FULL TITLE: Michael Moore: Let’s Hope ‘The Squad’ Is the Face of the Democratic Party ‘Because That’s How We’re Going to Win’

Friday on MSNBC’s “The 11th Hour,” liberal documentary filmmaker Michael Moore said he was all for Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) and Ayanna Pressley (D-MA) being the face of the Democratic Party, a suggestion President Donald Trump has made in recent weeks.

The foursome known as “The Squad” representing the Democrats’ brand is how they win according to Moore.

“Let’s hope that Alexandria and Rashida and Ilhan and Congresswoman Pressley are the face because that’s how we’re going to win,” Moore said to host Brian Williams. “We’re going to win with people who believe that climate change is real. We’re going to win by getting behind people who want to raise the minimum wage, who are going to fight for all these things that the American public wants. That’s ‘The Squad.’ They’re the force out there.”

Moore offered a lengthy explanation about of history repeating itself in an effort to bolster that case.

“Well, first of all, Michigan has a long history, as does Wisconsin and Minnesota, the upper Midwest, of what you would call socialism or Democratic socialism or farm labor Democratic Party. We’ve never trusted the banks or the large corporations. General Motors was founded in Flint, Michigan, in 1908. A year of General Motors trying to turn this into a company town, people were so upset at it, in the next election. Flint elected a socialist mayor to remove the pro-G.M. mayor when the corporation first began. So that’s who we are. And the 13th district that Rashida Tlaib represents also has a strong history of — sadly right now it’s the third poorest congressional district in the country.”

the Democrat margin-of-cheating.

Which is probably how they regained the House....and likely how PIAAPS won the nonexistant "popular vote".

(vote early and often)

So he starts out talking about how socialism similar movement have historically been strong in the area, and then finishes with:

“And the 13th district that Rashida Tlaib represents also has a strong history of — sadly right now it’s the third poorest congressional district in the country.”

That was dumb, but bless his heart..

No, demographics are not on their side. The only thing that helps them is fraud. Hillary would have won if they could count on demographics, and nothing has changed since then and now.

I give rdcbn the benefit of the doubt. Because having the Four Horsewomen of the Apocalypse as the ‘face’ should result in a ‘win’ (for America). So yes, Moore, as quoted, is correct. We win.

Face of the Democrat party, that is. A Dem loss is a Win for America.

I’ll never understand why these people hate America so much when our way of life has been so kind to them and allowed them to be successful. A fat f**k like Michael Moore would’ve been a maximum loser in any other kind of society.

Many thanks to all on this thread for not posting pictures. Even memes of this guy can ruin my appetite for the rest of the day.

It’s just WWE Big Time Main Event Rasslin’ what Moore is saying is for the viewers of MSNBC. He is being paid to be a guest on the show.

If pushing The Squad to the forefront in 2020 is how Moore thinks the democRATS will win, he has it 180 degrees wrong.

With these four radical America-haters, Israel-haters as the face of the democRATS, they are assured of their defeat in 2020, not their victory.

Limited Socialism (welfare state) seems to be winning in the USA but that is ONLY because the dollar is the reserve currency of the world. If the US couldn’t have its enormous debt, then the disaster of the current socialist policies in the US would be readily apparent. Socialist policies in the US are ONLY possible because of our gigantic debt and someday the US is going to have to pay the gigantic bill that socialist policies have cost.

“I did not think it possible that Barack Obama could be elected POTUS in 2008 either.”

During that campaign, after attacking conservatives at one of his rallies for booing Obama’s middle name, McCain said in response to a question, something like: “Obama would make a fine president”.

He seemed much more interested in losing with class, than actually winning anything...but what the hell, I guess it was ‘his turn’ to run. The only requirement for beating McCain was maintaining a heartbeat through election day, and Obama was young and strong, so McCain’s only hope was shot.

Agreed. I was giving 'rcbcn' the benefit of the doubt that he was taking Moore's words literally.
Otherwise, rcbcn has wandered into the wrong neck of the woods.
I agree that making the odd 'Squad' the 'Face' of the Democrat Party is a good thing. It drops the veil from the Dems who like to take the Fabian approach of killing us with slow cancer (e.g., smiling President Obama claiming to be a 'moderate' who would 'heal', and stop the raising oceans). The 'Squad' make no pretenses about being nothing other than American hating Commies. They want us dead. I'd hope the choice would be easy and clear to America, come Election day.

When MM goes off script with truth it is pure gold for Trump. I hope MM keeps it up.
