Michael Moore: ‘People Don’t Trust Democrats Anymore’
The Daily Caller ^ | October 2, 2016 | Kaitlan Collins, entertainment editor

Posted on 10/02/2016 8:56:05 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

Michael Moore said people don’t trust Democrats anymore.

During an interview with Chuck Todd on NBC’s “Meet the Press” Sunday, the filmmaker said the establishment has abandoned voters and argued that they may vote for Donald Trump out of frustration.

“I don’t think people do trust the Democrats anymore,” Moore said. “How else does a socialist win 22 states?”

“I mean, in my state of Michigan, Bernie Sanders won. If Hillary Clinton and the Democrats had a tough time with him, that should have been the red flag to everybody that there is a mood out there where people are upset at the Democrats and the Republicans.”(continued)

Michael Moore is making some limited sense? Wow! Who would have ever thought that?

Yes, Mike. People, both Republicans and Democrats, are totally fed up with the crap in Washington DC.

I have said for some years now that the nation was ripe for a populist leader, like Trump. I didn’t know it was going to be him, but both parties completely ignore voters. Constant wars abroad, absolute surrender on immigration, ridiculously complex tax laws, sweetheart deals for special interests, even commonsense voter ID laws...clear majorities of Americans agree on these issues, but our leaders in DC say one thing during elections and then do the exact opposite when elected.

Sadly, until such time that most senators and representatives are also tossed out on their kiesters, they will continue to work against our populist president—assuming Trump wins.

The cherry on this cake is that Obama appeared on comedy shows and became like a reality-show President....to such a degree that people are willing to accept Trump.

My line for years( probably a lot with same idea) was he missed his mark taking over for Arsenio Hall.

It’s kind of like when your cat or dog does something that makes you think they are really intelligent. Moore seems to be suffering major butthurt this year. Maybe he drank the water in Flint.

“What’s gotten into Michael Moore lately, he’s starting to sound as if he’s gotten some common sense.”

I get uneasy when I agree with statements made by this man.

It’s never happened before. EVER!

If you like your health insurance plan you can keep it. If you like your doctor you can keep your doctor. ObamaCare is working as it was planned.

Why would the public no longer believe Democrats? I mean I can't understand. (/sarcasm)

It’s good manners to use quotation marks when pasting in another poster’s comment.

Thanks.

While he may be right, it won’t stop at least 45% of the American people voting for her, a significant majority of which will be DEMs.

I never did trust Democrats, Mike, and I don’t trust Republicans anymore.

In fact, I do not trust government at all or the media.

In fact, the only person that I fully trust is my German Shepherd, because she can’t lie.

I completely agree with the first part of this comment, the second is just a cheap shot at Trump. Not my preferred candidate, but there is far more to his appeal than some "reality show" BS.

Dogs lie all the time. The next time you find something she chewed up or an empty bag from something she wasn’t supposed to eat, hold up the fragments and ask her who did it. :-)

I don’t even need to ask her.

All I have to do is look at the shredded paper towel on the floor and she tells me she did it by falling over sideways and groveling at my feet. She literally can no longer stand once she has been discovered. I don’t even have to speak.

Dogs aren’t capable of lying.

Hmm..maybe we should welcome him into the “vast right-wing conspiracy”? Not that he’d join, but we can always say he’s asking for it! (I’m joking, but still)

it took 2 years into the Obama administration and watching bush senior help bill Clinton con people into sending donation money to bill Clintons foundation for the Haitian relief for me to realize the Bush family was just as corrupt as the Clintons. I blindly defended Bush junior and feel the fool for it.

...”If you dump the Sunday political chat shows and just go sit in a barber shop in Iowa, or a Boston pub, or in a rural general store....people have a real opinion about what is going on. The news organizations with these fake public forums on Sunday and the pretender intellectuals....are doing a disservice to the nation.”...

You nailed it. “Pretender intellectuals,” is a great description of the majority of journalists and others seen on these shows. I think a lot of people are tuning out. The most fortunate people in the US are those common folks who live in small communities. They are more likely to know their neighbors and to be able to interact with them on a regular basis at the store, at church, at high school sports events, or at the pub. When people have enough to meet their basic needs, their satisfaction in life comes from their relationships. Those who spend their lives grasping and lusting for power over others, as we see played out in the media, will never find that sweet spot that so many common folks find. It is just a fact of nature.

I guess he decided that Hillary's fake southern/ebonics patois… authentic enough for him

I have come to the conclusion that Hillary is not a communist or a socialist.

Hillary is a power seeking con-woman, extorsionist, and fraud.

She is using Alinskyite tactics to extort bribes and slush fund money from domestic and foreign interest. All to further her person wealth and power.

Her Liberal Socialist agenda is nothing more than window dressing and a means to her ends. If she plunges the world in to chaos along the way; she could not care less.

She does not care about this country, about the poor or about issues. She cares about power and money.

She learned from Alinsky that Leftism is the surest path to both.
