Talk about flipping the narrative.
Liberal filmmaker Michael Moore is sweating it that his new film, “Trumpland,” may actually work to help elect GOP nominee Donald Trump.
Either that, or he’s desperate to call attention to the project.
Moore took to social media Wednesday to supposedly mock the candidate’s son, Donald Trump, Jr. — and the right-wing — for plugging the film:
Hey everyone – Trump, Jr. & right wing thinks my movie called "TrumpLand" is pro-Trump! Haha. Pls don't tell them otherwise! #satire #irony pic.twitter.com/difR93uzTg

The attention from Trump supporters began when a clip showing Moore giving a speech before an audience in Ohio, where the liberal filmmaker championed the “forgotten working stiff” while delving into the mindset of Trump’s appeal.
Jason Miller, senior communications adviser for the Trump campaign, went so far as to call the excerpt a “must see,” while linking to a BizPac Review article on Moore’s remarks:
Michael Moore must-see (not a typo) – disagree on many issues, but he speaks with conviction and clarity here: "https://t.co/Z1mU96doRZ"

And don’t be fooled by Moore’s antics, to include tweeting that this extra attention is only helping him by drawing eyes. He is likely worried:
They’re only helping us by sending thousands of Trump voters to iTunes to watch my movie https://t.co/GxBzaWhfds. Then the truth’ll hit ’em. https://t.co/Z9LMVVhx2f

Really worried.
Righties’ve doctored clip from my film 2 make it look pro-Trump. 7.9M views! Sending millions 2 iTunes! TrumpLand #1 pic.twitter.com/LHqPO07Va6

Regardless of how Moore refutes it, the appeal to many Trump supporters began and ended with the clip that garnered all the buzz. No matter the unlikely source, it spoke truth for so many.
