Donald Trump Snags 45.6M For 1st State Of The Union; Behind Obama, W & Bubba – Update

Comparison may actually be where the rub gets a bit raw for Trump, especially in terms of his immediate predecessors. Barack Obama had just more than 48 million total viewers for his first SOTU in 2010 on 11 outlets, and nearly 52 million watched George W. Bush’s post-9/11 first SOTU in 2002 on eight outlets. Adding to the con column, Trump did not beat the 45.8 million who tuned in for Bill Clinton’s first SOTU on ABC, NBC, CBS and CNN in 1994.

Which means Trump’s initial SOTU, the third longest in history, is now also the least watched address in nearly a quarter of a century.

tulc(MAGA by no one watching him?)

Maybe he should have played that theme song from his old reality TV show 1st, and that would have drawn more folks in for his new reality TV show.

We have been living in the midst of a never-ending political campaign in recent years, so one more speech may have lost some of its appeal.

In addition, this one was preceded by a lot of talk about how the democrats were going to protest the president's remarks, no matter what they might turn out to be.

The public is weary of bad behavior, staged outrage, and endless protesting against the decision of the voters last November.

I'm assuming the irony of the bolded portion above is pretty much lost on most people.

Well it sure doesn't help that Trump began campaigning for 2020 while still in 2016, on account of his ego needing to be fed.

In addition, this one was preceded by a lot of talk about how the democrats were going to protest the president's remarks, no matter what they might turn out to be.

I reckon if you take a look back through history Republicans have protested when the Dem. POTUS gave the SOTU and vice versa.

The decision of the voters didn't lead to Trump being in office. Millions more voters chose his opponent. The EC is why he's in office.
