A conservative filmmaker says his latest work, which is described as “a scathing indictment” of Hillary Clinton, could help Donald Trump’s campaign. Too bad the campaign is failing to recognize the film, he says.

Our movie [‘Hillary’s America: The Secret History of the Democratic Party’] could help Trump,” Dinesh D’Souza told KIRO Radio’s Jason Rantz. “But it’s part of the extreme stupidity of the Republicans that even though … you know, if I was Michael Moore and I made a movie, the whole Democratic Party would get behind me. But here we are, pushing this movie and we haven’t heard a whisper from the [Republican National Convention] or the Trump campaign.”

Rantz asked the obvious follow-up: Why is that?

“I think it’s because these people are morons,” D’Souza responded. “Even though they’re supposed to be experts, they go around with their nametags … they don’t know what’s going on — half of them.”
