Documentarian Michael Moore made an unannounced visit to Trump Tower Saturday with a film crew in tow — hoping for a sit down with President-elect Donald Trump.

Moore, a vocal critic of the real estate mogul, called Trump “illegitimate” as he walked around the lobby of the skyscraper with reporters, according to a pool report.

The “Fahrenheit 9/11” director said Trump “does not have the vote of the people” because claimed victory in the electoral college but did not win the popular vote.

The 62-year-old, who had predicted Trump’s victory, entered the gaudy lobby with a camera crew in tow and asked to see Trump.

“I just thought I’d see if I could get into Trump Tower and ride the famous escalator,” Moore said.

And he did...

A call to the Trump organization asking for a meeting would be the civil, polite way to do it. Of course, Moore with his millions has not changed his true colors.

Once you discount the fraudulant votes and the illegal alien votes, you'll find that Trump also won the popular vote.

Michael Moore should move to Mexico, and take all those other losers with him - I would not ever be so presumptuous to tell president-elect Trump what to do(I trust his instincts) - but I believe it as an no-win situation for our President...

FU Moore & the donkey you rode in on!

The real news is at the end: Moments later, Nigel Farage, the head of the Brexit movement that saw Britain leave the European Union, was seen in the building.

Now that is awesome! I so want to see the US help Britain with Brexit, because you know their liberal intelligentsia are trying to overturn that vote too.

Well, Moore called Trump’s victory. Maybe he simply wants to join the transition team.
I’ll tell you who should be part of the administration for real: Peter Schweizer and Dinesh D’Souza!

Can waddling in while someone else held the door open for him really be considered "storming" the building?

Trump doesn’t have body guards any more, he is soon to be the president so he has secret service protection. His protection is probably already as formidable as Obama’s, and playing around like this might leave that fat loser cooling his heels in a cell. Especially considering all the assassination threats out there.

Last December, Moore stood in front of Trump’s namesake high rise holding a sign declaring, “We are all Muslim,” in the wake of Trump’s controversial proposal to temporarily ban Muslim immigrants from entering the country.

That statement indicates to me Moore doesn't understand fundamental Islam.-Tom

Moore is already demanding that we get rid of the electoral vote. Never mind that it would take a constitutional amendment.

“I just thought I’d see if I could get into Trump Tower and ride the famous escalator,” Moore said.

No, Michael, there's a weight limit on the escalator.

He could sure house a lot of Muslim refugees there.

The lefties are mad at him for saying Trump would win, so he’s trying to get back into their good graces.

Exactly. The nationwide popular vote is irrelevant under the rules of the game. As someone said a couple days ago, it’s like pointing out that the losing teams of the World Series scored more total runs than the winner team over the course of the series... might be interesting from a trivia standpoint but otherwise irrelevant since the rules require winning 4 games.
