Michael Moore in TrumpLand Page #2

Synopsis: Oscar-winner Michael Moore dives deep in the heart of hostile TrumpLand territory with his daring, profound, and uproarious one-man show. When the show gets banned from the first town they tried, Mike moves on to an even bigger community of Trump supporters in the ironically-named Clinton County, Ohio. Performed, shot, and edited just weeks before the 2016 election, this heartfelt, honest, and hilarious concert film is essential election viewing for a divided America. With a title like Michael Moore in TrumpLand, you may think you know what's in store, but the film is sure to surprise. Entertaining, outraging, and informing in equal measure, no matter who you're voting for, this movie has something for everybody.

Thank you, thank you,

you can applaud that.

You know we're all

Americans, right?

Let's just start there.

Regardless who we're

voting for, right?

(audience applauds)

We're all in the same boat,

and we're gonna sink

or swim together.

And I'd rather we swim.

Because I believe we have more

things in common than not.

We, we believe in

the same things.

First of all we want the best

schools for our kids, right?

Trump voters?

Right?

Right?

You want the best schools

for your kids, that's not,

I know, I know there's a rule,

don't agree with Michael

Moore on anything,

but I'm, I'm trying to come

out and meet you halfway.

And the things we

don't agree on,

alright, you love your guns.

I don't want a gun,

I don't get a gun.

I won't get one.

You don't believe in abortion.

Okay, sir?

Do not have an abortion.

Don't, if you are against

it, don't get one.

Who doesn't like the

Supreme Court's decision

on gay marriage in here?

You don't support it.

Right? Right.

Anybody else back there?

Sir?

Okay, sir?

Then don't get gay married.

Right?

It's like, if,

if two gay people

want to get married,

let them be married.

You don't want to be gay,

trust me, you wont like it.

Alright?

It won't, it won't feel

good, it won't look good.

(audience laughs)

I'm convinced that will

end up in gay divorce,

which isn't even legal yet!

They only legalized

gay marriage.

They forgot to

legalize gay divorce!

I don't even know

what that looks like!

(audience laughs)

So I met one of the

five Democrats in town.

(audience laughs)

And he comes up to me yesterday

and he goes, "Mike, Mike,

we got to do something

"about the millennials.

"They're, they're not gonna

vote, they're not voting.

"What are we gonna do

about the millennials?"

And I said, "Well, nothing.

"We already did something,

we raised them."

That was a lot.

We raised this generation,

my generation did, right?

We raised you, those of you

who are millennials in here.

And you turned out,

I think, pretty good.

I think your generation is, yes.

(audience applauds)

You're smart.

You come over and change

the ink cartridges

for us in our printers.

(audience laughs)

When we can't get our device

to work, we call you up

and you explain to us

how to turn it off,

then turn it back on,

and it magically works

again every time.

And you're not haters.

This is a generation

of non-haters.

Have you noticed that?

I mean really the majority,

(audience applauds)

the majority of

18 to 35 year olds

are, you know, they

don't hate people

because of their skin color,

or because they're in love

with someone of

their same gender.

I don't see it and it

makes me feel really good

that we did something right.

So I said to this guy, I

said, "Really, I don't,

"I don't think it's on us

to do something about them.

"Because they didn't

create climate change,

"they didn't send

the troops to Iraq.

"You know, millennials

didn't cause

"the Wall Street collapse.

"Why is it on them to fix our

"shitty situation that

we've handed them?"

I mean seriously.

I mean.

I mean, there's something

about when you're that age

and you're rebellious, and

I want you to be that way.

I don't want you compromising.

You got plenty of time in

the real world to compromise.

The rest of your life

you'll have plenty

of time to compromise

and be in some shitty

job that you can't stand,

you know, to be in

some loveless marriage,

why be that way at 19?

Just don't compromise,

but also understand too,

that sometimes,

sometimes we have to take

some medicine to get better.

And taking medicine isn't

really a compromise,

it's a smart thing to do.

So you'll know what to do.

It's not the kids

I'm worried about.

The kids are alright.

It's the angry white guy.

His days are numbered.

Total number of white guys

over the age of 35 now in

the United States, 19%.

That's all we are guys.

(audience applauds)

Hey!

Hey!

What, they're

cheering our demise,

(audience laughs)

our extinction!

That's what's going on

here, you know that right?

We know it, we guys know it.

We know it's over for us.

We had a good run, 10,000

years wasn't bad, right guys?

Right?

(audience applauds)

And now here we are

in the 21st century.

For the first time ever,

there are now more single

women than married women,

you aware of this?

(audience applauds)

Yes, see that guys?

Yeah, because they

don't need us.

They can be single now.

100 years ago, they

couldn't be single.

We had laws that wouldn't

allow them to own property,

or have a bank account,

or get divorced, right?

They couldn't sue in court.

There are all these laws.

Check this out, if

you don't know this.

There were a long list of

laws that prohibited women

from doing the basic things

that somebody should

be able to do.

But now they don't need us.

We used to be useful

for something, right?

Well we're needed to

keep the species going.

That was our most important job.

What else were we good for?

Getting something

off the top shelf.

Except now, they've invented

in vitro fertilization,

and the portable

aluminum stepladder.

(audience laughs)

You don't need us!

You don't need us

for orgasms anymore.

Guys, you know they don't

need us for that, right?

(audience laughs)

Somebody put out a

book like 30 years ago,

"Our Bodies, Ourselves",

taught women things

that God knows they

shouldn't have been taught.

If Hillary wins, if

the women take over,

and because they don't need us,

so you know what this

is gonna lead to?

There are gonna be

internment camps for men.

(audience laughs)

And Hillary will have

all her you know,

Wellesley students there,

with her clipboards,

checking us in to

the internment camp.

They've got to pick out a few

to keep the species going.

Who are they going to pick?

The smart ones, and

the good-looking ones.

So all right,

already I'm looking at the

faces of the guys here.

They already know

they're in the camp.

We're all in line, we're

gonna be in line there,

"You in there in the camp,

yes you, keep going, you, you.

"Oh, you.

"over here."

(audience laughs)

The guys will go, "Oh

just 'cause he's got

"a good six pack for the abs?

"I was gonna start going

to the gym last month."

"Well, you should've

f***ing gone,

"because now you're

going to the camp.

"Don't worry, there's

gonna be lots of gyms

"in the guy camps."

And that's why they're so upset.

You've seen them at

the rallies, right?

These guys at the Trump

rallies, they're like,

(roars)

It's the sound of

the dying dinosaur.

(mournful roars)

The signs are

everywhere to them,

the women are taking over.

There's now more women that

go to college than men?

There's more women in

law school than men.

(audience applauds)

Whoa, no!

I predict anthropologists,

they will note the moment

it happened, when it was clear,

the men were on their way out

and the women were

on their way in

His next documentary, Sicko, which examines health care in the United States, also became one of the top ten highest-grossing documentaries. In September 2008, he released his first free movie on the Internet, Slacker Uprising, which documented his personal quest to encourage more Americans to vote in presidential elections. He has also written and starred in the TV shows TV Nation, a satirical newsmagazine television series, and The Awful Truth, a satirical show.
