Moore: I still can't get over why a woman was forced to share a stage with a sexual predator psycho

Michael Moore ‏@MMFlint
Two days later and I still can't get over why a woman was forced to share a stage with a sexual predator psychopath and suffer his abuse.


He's referring to Trump's now very well known disturbing video admission, and what we saw in the debate ---

Michael Moore ‏@MMFlint
Trump called her the devil, said he'd jail her, brought w/ him women who say they slept w/ her husband--& she still kept her grace & cool.





And an update from a heavily GOP county in OH, I haven't seen one Trump sign taken down these past several days.

These people are not only "Deplorable and proud of it" (as one hand made giant sign says on a state highway) but they clearly love a guy who says he grabs women's genitals because he's a star, avoids paying his fair share in taxes, and loves a dictator so much that he says he's a better leader than our president. They are brainwashed and hateful. I don't want to associate or even converse with them!

Speaking of conversing with them. I saw an old friend at an auction preview on Tuesday, and her new boyfriend loves Trump, I found out. I was asking if she'd seen the video from Friday, and she mouthed in silence to me, "Shhhh! He is for Trump!" and instantly, he blurted out, "BILL CLINTON IS WORSE THAN TRUMP!" and went on a rant and I just smiled and said, I see one of them admitting to forcible contact, not the other. I then told her I'd see her around.

The next time I see her, I'm going to say why are you with someone who would explode like that at the mere mention of politics? I'm also going to ask if he is violent in his language or actions. Flippin' bigots are such troublemakers - I just can't wait for election day!

Wives in America afraid of their crazy for Trump husbands. I hope they all secretly vote Hillary and lie to their spouses, if necessary.

They're too eager to parrot talking points like they'll get a cookie if they can do them all from memory.

I've been in a grocery store picking out vegetables and heard a guy change the subject about how the store gets their deliveries, into one bashing Democrats. They want to push their views constantly...

They used to look flabbergasted at me that I could spout their talking points as if NOBODY could hear the Pigman and not agree.

That is a man I have always found disgusting and nasty. All one really has to do is look at all the Dittoheads that love that douche, and that equates to how someone like Donald could become the GOP's nominee. They aren't grown ups mentally, and that's how they always have idiots and bigots in their fold (Todd Akin, Buchanan, Duke, Dubya, Delay, Scalia, Rumsfeld, Bachmann, Palin).

There was this one pair that worked in the mail room that listened to the Pigman every day while they were working and they spelled it all out how they were going to kick Clinton out and then go after Al Gore next over iced tea and then their hero Newt would be president.

These idiots actually believed a Horacio Alger myth that if they could only spew the Pigman's crap to impress the right person upstairs that they would be promoted to the Board of Directors.

The pigman's listenership has always been full of mostly big feeling types who think they're brighter than everyone. It's always fun to watch them get pissed off when things don't go as they believe they should.

As I said in another post, I hope there's millions of them because as has been said by many on here the past couple days, I'm embarrassed my fellow males across the country are still a majority for Trump according to recent polls. Hopefully that will change in a few days.

And, your image of President Carter makes me think, there is no way this country can go from his amazing life and leadership, and just 6 presidents later choose the perverted clown!

That's what he wants, is to argue and make her look mean. She was stunningly calm but didn't just ignore him - she laughed at him! I love that. Hahaha

Why should Hillary stand on the same stage as that asshole and have to listen to his horrible lies? And put up with him hulking over her?

No one should have to put up with that abuse - ever.
