I was planning to watch the president but I went to the local Tampa Bay NBC channel and all they had was a local Florida political discussion. I have since discovered that NBC in Tampa Bay and many other cities around the country put Trump on CNBC and MSNBC so it would not be found, I’m certain this explains the difference in ratings. These bastages can’t even be honest about their television listings. Bastiges

This means that SOME MAJOR areas did NOT show Trump's town hall on NBC, Channel 4. ATT did NOT carry or show this event on Channel 4..

In some areas, there was confusion as to what channel Trump's event would be shown on. To my knowledge, Biden's event was shown EVERYWHERE in the U.S. on ABC, Channel 7.

There you have it. Part of the overall plot to SUPPRESS Trump's ratings.

And BTW, Savannah Guthrie was a total B*TCH who treated Trump with utmost DISRESPECT.

Everyone who watched Biden's event got to see that NOBODY asked him about Hunter or his many crimes.

I’m sure it was easier to listen to Stephie softball question Biden than it was to listen to that harridan harpy shrilly debate and interrupt DJT - I know I could only take a few minutes before moving on. So no surprise Biden’s ratings were higher

Most likely, the viewers tuned in to ABC to see how many gaffes Biden would produce. Viewers also tuned-in to see if Biden would finally answer the question about court-packing. They also wanted to see if Biden would answer questions about the Hunter/Burisma corrupt deals enabled by his father, Joe. Viewers were left disappointed by a campaign event, conducted by the left-wing StepOnAllOfUs and ABC.

You obviously have much more faith in the American voter than I do...

Good for you.

I prefer to prepare for the worst and I will continue.

Being rude to me won’t elect Trump.

I get to hear POTUS at will (every day and multiple times a day). Former VP Biden is finally on TV answering planned questions with answers on a prompter. No wonder some people tuned in.
I don’t watch TV but I followed the POTUS’ town hall on line.

Listen, B*TCH.

YOU do not control this site. YOU are not the boss here. I will exercise my right to speak anywhere, anytime.

It’s not “negativity” it’s called preparing. Do you think there will NEVER be another Demonicrat president???

Don’t try to force your echo chamber empty brain cavity on everyone else.

And you probably know what you can do with your rude snark. Loser :)

Well, personally I was hoping for , you know, that thing, foaming at the mouth, shouting at the sky, with some you lying dog faced pony soldier barking on all fours, and for the finale slipping out of his soiled Depends to use as a face mask, sniffing all the while.

Was that too much to hope for?

Well of course byeDUHn drew more viewers. Like 1,500-1 right? Just like the swelling ranks at his gatherings. Let’s see how few folks turn up to see PDJT on Sunday in Carson City NV. Versus how many folks line up outside joe’s basement. And, is carmela hVrris out of the picture for 2 weeks? CV19 related no doubt. Not because she’s insufferable and unlikable.

Trumps town hall was not televise live on my local tv station in Oregon except Biden. You have to go to the NBC Cable channel to watch it. Trumps town hall was recorded and aired later on at night.

Or people watched all of Trump’s Town Hall and then switched over to Biden’s.

Also there are online streaming viewers

They advertised it for NBC and then switched it just before the showing to MSNBC. More dirty tricks.

Really??

That’s a good number. Trump nearly doubled Biden on streaming.

A lot of people don’t watch network TV anymore, so there’s that.
