it's Michael Moore, from 'Trumpland':

in Moore’s unique case, the film’s formal innovations in its cinema of political theater serve as a means to a pro-Hillary end. A dyed-in-the-wool leftist and staunch critic of Western capitalism, Moore shrewdly uses his anti-corporate bona fides as grounds on which to proclaim himself even more sane and measured in his support of Clinton, who’s taken much heat from right and left-wing populists for her coziness with Wall Street. After delivering a diatribe of weighty emotionality and introspection on Hillary’s journey from “shit-kickin’ feminist babe” to party line-towing career politician, Moore even pivots to address immovable Hillary haters by framing their vote for her as a civic duty to ensure the country’s survival. Slam the button in the ballot box next to her name and go right on hating her, he pleads, so long as you don’t use your vote as an “anger management tool.”
