    Cool and all but the best way to troll someone is not to tell them ahead of time.

      No, the best way to troll someone is to tell them what you’re going to do, make it clear they can’t do anything to stop you or change your mind, and then follow through.

      This is being done in an extremely intentional fashion.

      It’s also underlining the value of freedom of speech, which I am also sure is quite intentional.

      The bigger point is media attention to bring his dodge of a 2nd debate back into memory. Telling it ahead of time gives you twice the coverage on it: news that you’re going to do it and coverage after the fact once you have done it

      Plus you’ll get more people filming and looking out for the plane too

      Nah, that’s the best part. Knowing him, he won’t be able to avoid watching it now.

      they’re not trying to scare him. they announce it because they know he won’t be able to not look at it.
