The Terms of My Surrender.
Trump Trolls Michael Moore; Moore Fights Back
Only thing Trump got right: “While not at all presidential”
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.
Moore swung back with a volley of 12 Tweets:
An Urgent Message From Our Co-Founder
Dear Common Dreams reader, It’s been nearly 30 years since I co-founded Common Dreams with my late wife, Lina Newhouser. We had the radical notion that journalism should serve the public good, not corporate profits. It was clear to us from the outset what it would take to build such a project. No paid advertisements. No corporate sponsors. No millionaire publisher telling us what to think or do. Many people said we wouldn't last a year, but we proved those doubters wrong. Together with a tremendous team of journalists and dedicated staff, we built an independent media outlet free from the constraints of profits and corporate control. Our mission has always been simple: To inform. To inspire. To ignite change for the common good. Building Common Dreams was not easy. Our survival was never guaranteed. When you take on the most powerful forces—Wall Street greed, fossil fuel industry destruction, Big Tech lobbyists, and uber-rich oligarchs who have spent billions upon billions rigging the economy and democracy in their favor—the only bulwark you have is supporters who believe in your work. But here’s the urgent message from me today. It's never been this bad out there. And it's never been this hard to keep us going. At the very moment Common Dreams is most needed, the threats we face are intensifying. We need your support now more than ever. We don't accept corporate advertising and never will. We don't have a paywall because we don't think people should be blocked from critical news based on their ability to pay. Everything we do is funded by the donations of readers like you. When everyone does the little they can afford, we are strong. But if that support retreats or dries up, so do we. Will you donate now to make sure Common Dreams not only survives but thrives? —Craig Brown, Co-founder |
