Michael Moore sounds like a TV gunshot victim doing his death gurgle

[Stinky The Clown]

His Bombast-O-Meter is stuck on Empty.

Can we all agree this guy is totally irrelevant?

[2naSalit]

1. Well I had to turn him off so I agree.

He can't accept it I guess.

[getagrip_already]

9. I muted him as well - he's calling for bernie to keep hurting joe....

That's not how he put it, but that would be the net effect. There is no purpose to continuing negative ads and attacks. It helps nobody but trump.

Go away and take your bad hair coloring with you.

[2naSalit]

18. Not surprised.

I'm glad they wouldn't let him wear his hat. I like some of his movies and I;m glad he put some of his money into Flint and other causes but that's about the extent of my admiration.

[totodeinhere]

34. If Bernie has no chance then yes he should pull the ads.

He still has a lot of money but he could use that to pay for ads attacking Trump. There would be nothing illegal about that as long as Bernie does not formally end his campaign.

[TexasTowelie]

46. He could also use some of that money to help Democrats win other races

at a state and federal level. If he doesn't to make direct contributions to candidates, then he can help indirectly with voter registration drives It would at least enhance the possibility that some of his proposals are adopted.

[totodeinhere]

48. I think he probably will. n/t

[Squinch]

55. Did he last time?

[totodeinhere]

67. As I have said before I do not see the need to keep replaying

the 2016 election.

[Squinch]

69. A person's previous behavior gives clues to future behavior.

Today's speech proved this.

[totodeinhere]

70. He did not say he will not support the nominee.

And I as a Sanders supporter I have said on numerous occasions that I will support the nominee. But how Bernie moves forward is his decision to make. He cares about his signature issues and he feels that by remaining in the race he will have a platform. As long as he is not mathematically eliminated from the race he has every right to remain in the race and he has every right to debate Joe Biden on Saturday.

[Squinch]

72. Yes. Ethics aside, enormous stakes to our Democracy aside, he legally does have the right.

[totodeinhere]

73. He probably thinks that staying in the race so he can have a platform to push his issues

is the ethical thing to do.

[Squinch]

74. And yet he lost. His platform lost to Joe's platform. So why does he think

he has the right to override all the people who voted against him?

[totodeinhere]

75. He isn't overriding people who voted against him any more than Joe Biden

overrode the voters in in early primaries and caucuses who voted against him. Just because some people voted against you doesn't mean that you should not be able to move on to future primaries and try to make your case to people who haven't voted yet.

[Squinch]

77. As Rome burns we're discussing participation trophies. SMH.

[drray23]

2. Yes, interestingly he is not looking disheveled .

Usually he shows up with a trucker hat and messy hair.

[nolabear]

5. I noticed that. It's as though he was playing a character.

And now he’s facing reality.

[2naSalit]

21. One of the producers there

won't let him wear his hat and jacket. Even from a remote locaction.

[lapfog_1]

49. maybe he is just going back to being the guy

with a net worth of $50 Million.

and not so much the "regular joe at the truck stop" or whatever he was trying to convey.

[Dem2]

3. Pretty unprepared for this

He is way off his game tonight

On edit - what a jerk stirring up the differences in the party and whining about how only one side made ridiculous claims about not voting for the other candidate. Has he never been to reddit? Awful interview.

[Ellen Forradalom]

4. I never forgave him for Nader

n/t

[chillfactor]

6. Loving MSNBC coverage...

....but muted audio when he came on!

[world wide wally]

7. I think the word is "pase" (not sure of the spelling)

[Lithos]

12. passe?

n/t

[drray23]

13. Passe with an accent on the e which I don't know how to do on DU.n th.

[Lithos]

8. He has a nice place in history

He made it acceptable to be angry and took the heat for it. Cenk was another as well.

But the shark has definitely jumped.

[nolabear]

10. He's certainly eulogizing.

[2naSalit]

23. That's the word I was trying to remember!

Thanks.

[Cha]

11. Now.. if only the msm would agree

[RhodeIslandOne]

14. Michigan went big for Biden

He has nothing left.

[Green Line]

15. Looked like Brian Williams wanted him gone

[LenaBaby61]

20. Looked like Brian Williams wanted him gone.

Yes, the sound seems to have left MSNBC just as Moore was giving his little speech.

I really enjoyed his early work, because it shined a light on issues that needed a light shined on them. But the past several years he's turned completely into another person, a person that I don't really like or want to listen to any longer.

[marlakay]

37. I think he changed after his divorce

They use to work together.

Also after all his movies warning people and no one listening it would be hard not to get discouraged.

[Goodheart]

16. He just accused Biden and Hillary Clinton of withholding support from Sanders if he's the candidate

What the fuck.

[honest.abe]

19. Wtf is he talking about??

The man is deranged.

[Goodheart]

22. Moore said they both said they might not support Sanders....

and that the message they sent at the time was that trump was a better choice. But then they both later walked that back. And that Sanders was the one candidate who wasn't causing a rift within the Democratic Party, as if Sanders is a member.

[honest.abe]

24. Well they never said any such thing.

That’s a blatant lie on his part.

[emmaverybo]

28. Well, heard him. He lied. Blamed Biden supporters.

[Cha]

36. And, that's why the msm has him on.. All the time.

[showblue22]

41. Bernie and his surrogates said a lot of shit

So who cares.

[NBachers]

17. Get this wake over, dude - we've got work to do.

[delisen]

25. Hillary & Nancy ended your misogyny rampage and

you never saw it coming.

[Maraya1969]

26. If someone finds the video please post it. eom

[CanonRay]

27. He looked totally deflated

[Todd79]

63. Literally and figuratively

[whathehell]

29. No, we can't."all agree to that"

If his "bombasto-meter"had been Full, you would have criticized that -- He did fine.

[emmaverybo]

30. To add insult to injury, Sam Seder repeated the "hiding Biden away" rumor and Hayes

agreed, saying Biden still had to justify the votes he is getting, both implying he is a shaky candidate. This crap followed MM.

[Cha]

39. Poor losers.. and I've read the pundit

heads were whining about it, too. like Tapper on cnn.

Did they have no clue that BS was going to lose again?

".. justify the votes.."? who the hell who they think they are? This is between Biden and his Voters.. Not the m$m who slammed Biden at every turn.

smh.. grr

[mikelgb]

31. that is quite the epithet for the filmmaker of "Bowling for Columbine" n/t

[HarlanPepper]

47. There there

[LovingA2andMI]

32. Been Irrelevant!!!

Who would take 15 sections and listen to his podcast? Not here.

[zak247]

33. Michael Moore is dead wrong

Michael Moore is dead wrong.

Number one, Biden will have enthusiastic support against Trump. Biden is a decent Liberal who will put Liberals on the SCOTUS AND PROTECT Obamacare, Medicare, and social programs, and bring back the attention to a Global warming agenda.

Number two, one doesn't need a super charismatic candidate like an Obama or a Kennedy when one is running against a depraved candidate like Trump.
Lyndon Johnson proved that in 1964 when he defeated Goldwater in a landslide.

The country is itching to throw him out

[Lady_Chat]

35. +100

[Cha]

40. Yeah, We Are.. Well said, zak!

[totodeinhere]

38. I respected him when he was going after George W. Bush with his films.

I think he had some good material back then. But lately has has become more eccentric.

[SunSeeker]

44. He's been off since his 2014 divorce. I think it messed him up psychologically.

I too respected his earlier work, like Roger & Me, and Sicko.

[SunSeeker]

42. Moore couldn't even deliver his home town, Flint, to Bernie.

[Cha]

50. That's gotta sting.. he tried so hard to smear Pres

Obama with the Flint water crisis.

[Hyper_Eye]

45. Michael Moore will support Biden.

Tonight it became clear that the Sanders campaign is over. His supporters have every right to be disappointed just as every person here did when it became evident that their first choice was not going to be moving forward. I mean give them a little time. Michigan just happened. Michael Moore will be on MSNBC in the week before the election imploring that everyone get out and vote for Biden. He's a good guy fighting for the right people. Here he is doing the same for Hillary which includes calling for Bernie supporters to rally behind her:

[DanieRains]

51. America Is Suffering From Stockholm Syndrome - Not Right Time For Revolution

Even though most people polled want the whole crap system changed.

We need to escape our captors before we can start revolution.

Makes sense to me.

[Hortensis]

56. Not just Stockholm, apparently separation anxiety from Trump too!

AND we're determined captives of a crap system too. You've dumped quite a load on us there, but here's a Moore line from last night for you to add to your collection if you wish:

"Getting rid of Trump and the system at the same time was probably too much to ask."

Sanders always insists (like a talking doll with its string pulled) that Democrats are really just like Republicans. Democrats have never understood how that outrageously stupid attempt to slander would resonate with anyone, much less enough to repeat on every occasion, yet here it is, along with an echo of your own Stockholm notions, regurgitated in Moore's spiteful disappointment.

Enjoy if you will.

[grantcart]

52. I am not as anti MM as others but he was very strange, follow my points please

1) Michael Moore said "If people knew Sanders personally on a one to one basis like I know him they would have a very different understanding of him"

2) Being able to communicate to a mass audience and sharing yourself in an authentic way is a basic skill that all candidates need to develop.

3) MM is a professional documentary director. He knows that if he doesn't communicate his message in his medium it is his fault as a professional.

With Sanders (I) Vermont however he gives Sanders a pass and really accuses the audience of not being mature enough to grasp the profound Senator of Vermont.

[Cha]

53. Thanks for your analysis.. all I'm going to say is I do Not like

him.. and Thank Goodness Joe Biden has Won all these states so we get this guy on tv whining and lying about it. He's a RF.

[Cha]

54. In the past 2 minutes @MMFlint has:

[oasis]

57. What a big baby. He was on the brink of blubbering last night.nt

[Cha]

58. Good.. karma. And, the m$m just

let him prattle on, no doubt

[Gothmog]

59. I turn the TV off when he is on

[Sunlei]

60. how he sounds & looks is not his strong point but he's sure on the USA political pulse

On the money with 2016 Trumpland, his broadway live performances were amazing, one man stand-up shows.

I don't agree he's irrelevant at all. What I don't like about MM is he only left trumpland entire up free for 3 days, Moore you should have left it up free for a month! Trumpland was released 4 weeks before the election.



Michael Moore in TrumpLand OFFICIAL TRAILER

[BeyondGeography]

61. He also made a point that this Warren supporter (me) came to terms with last week

Link to tweet

[HarlanPepper]

65. Bahahaha!

The pulse? My ass. He’s been talking for weeks about a Bernie surge. Talked about how something special was happening in Michigan. How youth voters are showing up for Bernie (even though data says otherwise).

He has no insight other than to whine. Pulse?

[Sunlei]

78. political pulse is , the man is invited to dinners with the Clintons

I'm always surprised by the friendship with the Clintons.

yes it is a shame youth vote is always so low. Was only 18% youth vote for the entire Clinton/Trump election (most voted in the D party)

This time Michigan youth voter turnout was about 12? percent. I guess most of those youth votes were early voters. Because the field primary was 17? contenders for president, I didn't want to early vote here in Texas and had to wait 3 hours in line.

Once I voted I was surprised to see the ballot still had 12 names on it. Those that had dropped out in the past 1-2 days I can understand why they're still on a ballot but people who dropped out long ago were on the ballot.

When you look at the numbers though Sanders clearly did not win- but he got a lot of votes. was the state about 400k to 500kBiden win? Those 400k weren't 'youth' either. I'm positive Joe Biden won't discount or disparage the very progressive Ds. I'm also positive if Sanders loses MM will vote for Joe Biden and so will I. So let us please be kind to each other- we're on the same side.

62. For this thread

[Amaryllis]

64. MOre than irrelevant. Damaging.

[NCProgressive]

66. Michael Moore looks like a corpse

[nolabear]

71. This does not help your candidate.

[samnsara]

76. he sounded kooky
