Liberal filmmaker Michael Moore says Americans still support President Trump despite issues with his administration because Democrats haven’t offered them an alternative.

Speaking on "Morning Joe" on Monday, Moore slammed Democrats for not “running the right people” in local elections and the upcoming 2018 midterms.

“The Democrats have yet to offer what the alternative is,” Moore said. “Like, ‘we’re going to take the House back’ — and really? Where are all of those great candidates for next year?”

The filmmaker, whose one-man show about Trump is in previews on Broadway, said that the U.S. is in line with the liberal values promoted by Democrats because the party has won the popular vote during six of the past seven presidential elections, but that they’re having trouble running candidates who can share those values.

He added that Democrats need to stop running to attract moderate voters but instead focus on liberal issues that earn them votes, saying it “comes down to running the right people.”

“Find the beloved American in your district and run that person that can win,” Moore said. “We need to start running people who can win and who are beloved by the American people and who understand how to talk to the American people.”

Moore has been an outspoken critic of Trump, warning Democrats in 2016 that he would win the election. In addition to his one-man anti-Trump show, he is also producing an anti-Trump documentary called "Fahrenheit 11/9," referencing the day after Trump was elected.
