The reason so many have a problem with him is that he often sensibly says things we don't really want to hear.

Look at him blame the DNC for, what, exactly? Being optimistic about states in the south? It looks like there's a real good chance GA ends up for biden and yet he talks about texas and ohio because if he said georgia his anti-democrat rant would look like the nonsense that it is.

enough Dem votes can change the direction of specific areas. Look no further than Harris county, TX for proof.

...Michael Moore has been begging Democrats to PAY ATTENTION to Americans who work with their hands. His ego should not be the reason we disregard his message.

Blue collar workers and rural resident share most of the same challenges as marginalized urban dwellers. We have let the coastal investor class and the behemoth defense, oil, and healthcare industries divide those with common interests and purchase an enabling government to guarantee their wealth and status.

His films show dark truths about the reality vs. the mythology of the American story.

It was close enough that he may have possibly scared enough blue-collar Democrats off their couch, who the hell knows?
