Trump with unhinged 193-word Truth Social rant after Oscar winner calls him out

By Tom Wrobleski | wrobleski@siadvance.comPresident Donald Trump is once again battling an old foe. The president on Wednesday unleashed a huge diatribe on Truth Social aimed at Oscar-winning filmmaker Michael Moore. Moore, a vocal critic of Trump’s for years, on CNN on Tuesday spoke about his support for democratic socialist Abdul El-Sayed, the Democratic Party candidate for US Senate in Michigan. Moore, who won a Best Documentary Feature Oscar for 2002’s “Bowling for Columbine,” said that he thinks his friend El-Sayed can beat former GOP Rep. Mike Rogers for the seat and crush any Trump hopes for a third term in the White House, the Daily Beast reported. “Believe me, I would not encourage anybody to get involved in something that’s going to give us the third Trump term,” Moore told Laura Coates.“And everybody watching this knows right now this guy still hasn’t stopped thinking about the third term,” Moore said. “So we all need to be active, we need to get up. Young people don’t give up. Don’t give up at all.”Trump was quick to fire back at Moore in what the Daily Beast said was a 193-word screed on his Truth Social platform. The president wrote: “Michael Moore, the failed political ‘pundit’ who has been losing to me for years, was ranting that, ‘We lost in 2024, and just can’t take it anymore.’ No Michael, just get used to more losing! You’ve been a Loser all your life, and nothing’s going to change. Abdul, your new Communist Comrade, will not be able to save you. He knows you are a failed LOWLIFE, and he wants to pick up where you have left. For thousands of years, the concept of Communist Policies have never worked, and they’re not going to work now, especially under the tremendous transformational SUCCESS that the Trump Administration has brought forth, for the entire World to see and follow — Best Economic Numbers, EVER, Best Trade Numbers, Best Export Numbers, Biggest Investment in our Country, and on, and on. This is the Golden Age of America, and a small group of misfits, like you, Abdul, and others, won’t be able to destroy it, and change the course of History in so doing. It’s too big, it’s too powerful, and it’s too good. See you on the Political Battlefield.”While the US Constitution bars Trump from seeking a third term, the president has often mused about staying in the White House past the end of his second term.
