LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Michael Moore has shared his two cents as Vice President Kamala Harris competes against Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump for the White House.

Harris became the Democratic presidential nominee after President Joe Biden backed out from the November race. Moore was reportedly one of the many liberals who was demanding Biden’s withdrawal from the upcoming election.

Michael Moore says, ‘We have a history of blowing it’

Now, the film director told The Guardian, “This isn’t just a sugar high or what [recovering] heroin addicts call a pink cloud.”

“It was so depressing for so many weeks and then it was instantly not depressing. I am hopeful now but it’s ours to blow – and we have a history of blowing it,” he stated.

Moore also revealed that he expects Trump will get uncontrollable while facing Harris in an upcoming debate.

“I think I’m going to see what I was hoping for for eight years. Once anybody gets under that thin skin anything can happen. On live TV? Trump could explode, start talking like a 12-year-old, though no offense to 12-year-olds, or get up and leave,” he stated.

Michael Moore calls Kamala Harris and Tim Walz ‘people of substance’

The 70-year-old screenwriter continued, “I understand why people are nervous it might be a sugar high but Harris and Walz are people of substance. They’re being slow and cautious enough to get it together.

“It’s just been a couple of weeks. They are going to have to tell us what they’re going to do and hopefully come up with the right thing. And there will be mistakes.”

Besides, Moore also gave a piece of advice to Harris and her running mate Tim Walz.

“Do weird and cringe until the debate and then nail him. But nail him with irony, satire, and a simple way to point out the beyond weird absolute idiocy and insanity of what these two men are talking about. Reach them on a commonsense level so it doesn’t matter if you’re Democrat or Republican,” he added.

Netizens mock Donald Trump, say he ‘talks like a five-year-old’

Meanwhile, people online have reacted to Michael Moore’s comments.

A reader below the MEDIAITE article commented, “Trump at best has been talking like a 12-year-old ever since he was 12 years old.”

Another reader said, “Trump, ‘Start Talking Like a 12 Year Old” he’s always done that. It’s how he connects with his constituency.”

“Harris should mostly ignore him during the debate and simply answer the questions asked (with a large dose of side-eye his way),” someone else suggested.

One stated, “Michael: You're over-estimating his IQ level when raising it as high as a 12-year-old's, because the way he is now, it's probably not much higher than that of an 8 or 9-year-old child.”

One indivdual added, “I remember when Trump was being interviewed in the White House, didnt like the questions so ended the interview, and then walked over to the desk and pretended to work.”

“That old? He usually talks like a five-year-old,” a comment read.

Another comment was “He won't start talking like a 12 year-old. His supporters would start calling him an elitist if he upped his vocabulary that much.”
