few more (R) candidates over the finish line?
It's good that Dems put so much at stake in such low-quality figureheads. It's not all that different from Republicans in the early/mid 2000's. Fun to see them make many of the same mistakes, with the same result.
Canadians can’t legally donate to US campaigns, but they can run for President. One tried in 2016.
