Michael Moore on MSNBC says AOC could beat Trump.

[madaboutharry]

What is wrong with him? First of all many democrats are not thrilled by her. Second, she is too young . She is 29. You need to be 35 to serve as president.

Come on Mike.

[NurseJackie]

1. I can't stand that Nader supporter, Moore.

[Hoyt]

2. That's a race I'd like to see. She'd kick his ignorant ass.

[KPN]

31. No doubt about it.

[elleng]

3. It was a discussion of changing age for POTUS to 30,

the point was she has IT, and he's right.

[sheshe2]

8. IT?

[elleng]

10. What it takes to beat trump.

[sheshe2]

12. Okay.

She has proven she can tweet,

[Me.]

16. She Can Tweet

but could/can she withstand the mountain of oppo that will be come down upon her head should she ever decide she's presidential material?

[Hassin Bin Sober]

23. She's also very likable. Which is half the battle.

[still_one]

24. Hang on........................................................

[still_one]

22. Most of her endorsements in the 2018 primaries against Democratic incumbents sure didn't pan out

just saying

[Cha]

4. Of course he did.

[Me.]

11. He Was Right About Individual 1 Being Put In The WH

So now he thinks he is a prophet. He has big problems with his film festival and the way he treats his employees and doesn't pay his bills. Sound familiar?

Aloha Cha....

[Cha]

13. Wrong about "Romney winning" & Wrong about a lot of things.

“But I think we have to embrace Trump,” Moore said in the interview. “People reading this will say, ‘What do you mean? Embrace Trump?’ But we have to embrace him. We have to listen to him. He’s telling lies, and he’s telling the truth at the same time"

But, M.Moore also says trump is like "hitler".. so why should we "embrace" someone like hitler? Or the fucking moron?

"In new film, Michael Moore compares Trump to Hitler. And he's not so crazy about Obama, either."

"I've come to the conclusion that the old guard of the Democratic Party is a greater roadblock to social progress than Trump"

<Moore continued: “When the history is written of this era, this is how you’ll be remembered. He was the first black president. OK, not a bad accomplishment. But that’s it. That’s it, Mr. Obama. A hundred years from now, (it’ll be noted that) he was the first black American that got elected president. And that’s it — eight years of your life and that’s what people will remember.”>

Aloha, Me

15. First Of All I Dispise His Attitude Towards PBO

Do you think he's unaware of his racist overtones or as oblivious about that as he is of so much else? Embrace Individual 1 indeed! And now his big idea is that AOC should be our next president. He's one of those people who makes me want to growl.

[Cha]

18. Moore's quote about Pres Obama only being

remembered because he was the first Black President is Blatantly Racist and Absurdly Idiotic.

<Moore continued: “When the history is written of this era, this is how you’ll be remembered. He was the first black president. OK, not a bad accomplishment. But that’s it. That’s it, Mr. Obama.

He makes my skin crawl.

20. A picture says a thousand words. Thanks Cha

[fescuerescue]

5. She won't be 29 forever

In 6 years she'll be 35.

She could be a strong running for 2024 or 2028.

Of course if she's running against Trump then, we got a whole mess of other problems.

[PoliticAverse]

6. He made a statement like that because he knows that it will cause people to give him free publicity

like you just did.

[triron]

7. Just not into Moore.

[Me.]

9. He Thinks The Age Should Be Lowered

so she can run for president. After all, says he, she is the leader.

I'm still waiting for his apology to Nancy Pelosi.

[WeekiWater]

14. Publicity hound.

Always looking for a way to hitch his wagon to others who are connected to his monied base.

I don’t fault him for it.

[Blue_true]

17. I think that Michael Moore is a poorly dressing slobby person.

But in this case, he has a point. AOC and Trump before her and the Brexit campaigners and all of the despotic populists that are being elected worldwide have struck a vein of discontent among populace in many countries. AOC would not have gotten elected if people that voted in the primary in her district did not feel that they are being shortchanged by the system as it is. Trump would not have won Michigan and Wisconsin and come close to winning Minnesota if people that voted for him who are not racist did not feel that they are being shortchanged by the system as it is. It is easy enough to say that only racists or hateful people voted for Trump, but that ignores that some of those people voted for President Obama when he ran on a platform of Hope as changing the system as it was. Brexit was voted in because enough Britains bought into the horseshit that they were being shortchanged.

Until competent leaders figure out where the discontent is coming from (it is clearly economic uncertainty, IMO), then populists will continue to give rosy solutions to tough problems and win races that they should not win.

I watched my mom babysit infants when I was young, a baby would just start crying and would force her to go through a list of things to figure out why the baby was crying. To ward of dangerous populism (in some, but not all cases - for example, I think AOC is right), politician will need to check for a wet or shitty diaper, or check the formula bottle, or figure out whether the baby just need to be fed, or it is tired and need to be rocked to sleep - absent that effort and fixes, populists will continue to gain ground with the simple argument that something is wrong.

19. What is wrong with him? He is still trying to show he still has revelence, since people have

stopped going to his movies.

Of course what you pointed out that she isn't 35, and can't serve as president only puts emphasis on the point I am making that he so craves attention

[DURHAM D]

21. Why doesn't he just team up with Bannon and

they can take their dog and pony show on the road and stay off of tv.

[shanny]

25. c'mon mad

it's a hypothetical: he said she could beat rump and he's right. (and why would any of us have a problem with that?)

btw, at the rate that asshole is digging his political grave, a half-sentient dog catcher with a D after his name could beat him. it would be an improvement, bigly.

[SHRED]

29. Yup

[regnaD kciN]

26. Too bad she won't get the chance...

The fact is, by the time AOC can run for president, Trump will be long-gone, one way or another.

[quickesst]

27. Michael Moore is a self-serving moron

And a blowhard. 😤💨💨

[betsuni]

30. Uh oh. I guess Bernie Sanders isn't going to be his Valentine this year.

I see Moore's first comment is blaming Democrats for everything: "We had Democrats in charge for eight years... ." Republicans don't exist! They did not block everything President Obama did! People voted for Trump because of economic anxiety and not racism! Democrats are the ones who do not care!

[BluegrassDem]

32. Moore is terrible at political prognosticating. He needs to stick with movies

How many times has he said Dems were gonna get "crushed" the past 15 years or so? I'm so sick of his shtick. I don't know if he's ever picked a Dem to win a single election.

[beachbum bob]

33. Moore is smoking crack again.

[treestar]

34. Latest shiny object

The overkill on her is hilarious. She's so overpraised, it could go to her head.

[Gothmog]

35. I stopped paying attention to Moore a long time ago

[crazycatlady]

36. she is ineligible to run against Trump

Unless he loses in 2020 and comes back and runs in 2024.
