Michael Moore, the acclaimed director of "Fahrenheit 9/11," has reiterated his forecast that former President Trump will fail in his attempt to regain the presidency, asserting that Trump is "toast."
In a recent interview on MSNBC's "Ayman," as reported by The Hill, Moore expressed his belief that Trump supporters and the MAGA nation will be taken aback by the election results. "I think that they are going to be very surprised Im talking about the Trump people and the MAGA nation by whats going to happen on Tuesday," he stated.
Moore, a vocal critic of Trump and a winner of the prestigious Academy Award, had previously declared on his website that "Trump is toast." He reaffirmed this sentiment just two days before Election Day, stating, "I feel the same way that I felt a few weeks ago that Trump is toast. Absolutely, I feel it more now."
However, the 70-year-old filmmaker was cautious not to sound overly confident, reminding his audience that the work is not yet complete. "I dont want to say it too loudly, because our work isnt done, right?" he said, emphasizing the importance of continued efforts to encourage voter turnout. "We all have doors to knock on tomorrow. We all have to make sure we get people to vote," he added.
Despite his caution, Moore expressed optimism and hope for a potential victory by Vice President Harris. He acknowledged that his optimism might be met with skepticism, especially from Trump supporters. "Frankly, I know people watching this [will say] Mike, how can you say that? You know all these crazy people, and all these Trumpsters and MAGA nation. And what I say to them is, honestly, I have a lot of personal, deep faith in my fellow Americans," he said.
Moore argued that the Trump campaign is out of touch with the majority of Americans, who he believes reject divisiveness and the threat of violence. "The majority of Americans do not want this divisiveness, they dont want the threat of violence," he said. He added that while disagreements are inevitable, they should not escalate beyond the ballot box. "We are OK to disagree with each other, but thats where it ends. We go to vote, who wins wins. Half the time Ive been very happy with whos won, and the other half the time I havent been, and then we move on with our lives," he concluded.
