Despite "a Hulk-like exterior," Cesar Sayoc, the Florida man charged with sending 14 bombs to President Trump’s political opponents, was “a lost dog with no direction home,” Michael Moore wrote in an Instagram post Sunday in which he revealed footage his crew shot of a February 2017 rally that Trump held in Melbourne, Fla., in which Sayoc can been seen as part of an angry crowd chanting "CNN sucks!"
Although the three-minute-38-seconds of raw footage did not make it into Moore’s current film, Fahrenheit 11/9, Moore — who himself was pictured, with a rifle’s cross hair superimposed on his image, on Sayoc’s van — released the video on YouTube Sunday "if only to give you a momentary glimpse of him in action."
In his Instagram post, Moore explained he sent a crew that included producer Basel Hamden and longtime collaborator Eric Weinrib to the rally, which took place in the month following Trump's inauguration, not to film Trump himself but to capture footage of the crowds he attracts in order to understand "our fellow Americans, lost souls full of anger and possible violence, easily fed a pile of lies so large and toxic that we wondered if there would ever be a chance that we could bring them back from the Dark Side.”
As the camera pans back and forth across the crowd hurling invectives at the media, Sayoc, holding aloft a “CNN sucks” sign, is briefly seen four times. “If you pause on him you will see something profound,” Moore writes, “fear in his eyes.”
Sayoc, he continues, belongs to a group of men who “have been led to believe, [they] were and are under attack by the likes of Hillary and Michelle and all those ‘feminazis’ who’ve had but one mission: political castration. The theft of power from the patriarchy that had been in place for 10,000 years.” (Watch the video below; Sayoc appears at the 0:42, 1:34, 1:44 and 3:15 marks.)

Moore goes on to say, “They have been told by Trump that they are at war — WAR! — against the rest of us, the vast, vast majority who believe climate change is real, who state without equivocation that women are equal citizens with an absolute right to control their own reproductive organs, who have seen how the free enterprise system is a hoax designed to destroy the middle class and who demand that all people have a right to easily cast their votes without any interference. Cesar and his bros ARE at war, against all these things, against us, the majority, and they are at war inside of and against themselves. This is why they will lose, but not before they take a few of us with them.”
The filmmaker, who says he is no stranger to threats, admits he was “a bit shaken” to see his face among those plastered on Sayoc’s van and that the authorities have been looking to see if a package had been mailed to him, but so far, none have been discovered.
Moore concludes: “Today we grieve over the latest loss of life this weekend in Pittsburgh. As it was when fascism started to spread in the last century, it begins with just a few thugs committing random acts of violence against the people whom their leader has told them to hate. Yet no matter what awful events await us in the coming days or weeks, we will not be deterred from our singular mission: The electoral tsunami of voters we are bringing to the polls on November 6th to end this madness.”
In a previous statement, issued Friday, Moore pointed to Trump and to Fox News for creating an atmosphere that breeds right-wing violence, saying, “Sadly, the new and dangerous dynamic of political violence in America is that it is now promoted and encouraged by the President of the United States. We must vote out of office all enablers of this man and the violent culture he instigates and nurtures. There are millions and millions of us who will never be intimidated, who will never back down, and who will show up on Election Day.”

FBI did this!!
Ain’t gonna blame Trump. Not today.
Check the date and time on the film. I’m sure Moore was at one of those “all you can eat” joints.
Michael Moore who’s been fomenting hatred and division for decades can’t see the glass house he lives in.
I blame Michael Moore for the baseball shooting of Republican Congressmen and ricin powder recently sent to the president and others.
Moore has been at it far longer than Trump.
If only his movies were more civil, none of this would have happened.
Instead we got partisan, heavily edited documentaries accusing Republicans of all kinds of atrocities.
His shameless productions should be spurned, and everyone should show up next Tuesday to vote his democrats out of office.
There is nothing in that photo that proves the date. I don’t think the CNN sucks chant started that long ago.
Fatso is a liar and a fraud.
Revealed footage his crew shot of a February 2017 rally that Trump held in Melbourne, Fla.
The things one can do with photo shop media winks.
I think CNN sucks too but I don’t make bombs. Moore is an idiot..a fat idiot.
Old news. Mikey, try to keep up.
Michael as usual is projecting his faults onto us. We are all not as fat you Mike. For starters. Second it was you clowns and the anti trumpers, one of which just killed almost a dozen Jews, who started this war. And its not a war. It is Armageddon. If you spent some time on world events that are not political, you will notice both China and Russia announced they are preparing for war.
A better question would be how could the Secret Service allow a loon with a violent felony background get THAT close to Trump...
He was able to take his face out of the slop bucket long enough to say something? You can just feel the grease dripping down his chin.
Very intetesting.
And out of THOUSANDS of people there, thus DemocRat hack just manages to get a picture of Sayoc.
VERY INTERESTING!
Face recognition software.
You keep running digital rally footage until you get your hits.
A non-explosive collection of junk that is designed to look like bomb is not a bomb.
Similarly, a pop tart chewed into the shape of a pistol is not a pistol.
That's just too complicated for the MSM.
Michael Moore has done more damage with his latest bombs.
