I don't see the point in it either, but that doesn't mean there isn't one.

We're not the target market for twitter comments, and we are informed enough to know that he couldn't do this even if he wanted to, we are aware enough to know that the lame duck period is pretty long as it is... and we're talking two established candidates who already have or know whom they want for the major positions... and we are mistrusting enough of the media to look at what he actually says versus what is reported that he says.

This one isn't important enough for me to even look at, but what I mean is the difference between him saying in response to concerns about getting a safe, fair election 'maybe we (meaning as a nation, collectively) should look at postponing it' for a few weeks so that we can address those concerns.... and him saying 'i have the emergency authority to cancel the election, I'm staying'.

People like us are more likely to be upset at the media, who is supposed to be neutral and report 'news' for knowingly misrepresenting him to CREATE news/sell newspapers rather than reporting it

Just a thought
