The clip of Michael Moore praising Trump is selectively edited to remove the context that Trump will disappoint supporters.

So this is a really good indication of how Alex's show is basically just the right-wing social media meme recap show. This clip of Michael Moore was making the rounds, but it's not new. It's been posted around on social media a number of times, but it traces back to Moore's one-man show from 2016 called Michael Moore in Trumpland. This clip is selectively edited, of course, to remove the context of what he said. Naturally. In the part that's played, Moore is expressing what the allure of Trump is and how he represents a big middle finger that people want to give to the man. If you watch the rest of what he's saying, Moore goes on to explain that Trump is never going to do the things he says that you like, that you want to happen, and you're going to be disappointed once the feeling of throwing up that middle finger wears off. So this is just like, I don't know, eight-year-old clip with swelling music behind it being presented dishonestly.

Michael Moore has been very public about wanting the Sandy Hook crime scene photos released to counter claims that the event was fake.

And then he ends up talking about this other thing that has been developing, and that is that there are people, particularly Michael Moore, has been very public about this, that want the pictures from Sandy Hook to be released because there are tons of people who are saying it's fake. And the motivation behind the desire to release the pictures, the crime scene photos, is to cut that off.
