Michael Moore responds to Trump’s tweet with an epic takedown, hitting Trump where it hurts the most.
Trump took a break from the golf course on Saturday to offer an unsolicited critique of Michael Moore’s limited engagement appearance on Broadway in The Terms of My Surrender.
“While 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!” he tweeted.

Michael Moore was quick to respond, launching an all out Twitter war that is continuing today.
1) 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

Moore started on Saturday with a 12-part numbered response to Trump’s tweet:
- 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.
- 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
- You ARE aware I’m a “B’way star” & I guess this bothers you more. SAD.
- Prosecutor Mueller’s Grand Jury has just approved the 1st criminal indictments of your administration. R u trying 2 distract us from this?
- 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.
- They say Twitter “distracts” you from your presidency. But Twitter IS YOUR PRESIDENCY! It’s all you know how to do.
#LOSER! - And now, for this weekend, I’m your latest distraction from your crimes. Ha! Raucous & joyous crowds every nite on B’way- & u missed out!
- It was the highest grossing play (non-musical) of the summer, despite my offering $29 cheap seats + free student tix so ALL could afford.
- 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.
- On Broadway, Donald, they call it a “LIMITED ENGAGEMENT” — just like we’re planning on making your presidency.
- For now, at least, I know I still have one fan in the White House (thx for your unwavering support, Jared!)
- And thanks to all who filled this beautiful theater for each show!
Continuing on Sunday, Moore began by mocking Friday’s explosive news report that the first indictments from Special Prosecutor Mueller’s investigation have been filed.
“What’s it like to be Donald Trump today, just hrs away from the first of many criminal indictments that could send friends & family to jail?” he tweeted.

Following up, he continued to pummel Trump, tweeting: “So after thousands of tweets where u mock disabled ppl, trash Gold Star wives & parents and just make shit up in your crude & vulgar way. I’m the 1st u decide to apologize 2 for being “not at all presidential”? Tomorrow’s arrests of your family/friends must be messing u up.”

He continued to tweet about Trump at the time of publication of this article, his latest being in response to Paul Feig, creator of “Freaks & Geeks,” and the director of “Bridesmaids,” “The Heat,” “Spy,” and “Ghostbusters.”
I guested on the @MMFlint show a couple of weeks ago and the theater was full. So, yet another lie, Lyin’ Donald. It’s an awesome show. https://t.co/34GVzGdF3w

No Paul! I just found out from the President those weren’t people in the audience! We both got tricked! Place was empty! TOTAL BOMB! https://t.co/Q5Y0H39k7n
