Michael Moore Appeals to GOP Electors: Go Rogue and I Will Pay Your State Fine

Can you imagine the outcry, riots, and vandalism if someone on the right had done this for Trump? 

Crickets on the left. 

 

Filmmaker and author Michael Moore has made an offer to Republican members of the Electoral College: If any electors do not vote for Donald Trump — violating their pledge — and their state is one that imposes a fine for such a violation, Moore will pay it.

In an open letter Sunday addressed to Republican electors, Moore wrote on his Facebook page, “Some states have made it ‘illegal’ for you to vote any other way than for Trump. If you don’t vote for him, your state will fine you … So here’s my offer to you: I obviously can’t and won’t give you money to vote tomorrow, but if you do vote your conscience and you are punished for it, I will personally step up pay your fine which is my legal right to do.”

Moore pleads with GOP electors in his open letter to go rogue, writing, “I am writing you not as a card-carrying Democrat (I’m not) who voted for Hillary [Clinton] (I did), but simply because I am an American who, like you, deeply loves this country and its people … I am not going to ask you to vote for the person who got the most votes (although I will not be upset should you chose to side with the majority of your fellow Americans and do so!). No, I’m simply asking you to vote your conscience and PLEASE do not put our nation in danger by choosing Donald J. Trump.”
