Even as the world reels in shock and horror at the election of Donald Trump to Presidentship, filmmaker and activist Michael Moore prodded the Democratic Party with a Morning After To-Do list.
The list exploded with a count of more than 180,331 shares, more than 393,000 likes, and more than 18,000 comments. It is quite sobering. The first item says: "Take over the Democratic Party and return it to the people. They have failed us miserably."
Moore then adds that Democrats need to "fire the pundits, pollsters, and members of the media who refused to let go of a narrative about the election that proved to be incorrect, force aside any Democratic members of Congress who aren't ready to fight, and remind everyone they meet that Hillary Clinton won the popular vote."
The third point talks about Democratic politicians who need to "step out of the way", unless they are willing to "fight, resist and obstruct in the way Republicans did against President Obama every day for eight full years".
Although his vote had gone to Bernie Sanders in the primaries, in Trumpland Moore spun a strong argument regarding why America should choose Clinton, not Trump. Moreover, he predicted that Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Ohio would be key states in the battle. He predicted that they could become "Brexit states".
The fourth item is shocking to Democrats. Even as they put up posts related to their own stunned and shocked feelings, he wrote: "What you mean to say is that you were in a bubble and weren't paying attention to your fellow Americans and their despair," Moore said. "YEARS of being neglected by both parties, the anger and the need for revenge against the system only grew. Along came a TV star they liked whose plan was to destroy both parties and tell them all 'You're fired!' Trump's victory is no surprise. He was never a joke. Treating him as one only strengthened him."
The prediction that the Trump presidency would win was up in his surprise film, 'Michael Moore in TrumpLand.' He was aware that "working-class middle Americans have lost their jobs, houses, and cars; they have terrible healthcare plans; they're angry."
"On Nov. 8, the dispossessed will walk into the voting booth ... and put a big f---ing X in the box next to the name of the man who has threatened to upend and overturn the very system that ruined their lives: Donald J. Trump."
Watch his video here. It cuts off before he explains that Trump's election, "the biggest f--- you ever recorded in human history," will only make you feel nice for one week.
