Do you think if Bernie — a man of the people — is not elected, the country will be inching closer and closer to a revolt?

Michael Moore
Well ... I don't think [that will happen], because he'll be elected. It's not a feeling. I look at the poll numbers. He beats every Republican when they go head to head. Hillary loses to one of them, ties another, and beats another by 5 points. She beats Trump by 5 points. Bernie beats Trump by 10 points. I'm optimistic that the person who is most popular will win the contest.

Sam Fragoso
Technically, yes. But for many people, it's hard to not be fearful of Washington's machinations.

Michael Moore
I'm not so worried about that. I'm more afraid that my side of the political fence is the slacker end of the fence. Getting people out to vote on Election Day is the big issue.

He should be very worried. DWS has done everything possible to tilt the scales in this primary, and that has meant moving the debates to times no one is watching and not bothering to stress GOTV. The results aren't hard to see, and it's going to be hard to turn them around by the general election--especially if Hillary gets the nomination, because she's impossible to be very enthusiastic about to begin with.
