Michael Moore decided to stay relatively quiet with his analysis of the 2024 presidential election, opting to fill his post-election podcast with feel-good classic tunes.
On the latest Rumble episode, released Monday, Moore offered very little in the way of analysis, instead only occasionally chiming in to move from one song to the next in a nearly 30-minute episode. Songs included Gene Kelly’s Singin’ in the Rain and Fred Astaire’s Cheek to Cheek.
In between songs, Moore often sighed and added sounds that came across as if he were making a stiff drink while moving from song to song.
“Silence. Thinking. Then acting. In that order. The internet. The television. The noise is not helping. The answers are already inside us,” Moore wrote on Substack to accompany the podcast. “Enjoy the music. You did the right thing.”
Moore was very confident in Vice President Kamala Harris’s chances of victory heading into the election. The filmmaker even wrote on election day that a “tsunami of women” would prevent President-elect Donald Trump from beating Harris.
Moore has centered multiple projects around Trump, including his films Fahrenheit 11/9 and Michael Moore in TrumpLand.
“Donald, if you’re reading this, that’s why there’s so many women packing the polls today. It’s a tsunami. We arranged it. Don’t ever mess with us again,” he wrote.
In an MSNBC appearance the night before the election, Moore also declared Trump was “toast.”
“The gift that the Trump campaign keeps giving us, I don’t think they realized, I don’t think they really are in touch with where the majority of Americans are at,” he said. “The majority of Americans do not want this divisiveness, they don’t want a threat of violence.”
