Oscar-winning filmmaker Michael Moore is a national treasure. If it weren’t for Moore, how could we ever learn about how great socialism is? How could we ever learn that a multi-millionaire is supposedly a man of the people?
Well, the U.S. might lose Moore in the coming months because he might be moving to Canada.
From The Canadian Press:
If things go awry for Michael Moore following the release of his latest politically charged documentary, the progressive provocateur says he has a plan to escape potential persecution in the U.S.: He’s moving to Canada.
It’s a pronouncement so common among aggrieved American liberals that it borders on a political trope. But Moore says he’s serious about his plot to vacate the U.S., and not only because of his long-standing affinity for Canada.
For Moore, the prospect of becoming a political refugee seems starkly plausible under the leadership of U.S. President Donald Trump, whom he portrays as a geopolitical threat in “Fahrenheit 11/9,” set to hit theatres Friday.
“(Trump) absolutely hates democracy, and he believes in the autocrat, in the authoritarian,” Moore said in a recent interview at the Toronto International Film Festival, where the film premiered earlier this month.
“I want us to survive this, but I can’t make any guarantees that that’s what’s going to happen. We’re in a bad place. We’re on the precipice of some very awful stuff.”
How many times has Moore and the left threatened to move to Canada if they don’t get their way?
Barbara Streisand, Lena Dunham, Chelsea Handler, and Bryan Cranston have all said they would move to Canada if Donald Trump became president. Well, nearly two years later, and they’re still living in the U.S.
I hope Bryan Cranston continues to act, but please Michael Moore go away.
Michael: Before you go, could you answer one question for me?
Why the hell are you still here anyway?
And since you enjoy government takings so much, I doubly hope you enjoy your future double taxation on your income!
