Lets not kid ourselves, he's not that upset about what Merlino said about Sonny, he's upset that he spoke well of Merlino, and Merelino responded by calling him a rat...
Every time someone exposes him, he responds and then says he doesn't care...
40 years later it still kills him that he was a snitch !!!
Michael's twisting in the wind and embarrassed to no end. Because no matter how he tries to spin it, most everyone who has any common sense understands that Michael was, and will forever be, a rat...
