Michael Moore Took His Entire Broadway Show Audience to Protest Trump

&t=11s

Michael Moore talks to Seth about his one-man Broadway show, The Terms of My Surrender, and the new step he added to his 12-step program for dealing with Trump's presidency - sober up on those calls for impeachment.

And he uses his notoriety to say and do things we'd all like to, given the chance, the imagination - and the guts!

3. I admire him, to stand up on stage & be a one man show. I thought Trumpland was brilliant.

and before another person says he hurt Hillarys chances in election-, Hillary herself said "She is Moores number one fan" and has had him to dinner a couple of times.

4. It's his fearlessness that continues to impress me

He never gives up, just keeps pushing on - and has the resources to try things we'd love to do, if only we thought of them, LOL. As for Hillary Clinton, of course she loves him. They have a whole lot in common - and she's pretty fearless too.

We can flip Congress and the Senate, then it won't matter who is president.

Meanwhile I hope his Broadway show travels to major cities, I can't travel to NY this year!

7. you're right, "the enthusiasm difference" and use of social media (lies pushed by Republican medias)

The kind of "enthusiasm" people like Bernie had also. It was my dream-team Bernie was Hillarys' VP choice.
Almost happened.

it was such a no brainer and then we got kain that no one even heard of with zero charisma who started speaking Spanish which was not smart politically during that election cycle, immidiatey losing enthusiasm from independents (or whatever left of it).

...and was very depressed. I love Moore. He's always in the trenches for us.

"Where to Invade Next" was his best yet.
