There is something to be said for someone who shows pride in their work. Then there’s the unabashed vanity of lie-ridden documentary filmmaker Michael Moore.
According to a Variety article posted on his Facebook page, Moore appears to have agreed to a deal with Hollywood blowhard Harvey Weinstein to produce and distribute Moore’s upcoming documentary, “11/9.”
According to the Blaze:
It’s called “Fahrenheit 11/9” — a reference not only to Moore’s previous flick “Fahrenheit 9/11” but also to Nov. 9, 2016, the date Trump’s win over Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton became official.
“I’m making a movie to get us out of this mess,” Moore said on Facebook of his newest project. “I’ve f***ing had it.”
It’s not clear by Moore’s statement on his Facebook page whether he’s "had it" because of President Trump, or just reality in general.
Moore actually believes that his film will bring the collapse of the Trump administration. He should just become a politician, since he loves himself and doesn’t know how to tell the truth.
Entertainment Weekly published a statement from Moore:
"The filming has been done under a strict cloak of secrecy and is expected to be key in dissolving Trump’s ‘teflon’ shield and, in turn, his presidency,” a press release reads. Via statement, Moore continues: “No matter what you throw at him, it hasn’t worked. No matter what is revealed, he remains standing. Facts, reality, brains cannot defeat him. Even when he commits a self-inflicted wound, he gets up the next morning and keeps going and tweeting. That all ends with this movie."
So, Moore is going to reveal the secrets behind the Trump presidency by gathering information “under a strict cloak of secrecy.” In essence, he’s allowed secrecy in doing his job, but people he disagrees with don’t have the same privilege.
Not to be outdone, Weinstein released a statement about how giddy his company was to procure yet another Moore masterpiece.
“The movie [“Fahrenheit 9/11”] broke all records then, and we plan to do so again,” the statement read. “This movie will have one of the most innovative distribution plans ever. Now more than ever, Michael’s appetite for the truth is crucial. We are ecstatic to be a part of this revolution.”
Weinstein is partially correct: Moore certainly has an appetite, but it’s not for the truth.
