The Rules

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

In other words, he really does believe his opinion matters that much.

It indicates he wants it to, but its cognitive dissonance at best. If people did care about his opinion, he wouldn't have had to put his thumb on the scale tilting the traffic to artificially point to his posts. People are leaving Twitter anyway, which has to prove it even further people don't want to hear from him.
