The radically liberal documentary filmmaker Michael Moore just spoke out in a new interview to beg Democrats not to underestimate the fact that the white male supporters of President Donald Trump are filled with “rage.”
“Never take Trump for granted,” Moore said during an interview with MSNBC.
“If anybody is sitting at home thinking ‘Oh, man, we’ve got this one in the bag. Whoa, did you hear him today? He said he’s done more for black people than Abraham Lincoln. Whoa! We’re going to win,’ No. No. I’m telling you. I’m warning you, and I’m begging you, please, do not sell this man short. He has pulled off so many things, so many times.”
“It’s white men, a lot of white men, two-thirds of white men voted for Trump, feel that their grip on power is quickly fading. It’s being taken from them. They’ve been watching what’s going on the last couple of weeks. They are just as angry at that cop in Minneapolis because he’s really messed it up for the white male holding onto that power. I think white men and their fear of this —notice how Trump’s base really never changes. That percentage that’s going to vote for him. It’s 40, 41. On a good day, it’s 43 or 44. It always stays within the margin of error. That’s because it doesn’t matter what Trump does. They are going to show up. They’re counting on their rage, and their emotion is so much stronger. They have the courage of their convictions. They believe, and they’re counting on us not showing up in that same way.”
Moore has been attacking Trump and his supporters like it’s his job ever since the president took office.
Lately, he’s been warning Democrats not to underestimate Trump, saying last month that the president “knows exactly what he’s doing.”
“None of us should take him for granted,” Moore said of Trump.
“Anybody who right now says, ‘Oh no,’ you’re really part of the problem because you’re not taking this seriously. He knows exactly what he’s doing. He was just in Michigan this week. It’s the third time he’s been in Michigan in three weeks. He believes he’s going to somehow pull this off.”
