Michael Moore on millennials: Vote your conscience – UpFront

With only a few days left, voters will decide which way the United States presidential election will go – and the margin separating Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump is slim.

In an interview with UpFront, Michael Moore, director of the film Michael Moore in Trumpland, warns young voters not to “compromise” and to “vote the way you think you should vote”.

“I can already see the set-up happening here with some Democrats, where they’re getting ready to blame the millennials if this thing goes south,” says Moore. “We over 35, need to … try to put our finger in this dam that’s about ready to burst. That’s our job, that’s not the job of a 19-year-old.”

In this Web Extra, documentary filmmaker and activist Michael Moore explains to Mehdi Hasan what he would tell a young voter in the United States.
