Filmmaker and liberal activist Michael Moore predicted President Trump would win the 2020 election.
Moore said in an interview with Democracy Now! that Trump would win if the “vote were today” because his support has not fallen “one inch” in the Midwest. “I believe, he would win the electoral states that he would need,” he said, adding that the president’s supporters are “even more rabid than it was before because they’re afraid now. They’re afraid he could lose, because they watched his behavior. So they are voracious in their appetite for Donald Trump. That’s the bad news.”
The liberal activist claimed that demographics were on the Democrats side, with an electorate that is 70% young people, minorities, and women. “What we have to do is we have to make sure we don’t give them another Hillary Clinton to vote for,” he said.
Moore suggested Democrats pick a “fighter” to go up against Trump. “You forgot us a long time ago out here, and we will not put up with this anymore. We’re not going to vote for Trump, but we’re not going to tolerate you sending us another Republican-lite Democrat,” he said. “If we go that route, if we go that route, it’s guaranteed we will lose the Electoral College.”
