Summary

Michael Moore can't believe how the tables have turned.

Two months ago, the result of our upcoming 2024 presidential election seemed a foregone conclusion, and a second Trump presidency seemed inevitable. But now — just 71 days before the November 5th election — Michael dares to feel hopeful that we may just elect not only our first woman president, but our most progressive!

Also on today's episode, Michael discusses the one stain on an otherwise spotless Democratic Convention: Their disrespect of Palestinian-Americans by not letting a single one of them speak on the stage. Shame! We, their allies, will not be silent about the slaughter in Gaza.
