Trump says Michael Moore a communist

Documentation, observers say Trump ‘communist’ accusation against Michael Moore not too far off
Duh

  Evidence shows Moore has a long history of pro-communist sympathies dating back to at least 1986 when he was fired from Mother Jones magazine for refusing to publish an article by Paul Berman that was critical of the communist Sandinistas’ human rights record.

Moore even expressed admiration for Castro in his 1997 book “Downsize This.”

The filmmaker also spoke at the 1998 Socialist Scholars Conference at the City University of New York, which was sponsored by the university’s chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America. The theme of the conference that year was “One Hundred and Fifty Years After The Communist Manifesto.”

An October 2002 capture of Moore’s website from Archive.org shows him recommending links to the Democratic Socialists of America and Solidarity: A Socialist Feminist Organization.

Trump calls Moore a communist
“Michael Moore is a communist Leninist, Stalinist,” political commentator and former leftist David Horowitz told The Daily Caller, noting the Mother Jones Sandinista episode.

But Horowitz’s colleague and fellow former communist-turned-conservative activist Ron Radosh disagrees with Horowitz’s description of Moore as a “communist”, saying the filmmaker is more of a garden variety ‘60s neo-Marxist radical than a Marxist-Leninist in the mold of the Communist Party USA.

“He is anti-American, pro any activism, and a demagogue,” Radosh told TheDC. “CPrs [communist party members] were shrewder and more ideological, adhering to a line. Moore knows nothing about Marxism and couldn’t care less about it.

“I would call him a far-left extremist and radical, who follows the most extreme trajectory of the 60’s New Left.”

Yep. The only thing saving this country is that Obama's crew are all ineffective retread hippies or more modern hipsters that were brain-screwed by these hippies.

Any real trots and stalinists worming their way into power are the real threat ( and there are a few of those about as well ... take a good hard look at the green movement ).

Trump doesn't have a clue about good looking hairdos (on himself) but he is enough of a capitalist to recognize a communist when he sees one. Even a crappy wannabe which is really all that that fat f**k Moore is!

How would Mikey have acted or thought differently if he was merely a progressive Democrat?
