President Donald Trump unloaded on Michael Moore on Wednesday night after the filmmaker implored progressive Democrats to overthrow the party’s establishment.

On Tuesday, Moore joined CNN’s election coverage, much of which focused on the Democratic primary for U.S. Senate in Michigan, where Dr. Abdul El-Sayed, a former public health official, defeated Rep. Haley Stevens, the preferred candidate of Democratic Party leadership. The race was the most expensive primary in history, as the American Israel Public Affairs Committee spent more than $30 million in ad buys to boost Stevens, a supporter of Israel. El-Sayed has said he wants the U.S. to end aid and arms shipments to the country. Stevens had a nine-to-one spending advantage in the race overall.

Moore was asked on CNN if Democrats “require a change in the establishment.”

“If I could get on my knees and beg it would be for exactly what you said, because we are not going to win the other way,” Moore replied. “We lost that way in ’24. It’s not going to happen if we allow this to happen. We are in charge of this and we need to get busy right now.”

Moore, who slammed Democratic Party establishment “hacks,” went on to praise El-Sayed.

“I’ve known Dr. El-Sayed for many years, I worked on his campaign for governor in 2018,” Moore said of his fellow Michigander. “Boy, we would be so lucky if he were our senator, representing us, and standing up for the people who are dying, dying every day over there,” Moore said.

The filmmaker’s remarks apparently caught the eye of Trump, who in a Truth Social post on Wednesday wrote:

Michael Moore, the failed political “pundit” who has been losing to me for years, was ranting that, “We lost in 2024, and just can’t take it anymore.” No Michael, just get used to more losing! You’ve been a Loser all your life, and nothing’s going to change. Abdul, your new Communist Comrade, will not be able to save you. He knows you are a failed LOWLIFE, and he wants to pick up where you have left. For thousands of years, the concept of Communist Policies have never worked, and they’re not going to work now, especially under the tremendous transformational SUCCESS that the Trump Administration has brought forth, for the entire World to see and follow — Best Economic Numbers, EVER, Best Trade Numbers, Best Export Numbers, Biggest Investment in our Country, and on, and on. This is the Golden Age of America, and a small group of misfits, like you, Abdul, and others, won’t be able to destroy it, and change the course of History in so doing. It’s too big, it’s too powerful, and it’s too good. See you on the Political Battlefield. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! President DONALD J. TRUMP

El-Sayed will face former Rep. Mike Rogers (R-MI) in the general election in November.
