800,000, whatever it is, it's unbelievable.

I couldn't believe it myself.

And it was the subject of articles all over the Internet.

I don't mean little blogs, I mean big Internet sites.

And it was the subject of an entire column in today's New York Times.

This was the tweet.

The news media in the West posed a far greater threat, oops, far greater danger,

to Western civilization than Russia does.

Again, the news media in the West posed a far greater danger to Western civilization than Russia does.

I never send out stuff, I never write stuff to be provocative.

I admit that some of it is, but I never have that as an intent.

People said, oh, well, maybe he was being hyperbolic to make a point.

Nope, I literally believe what I wrote.

I would never have sent out something to so many people if I didn't fully believe it.

So I read all these attacks on me, not the usual ones cursing me out,

or that some guy wrote, I wipe off SH from the bottom of my shoes that are better than this guy, or something like that.

It was deep. The thing about that, though, that got me, because this stuff doesn't bother me, by the way.

In fact, the lower the response, the lower level of the response, the more I think I'm right.

Because if these are the people who think I'm wrong, I probably am right.

So they should know that, that just writing FU, or a European piece of this, or a piece of that,

just reinforces my belief that I'm probably right.

I don't know for certain that I am.
