Michael Moore has urged former first lady of the United States, Michelle Obama to run for president, predicting she would “crush” Donald Trump in 2020.
His call comes in the wake of the Democrats presidential aspirants Debates on Wednesday, he suggested that the former first lady would be the ideal choice for Democrats.
He said only a “street fighter” with the ability to “crush” Mr Trump could have a successful run for the White House.
“And frankly, I think there’s a person that could do this, if the election were held today, there is one person that would crush Trump. And she hasn’t announced yet. And her last name rhymes with Obama.”
He added: “In fact, it is Obama. Michelle Obama. Everybody watching this right now knows she is a beloved American and she would go in there and she would beat him.
“She would beat him in the debates, he wouldn’t be able to bully her, he wouldn’t be able to nickname her and she is beloved.”
Ms Obama has previously said she didn’t want to run for president and that unlike her husband, she doesn’t have a passion for politics.
