Michael Moore warned his audience that even he knew sounded a little shocking coming from him: “[Donald] Trump is smarter than us.”

On the latest episode of his Rumble podcast, released Sunday, Moore said many are “concerned and nervous” about November’s election, and he noted that Michigan’s Democratic primary results showed that Trump winning is a “legitimate fear.”

Moore was one of the activists behind a movement in Michigan encouraging voters to cast “uncommitted” ballots to protest President Joe Biden’s support of Israel in the Israel-Hamas war amid growing civilian casualties in Gaza.

“You can lose michigan just by having 10,000 people sit it out,” Moore said.

The “uncommitted” movement ended up receiving more than 100,000 votes.

Moore turned to Trump and admitted his latest warning to his listeners might get them calling for him to be locked away.

“We don’t want to say this out loud, but I’m going to say it, and the reason we need to be concerned is that Trump is smarter than us,” the Canadian Bacon director said. “I’ll just let that sink in for a second…I know, I know, you’re calling the people to come find me, the guys in the white uniforms with the big net, and take me away. Are you crazy? What do you mean he’s smarter than us?”

Moore clarified that in some ways, Trump is “dumber,” but “I’m talking about the way throughout his entire life he’s been able to pull shit off and get away with it. It is an amazing record. You know the record.”

Moore expressed concern that Trump will be successful in delaying all of his trials until past November’s election. The director declared that the former president has never “paid a price” for a “variety of his behaviors, crimes, various things he did with his father, racist stuff, sexual assault, etc., etc.”

The director theorized that even if Trump is caught in the midst of a criminal trial, he could likely win a not-guilty verdict or at least a hung jury.

“You must marvel at how somebody that stupid is that smart when it comes to the performance of his evil and his ability to never have to pay for it,” Moore said.
