No, you didn't understand his tweet. (Perhaps you deliberately misunderstood his tweet?)

There is a difference between "reporting on" something, which is what you said --

and treating something as being of "apocalyptic importance," which is what he said.

For context, this was after the Nuclear button tweet by Trump, so may have had to do with that some? Don’t know if the correlation is the causation, just observing.

He shows himself to be the partisan tool and fraud that he is. Before, he could at least try to claim some semblance of neutrality and being just about "the stats."

I thought everyone was over him after disastrous polling of 2016 by most pollsters.

I thought Nate Silver was still hiding under his desk after his disastrous predictions in the 2016 Elections.
Glad to see he is OK.

The e-mails were always a overblown story of little significance. Silver is right, the e-mail story was blown all out of proportion.

What emails, the one that were lost, the ones that didn't exist, the ones that were said to not include classified information, the emails that did include classified information, the ones that were destroyed, the ones the committee is still waiting for?


nothing there to rouse anyone's curiosity or speculation.
