The Terms of My Surrender.
Michael Moore's recent Broadway show--The Terms of My Surrender--opened in late July for a 12-week limited engagement. As scheduled, the play ended on October 22nd.
In the play, Moore took aim at the Trump administration and its policies. Moore set aside a box every night for Trump, who never took up the offer. Moore intends to take his show on the road - with a The Terms of My Surrender tour in summer 2018.
On Saturday evening, six days after The Terms of My Surrender closed on Broadway, Trump launched a bizarre and factually incorrect attack on Moore via Twitter.
\u201cWhile not at all presidential I must point out that the Sloppy Michael Moore Show on Broadway was a TOTAL BOMB and was forced to close. Sad!\u201d— Donald J. Trump (@Donald J. Trump) 1509229182
Moore swung back with a volley of 12 Tweets:
\u201c1) You must have my smash hit of a Broadway show confused with your presidency-- which IS a total bomb and WILL indeed close early. NOT SAD https://t.co/URgXgzWWVk\u201d— Michael Moore (@Michael Moore) 1509242278
\u201c2) Today, 1 U.S. service member was killed & 6 injured in our never-ending war in Afghanistan. You,our President, are not even aware of this\u201d— Michael Moore (@Michael Moore) 1509242278
\u201c3) You ARE aware I'm a "B'way star" & I guess this bothers you more. SAD.\u201d— Michael Moore (@Michael Moore) 1509242278
\u201c4) Prosecutor Mueller's GrandJury has just approved the 1st criminal indictments of your administration. R u trying 2 distract us from this?\u201d— Michael Moore (@Michael Moore) 1509242278
\u201c5) 38 days after Maria, 3/4 of PR (our fellow Americans) have NO electricity. Yet u are more upset that so many ppl saw my B'way show. SAD.\u201d— Michael Moore (@Michael Moore) 1509242278
\u201c6) They say Twitter "distracts" you from your presidency. But Twitter IS YOUR PRESIDENCY! It's all you know how to do. #LOSER!\u201d— Michael Moore (@Michael Moore) 1509242484
\u201c7) And now, for this weekend, I\u2019m your latest distraction from your crimes. Ha! Raucous & joyous crowds every nite on B\u2019way- & u missed out!\u201d— Michael Moore (@Michael Moore) 1509243590
\u201c8) It was the highest grossing play (non-musical) of the summer, despite my offering $29 cheap seats + free student tix so ALL could afford.\u201d— Michael Moore (@Michael Moore) 1509242278
\u201c9) As announced on May 1st, it was always a "12-WEEK-ONLY" run, due to my commitments to my upcoming primetime TV series & my new movie.\u201d— Michael Moore (@Michael Moore) 1509242278
\u201c10) On Broadway, Donald, they call it a "LIMITED ENGAGEMENT" -- just like we\u2019re planning on making your presidency.\u201d— Michael Moore (@Michael Moore) 1509242278
\u201c11) For now, at least, I know I still have one fan in the White House (thx for your unwavering support, Jared!)\u201d— Michael Moore (@Michael Moore) 1509242278
\u201cAnd thanks to all who filled this beautiful theater for each show!\u201d— Michael Moore (@Michael Moore) 1509242484
