No one cares. This has backfired on the Democrats. No one is clamoring for Trumps removal from office.
Their case is underwhelming, indeed.
Find it hard to believe that many people cared enough to watch.
A couple hundred supporters of the President and the rest of the watchers were leftwing kooks and freeloaders. It was a work day. Those who support the President had to work.
If this was a legitimate imprachment the numbers would be double or more.
I’m a huge Trump supporter but I have not watched one second of this fraudulent “trial”.
Thats true... this is the impeachment trial no one wanted. Thanks to Democrat hatred of Trump, were stuck with it.
Hmmm. About 10,999,999 more than I expected.
terrible numbers and no way to know how many mute buttons were worn out turning POSchitf and Nonads voices off.
11 million out of 350 million OMG these people are insane they call that substantial LOL, LOL, LOL!!!
........ My guess is that when it's time for the Presidents Defense Team to reveal their case .... The Nets will suddenly become disinterested and not cover the hearing. Thus, only one side of the argument will be heard by the public.
.
Despite the numbers in the millions....how many did what I did....5 minutes.
And having the TV on doesn't mean you're watching it. I use mine for white noise.
I like the Fox coverage. Side-by-side picture - the commentators chatting while the Senate audio is completely muted. That works out. It also allows the viewers to watch the live, yet muted, Senate action while a Depends ad airs. Either way, Schiffty is silent. Very enjoyable.
They are just tuning out the Rats, when the defense comes on the numbers will go up.
I even got the gym to turn off 6 of the 7 channels that were airing it on their TVs.
I didnt make it political, I just said... isnt one enough?
I got to watch soccer reruns instead.
11 million? The TV Morning shows on ABC/CBS/NBC generate that many view. it was on everywhere and they only drew 11 million for this supposedly hugely important National crisis the Democrats are claiming this is?
To put this number in perspective the first democrat debate drew 10.7 million, so you know whos watching this crap. Schiffty is preaching to the choir. The first Republican debate with Trump drew 24 million. I havent watched one minute but will watch the defense starting Saturday.
Maybe someone can answer this?
I have a cable box, (verizon fios) but I never actually turn the box off so that whatever channel I am on when I turn the tv off ... that same channel is still on even if it’s not being watched.
Now, how is That figured into the viewer count?
I heard on the news that the dem trial will continue till Saturday morning and after that, Trump lawyers take over.
Maybe the news people know that this dem trial is a failure to get people's attention and don't want for people to tune in to watch Trump Lawyers?
Color me unimpressed.
.. with CNN bringing up the rear
They forgot C-Span 2, RSBN & Breitbart.
