Controversial documentary filmmaker Michael Moore on Wednesday said Democratic Sens. Kamala Harris and Cory Booker would lose against President Trump in the 2020 election, suggesting the party should nominate a “beloved American” like Michelle Obama instead.
Moore made the comments on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” following the results of the 2018 midterm elections, where Democrats regained control of the House of Representatives.
“I think [Trump] is a tumor on our democracy,” Moore said. “But the tumor shrank last night. He has ripped apart and has taken us to the precipice of whether or not we are going to have the country we thought we used to have or that we were going to have.”
“I come from one of those three states — Michigan — that put him over the top in the electoral college vote,” Moore continued. “Last night, those three states — Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin … all went blue.”
Moore, who predicted Trump’s victory in 2016, went on to ask who, in two years' time, could possibly challenge the president, whom he described as a “true danger” and an “evil genius.”
After show co-host Mika Brzezinski floated the name of Harris, Moore shot back that neither the California Democrat nor Booker of New Jersey could win against Trump.
“No," he said about Harris. "Love her. No, not going to happen. Cory — love him. No. We cannot run a politician against [Trump]. We will lose.”(continued)

This is already the best election ever, and I thought the sequel would be boring.
Awesome choice mikey, awesome choice.
He’s kinda right. She’s the one that concerns me the most. And she’s a twofer. black and she has a vagina, though the second point is debatable.
Idiots gotta do what idiots do.
Great, nominate Michael the transgender freak.
If he thinks Michelle Obama is beloved by anyone other than brain dead Leftists he is way past delusional.
They all went BLUE cause TRUMP wasn't on the ticket, these Democrats have no connection or loyalty to a generic GOPer!
Only TRUMP can get their vote!
It doesn’t matter who the Democrats nominate. They are going to get at least 45 to 47 percent of the vote regardless.
Michelle only wants power and shopping privileges.
Frankly she doesn’t want to work to get it.
Beto-Booker 2020 is a real possibility.
Michael Moore is an idiot.
Keep thinking that way, Fat Boy!
Popcorn futures....think about it.
Michelle was 44 when she finally became “proud of her country”. I seriously doubt that she feels the same pride now.
True, but if the question is, “what kind nominee could win”, the answer might have little to do with qualifications.
Run, Mooch, RRRUUUNNN!!!
