Documentary filmmaker Michael Moore says he agrees with Chris Matthews that Bernie Sanders won the first Democratic debate.
“Never be4 @ a mainstream debate has a Prez candidate dared 2 question the core system of wealth & power,” Moore said of Sanders’s performance.It's refreshing to hear the opinion of someone not paid for by the MSM.“History was made tonite: A conscientious objector running 4 Prez, who believes in democratic socialism, stood & spoke & was wildly applauded,” he added.
Moore praised Sanders’s handling of both fiscal and racial issues.
“Thank you Bernie for just saying it: Black Lives Matter,” he wrote. "And for mentioning Sandra Bland – killed in a cop’s jail in Texas.”
“Quote of the night – Sanders: 'Congress doesn’t regulate Wall Street, Wall Street regulates Congress,” Moore said. "Huge applause.”
Moore also charged that Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton’s is not capable of resisting wealthy special interests.
“Well, any of you with a good sniffer knows what I know from what we all just heard: The banks are going to love President H. Clinton,” he said.
“Clinton said she told the banks to ‘cut it out’– yeah, that worked,” Moore then quipped.
