Michael Moore just another Trump Victim ..

Having financial problems with his movie, Michael is trying to attract attention.
Stating that Trump is an "Evil Genius who will be a 2 Term President!"

Genius? My Ass! He's evil, but whats up with the Genius Crap..?
Because he is able to manipulate 30% of our ignorant, Racist, population?
One does not have to be a genius to accomplish that.. Just Fucking Evil!

y'know, Michael Moore warned us, almost before anyone, that Rump could win. And was excoriated for it, as if that was what he wanted. I think listening to him is a better plan, myself.

Moore knows how to gain attention and market himself on the back of it.

Maybe part of the reason he was wrong was that people listened.

Telling people to get out and vote against trump and trumpism makes more sense.

We don't need "Debbie Downer/Chicken Little" rhetoric, we should encourage those non-voters he was on Chris Hayes with the other night to get fucking involved and to vote against repugs.

Personally, I can't think of any better motivator than the thought that Rump could win again. Too many didn't take that idea seriously last time.

Negative oxymoronic messages are just that.

And trump didn't win before out of anything he did. He got a little assistance from Russia, Comey, repug cheating—the whole dirty business.

He was just the moron in the right place despite his stupidity.

And that's not going to repeat itself and I don't appreciate someone supposedly on our side repeating that it will.

Evil deeds perpetrated daily. But if is he truly the deranged sicko with zero self-awareness that all evidence suggests, is he truly evil, or merely a by-product of bad genes with even worse consequences? At any rate, I would question the "genius" part. IQ analysis has estimated him at around 120, well below any threshold of genius level and even lower than Dubya.

Wondering how can Moore be said to have financial problems with his movie when it's still several days away from hitting theaters? Is there evidence to suggest that he won't recoup the cost of producing it?

He rambled on so long that they cut his mic in the middle of his remembrance of high school dating troubles and brought on the next speaker.

That didn't stop him from later offering himself up as the official leader of The Resistance.

Ever since, whenever he appears on TV, I do a full-body eye roll.
