I’m no fan of either Michael Moore or Bill Maher, but every once in a great while they get something right that deserves noting. Today is one of those great whiles.
On his Facebook page on Friday, the filmmaker Moore, who has obviously seen the Democrat Party’s latest polling data, put up a post warning his fans of a Biden trainwreck coming. He warned them that voter enthusiasm for President Donald Trump is “OFF THE CHARTS” and that a replay of the 2016 election could be on the way.
From a report at The Hill:
VDO.AI Filmmaker Michael Moore warned Democrats that President Trump appears to have momentum behind his reelection campaign in key battleground states, with the progressive activist saying enthusiasm for Trump is “OFF THE CHARTS” compared with Democratic nominee Joe Biden.
Moore pointed to polling in battleground states such as Minnesota and Michigan in making the case that Trump was running alongside or ahead of Biden in key areas, setting himself up for another potential upset in November.
“Are you ready for a Trump victory? Are you mentally prepared to be outsmarted by Trump again? Do you find comfort in your certainty that there is no way Trump can win? Are you content with the trust you’ve placed in the DNC [Democratic National Committee] to pull this off?” Moore wrote in a Facebook post on Friday.
“I’m warning you almost 10 weeks in advance. The enthusiasm level for the 60 million in Trump’s base is OFF THE CHARTS! For Joe, not so much,” he added. “Don’t leave it to the Democrats to get rid of Trump. YOU have to get rid of Trump. WE have to wake up every day for the next 67 days and make sure each of us are going to get a hundred people out to vote. ACT NOW!”
[End]
Isn’t that wonderful? Isn’t it great to see this human pig flying into another fit of rage and fear? Simply delightful.
HBO’s Bill Maher, another celebrity with whom the Democrats share information and talking points, said on his Friday night show that he is feeling “very nervous, the same way I did four years ago at this time” about the likelihood that President Trump would win the November election.
From a report at DailyWire:
The Left is starting to realize that Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden might not coast to victory in November as easily as they have told themselves he would.
On Friday, “Real Time” host Bill Maher became the latest left-leaning member of the media to voice his concerns that President Donald Trump might actually win re-election. Speaking with MSNBC host Joy Reid of “The ReidOut,” Maher expressed his concerns about how the Republican National Convention may have spoken to voters.
“I don’t know if this stuff works, but it might,” Maher said, as reported by Fox News. “I am feeling less confident about this — maybe it’s just their convention bump got to me, but I’m feeling less confident than I was a month ago.” Reid agreed with Maher that the RNC was a “smoothly produced thing” and went on to deride the “four black guys” and the “women” who spoke at the convention as tokens that provided a “permission” slip for people who may have been uncomfortable supporting Trump again.
Maher said the RNC strategy was “effective” and noted Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron’s speech as resonating with African Americans.
“He was pushing back on Joe Biden for saying, you know, if you vote for Trump, you ain’t Black and I don’t think that is a good thing for Joe Biden to have said,” Maher said. “He [Cameron] said ‘I have my own mind.’”
“People do have their own minds. I’ve never been a fan of conformity. I’ve never been a fan of, ‘We all wear pink on Wednesday,’ we all have to do this, we all have to say this. … I don’t bend the knee and I get that people are pushing back at that kind of stuff,” Maher added.

Neither Maher nor Moore would say it, but the ongoing riots being staged by Democrat support groups Antifa and BLM in Democrat-controlled cities all over the country are one of the main reasons why the polling and political equation are shifting beneath Biden’s feet.
CNN’s despicable Don Lemon – with whom the Democrats also share their talking points and polling data – hasn’t been bashful about talking about this inconvenient truth, though. He talked about it on his show for the second straight night on Friday, this time urging Biden to “give a speech” condemning the Democrat-sponsored violence, as if that would make it all better:
“Presentation matters,” he said. “To come out and stand at a podium in D.C., or wherever, even in Wisconsin, and say — listen, this is what I expected today if they were going to really come out and do the thing right, whether it was going to be Kamala Harris or Joe Biden: ‘Good afternoon, everyone. The rioting has to stop. The violence has to stop. And under a Biden-Harris administration, there will be no lawlessness on the street.’ ”
This is sheer panic, folks. These parrots for the Democrat Party know a looming train wreck when they see one. After all, they lived through it just four short years ago, and they hear that Trump train a-comin’ round the bend again.
Isn’t it all just absolutely glorious?
That is all.
If Hillary had listened to Michael Moore and taken his advice in 2016, she would have won the election. Lets hope Biden also ignores him.
“Neither Maher nor Moore would say it,”
It’s the riots, stupid.
Train Wreck?
Only if the train is loaded with nukes as is going 200 mph on California’s tracks to nowhere with 10 miles built...
I think Nancy will come unglued in ways like we have never seen and I am looking forward to it.

She is really going to come unglued when she loses the speaker ship again!
I highly doubt Bill Maher was feeling nervous at this time four years ago. I don’t watch him so I would not know. If I had to guess, I’d say he was gloating over Hillary’s imminent victory.
I wouldn’t put it past them to have a Joe Biden look a like in the debates.
Moreover, I personally believe that most MSM polling is highly flawed, and its got a lot worse since 2016. The left and corrupt media have destroyed societal trust, and I personally believe very few conservatives will answer polling questions, or if they do (like me) they lie through their teeth to screw up their results. No one owes these cretins the truth.
“Are you ready for a Trump victory? Are you mentally prepared to be outsmarted by Trump again? Do you find comfort in your certainty that there is no way Trump can win? Are you content with the trust you’ve placed in the DNC [Democratic National Committee] to pull this off?” Moore wrote in a Facebook post on Friday.
The other day, I saw that snarky silly grinning guy from Meet The Press, I forget his name, but he was at a map on the wall, and was grinning that Biden was ahead in states totalling 312 electoral votes, with Trump ahead in states for only 126 electoral votes. With 270 needed for election, he seemed confident in what the polls are showing.
Liberal overconfidence may yet be a factor in this election, based on how they seem to be trumpeting these polls.
“...I wouldn’t put it past them to have a Joe Biden look a like in the debates....”
Kinda like they’re doing with Lil Ruthie?? She’s probably been dead for years.
They’ll probably do the same with old slow PedoJoe.
You mean the wreck hasn’t already happened?
He can't say that - or anything remotely like it. The Left will walk out. He has to keep on with the Nadler Meme: "It isn't really happening - and when it is, it's being done by right-wing extremists."
The democrats should listen to Moore. He nailed 2016 like no one else. If you haven’t seen this, watch it
I really expected Joe Biden to go to his convention and say “Look, I disagree with everything Trump says, but we have to come together as a people and condemn absolutely the looting and rioting. Let’s work with these mayors to get their cities under control so the real protesters can march for justice...blah blah blah.” Then his friends in BLM and Antifa would “magically” stand down.
He loses nothing by condemning the violence, he keeps his street creds with those who still think the protests are legit, and he shows the ability to work with the other side of the aisle.
Seems simple, right? Instead the old guy trotted out the lie about “Fine People” and the rest is history. Now it’s too late for him to condemn the violence. It will make people ask why he waited so long if he really believed it needed to be said.
Democrats believed they had this election in the bag.
EVERYONE they know would do anything to get rid of Trump.
So hubris took over. And they began to burn sh!t down.
Politicians, beholden to and fearful of their monster thought they were riding a new zeitgeist. And that they would get away with it.
How broken hearted they must be as they come to the realization that Americans don’t like to see their cities burn. And will do whatever it takes to stop it.
The botox will melt off her face. I bet she throws the gavel the last time she gets to use it.
