On MSNBC, Michael Moore Rants Millions of 'Racist' Trump Fans Must Be 'Shunned'

During MSNBC’s The Last Word With Lawrence O'Donnell on Wednesday, guest host Ali Velshi engaged in a lengthy interview with far-left documentary filmmaker Michael Moore. Velshi channeled his inner Hillary Clinton, referring to a large share of the American public as “angry, intolerant (and) hard to reconcile.” These comments present an eerie similarity to Hillary Clinton’s infamous dismissal of half of Trump supporters as “irredeemable” members of a “basket of deplorables.” Moore’s suggestion that the “quarter of the country” brought up by Velshi should be “shunned” also has a striking similarity to Clinton’s declaration that “you cannot be civil” with Republicans.

Velshi asked Moore “how much intolerance do we tolerate in order to build bridges of empathy, to talk to people who are legitimately angry?” Moore responded: “You can’t build a bridge to a racist or a misogynist...they have to be shunned and treated like we treated smokers twenty years ago.” Moore did extend an olive branch to “Republicans who do care about this country, who are not bigots, they’re just rightfully angry,” urging them to “give these Democrats who just got elected a shot.”

Hmmm. I guess we'll bridge little tolerance of the intolerable before we shun them into being more tolerant. Or something. But, that tears it. I'm done with moore from now on. LOL!

Mike, I’m not sure what the point of you’re shunning me is when I’m already shunning you and have been for a long time.

We are not friends, and we never will be.

Michael Moore needs to get with the program. Hasn’t he heard Hollywood’s suggestion that NRA members be executed?

This is a carbon copy of what The Atlantic said about Trump supporting Jews: "shun them, exile them, kick them out of your synagogues," etc.


It never ceases to amaze me how transparently Hitlerian are the tactics of the American left, and how so many murderously hateful, racist, elitist, fascist fools never see the blatant truths inherent in their own outrageous intolerance.

Moore should seriously be more concerned about his own health before talking about anyone else’s problems.

Soon Moore will want all of us to wear little yellow “T” patches on our clothing.

Nonsense. What he really wants is to eliminate Whitey after taking all his money.

When will This lard tub do what he said the would do if the President won & move from the USA. We will cheer him on & find a gofundme for his moving expenses and throw in an extra large refrigerator.

I love it if countless migrants got to live in that house. That would be doing a “fair share” for us little people.

That’s Michael Moore’s home on Torch Lake, Michigan.

But:

He has EIGHT homes.

The right is already shunning their movies and TV shows. Let's see who has the larger reach. We know who has the loudest reach, but that's a sign of their desperation, not their effectiveness.

Well, you can shun all you want, but hopefully they just don’t bother actually buying tickets or home video.

I already shun the fat bastard, so it’s okay if he doesn’t come near me.
