"A Human Face"



Michael Moore puts a human face on the Trump community...some of it anyway. Someone like Trump was bound to show up.

Fox News, and the Republican Party guaranteed it.

The Industrial dispossessed was waiting for him. The left generally ignored them. These folks were an explosion of rage waiting to happen. Progressives could have tapped that energy, but their cultural bigotry against them, and their values prevented that.

Our tent is not actually that big. We have intolerance too.

We need to think about that.

Here's a reply from an old pal from my broadcast daze. This on Facebook where I posted this video, and my comments first.

  1. Andrea Sears "And it will feel good....f". Good ..... for? Good for a week, a month, maybe six months or a year? Good until the reality sinks in? The reality that Donald J. Trump doesn't believe anything he says, that he is unfamiliar with the concept of truth?

    For years I've said the worst fate that can befall any revolution is victory because then the slogans and the fervor of opposition becomes the drudgery of making silk purses out of sow's ears, or the other way around. And it's not fun and it often doesn't work and the people who were so excited to toss the Molotov cocktail suddenly realize that, in this case, they burned up their social security checks, their SNAP benefits, their children's future.


Stay tuned.
