In the current circumstances you might want to rephrase that

Moore talks a lot of nonsense most of the time, but he's spot on here.

Can someone paraphrase what he says so I don't have to listen to him?

1. Trump gets support from a lot of disenfranchised / unemployed who are the victims of capitalism (the system / the establishment).
2. Clinton is part of the establishment
3. Voting for Trump is empowering the powerless & is throwing a spanner in the establishment works
4. Trump was created by the media & now the media is turing on their creation
5. My enemies enemy is my friend & that is who MM will be voting for
6. Jezza is also anti-capitalist
7. That he too is going to buy a bunker with tin hats - well maybe not.

That the charity does good (both for the disadvantaged and for Clinton's bank account) is undeniable. But follow the money: what did the King of Morocco expect to gain personally from that $12 million? A warm glow of satisfaction? Just like the warm glow coal miners and property developers get when they fund the Liberal Party's election campaigns. True altruists, all of them.
Alternatively, the facts that Clinton is going to be the next President, and that most observers expected she would become the next President at the point in time the donation was made, and that Morocco might benefit from a friendly relationship with the next administration, may not be a coincidence. But what would (veteran Watergate journalist) Woodward know about political scandals?
This "but the documents were stolen" defence from the Clinton campaign isn't going to wash any more. So were Snowden's NSA leaks and Bradley Manning's Iraq War document dump. Lights on; face the music.

You might be confusing me with someone who used the stolen documents defence. Show me where I did.
Now, the fact that Morocco wants the US to buy more dates brooks no issue with me. Let's hope Morocco benefits from a good deal with the US, they are one of the few moderate muslim nation states left these days & I love their dates.
Hashish, Bakshish, it's all the same

Sorry, I forgot.
USA = the United Socialists of America

Scandal emanating frorn the bunkers in the USSR
Trump has been Trumped. Crooked Donald: go figure. I will never believe it:
On Monday, an investigation by The Telegraph (UK) exposed key Trump proponents who were prepared to accept millions of dollars in illegal donations from what they believed to be foreign backers.
The senior figures came up with an elaborate method of getting the funds cleared by pushing them through firms that only accept funds for charitable reasons. Using these organisations known as a 501(c)(4) theyve avoided scrutiny of who has donated to the campaign.
It raises questions over whom exactly the Trump campaign is getting its donations from.

This is why I said "from the Clinton campaign".
I would also like to see the US have a friendly relationship with Morocco (and, indeed, as many countries as possible), but there's a difference between that and corrupt dealings one which, admittedly, comes close to being academic in the dubious world of international relations.

| Morocco was the first country to recognize the USA, they've got the longest friendly relationship with the USA of anyone. |

Correct weight. They also have played an instrumental role in peace between Egypt & Israel back in the 1970's.

And the majority of people especially in rural areas are very poor and lack basic facilities - maybe the King could have given his people 12 million rather than give it to the corrupt Clintons!

True, but you can't have a Kingdom in Africa without poor people, besides they didn't vote for him.
