Michael Moore: ‘Put Our Bodies on the Line’ to Stop Trump

[polychronopolous]

In 2004, Michael Moore released his documentary Fahrenheit 9/11 about the run-up to the Iraq War. This September, he will premiere his latest film: Fahrenheit 11/9.

As the libe :)ral filmmaker told Stephen Colbert on The Late Show Thursday night, that date represents the night Donald Trump was elected president. “This is about how the hell we got in this situation and how we’re going to get out of it,” he said.

After playing a clip from the film in which he tries to infiltrate Mar-a-Lago, Colbert asked him if he was “civil” to the people there. “I was as civil as any Eagle Scout Catholic altar boy could be when confronted with the devil,” Moore answered.


Speaking to the great civility debate happening in America right now, Moore continued, saying that Democrats have traditionally been “so wimpy and weak” but now “a few people want to stand up and say, I’ve had enough, that’s it.”


“We don’t have to be violent, we have to remain non-violent, but if the worst that happens to anybody in the Trump administration is that they don’t get to have a chicken dinner in Virginia, I mean, I don’t know,” he said. If it were just basic political differences, Moore said he would not be in favor of throwing Sarah Huckabee Sanders out of a restaurant.


“But that’s not what’s going on now,” he said. “We’re not talking about political differences. We’re talking about thousands of children being kidnapped and put in jails.”

Given how divided the nation seems to be at this moment, Colbert wondered what kind of “endgame” Moore had in mind. “Because you don’t want to end this in violence or any sort of really revolutionary confrontation, you want a political change at the end of this,” he assumed. “Do you have any hope for that?”

Moore, who said he cries every single day when he watches the news, says he has to hold on to some shred of hope. But at the same time he wonders, “When are people going to get off the couch and rise up?”

“Sadly, Trump is not going to leave,” he said. “He plans to be reelected, he loves the term ‘president for life.’ The only way that we’re going to stop this is eventually we’re all going to have to put our bodies on the line. You’re going to have to be willing to do this.” Moore then turned to the audience and asked them what they would do if “they snatched your child from you.” Because “that’s how we all have to start responding.”

Lol.   Typical fat lazy liberal

[IroNat]

Advice to Moore:

Eat less.

[Purge_WTF]

 If he puts his body on the line, then yeah, anything is possible.

 Friggin' hippie.

[Soul Crusher]

Fat - yes
Liberal - no shit
Lazy - not close

I don't agree with some of his views, BUT he works hard to produce provocative films.

If he was working hard he would not be that much a slob. 

[Coach is Back!]

Fat - yes
Liberal - no shit
Lazy - not close

I don't agree with some of his views, BUT he works hard to produce provocative  propaganda films.

Michael Moore: I Cry Every Day When I Read the News

Colbert: We have a 'gerrymandered presidency' and 'gerrymandered Supreme Court'

Activist Michael Moore said he cries every day when he reads the news during an emotional interview on Thursday with late-night host Stephen Colbert.

Appearing to promote his new movie Fahrenheit 11/9, the liberal filmmaker was alternately despairing and fired up over the overall tenor of the Donald Trump administration and its border policies in particular.

"Where does this go?" Colbert asked. "We've got a gerrymandered Congress, because of the Electoral College, essentially a gerrymandered presidency, and therefore, you end up with a gerrymandered Supreme Court. What is the end game here, because you don't want to end this in anything violent, or some sort of really revolutionary confrontation. You want a political change at the end of this. Do you have any hope for that?"

Moore said he wouldn't appear on Colbert's show if he didn't have hope, but he then pivoted to asking Colbert a "personal question."

"When you read the paper every day, or you watch the news, do you ever cry? Do you ever tear up? Does this ever happen to you these days?" Moore asked.

"Sure. Of course," Colbert said.

"It happens to me now every day," Moore said.

Real men don't cry.

It's genetically impossible.

Ok, so would you go "full bottom" or just suck the chrome off his trailer hitch?

Real men only have sex with real women.

Think of a really ugly woman and that's the feeling of unpleasantness most women must feel when they see Michael Moore.

It must be rough being him.  Lots of money but so ugly.

Damn.  No wonder he cries every day.

Note: Sarandon is one hot woman.

That picture of Bronson is badass.

 One of my favorite actors.
