More people watched Biden on ABC than Trump on NBC, MSNBC and CNBC

Joe Biden's town hall on ABC averaged 13.9 million viewers on Thursday night, easily surpassing the Nielsen ratings for President Trump's town hall on NBC. That alone was a result virtually no one in the TV business expected. And that's not even the most surprising part.

The Trump town hall was simulcast by two of NBC's cable channels, MSNBC and CNBC, but even when those channels are included in the total, Biden -- on only one network -- still prevailed.

He has to be fuming.

LOLOLOL

 

[PlanetSmasher]

Ha. Fuck him.

Get rekt

 

[Deleted member 24079]

I mean, that's a good slice of the nation who want a calm and normal town hall. Good show Biden

 

[Rocketz]

Now this is good.

Dude would be punching holes in the White House walls if they weren't made of steel.

 

[Isilia]

It's the little things that make you happy.

 

[Sydle]

So he's is losing in all the polls and in TV ratings. This is a great formula to make him more unhinged going into the final debate.

But Trump was also on MSNC and CNBC and Telemundo.

 

[Dr.Horrible]

Awesome

 

[rokkerkory]

But best numbers

 

[SolidSnakeBoy]

I thought the Trump one was on more than one network though....where are those numbers?

 

[LakeEarth]

Awesome. I grew tired of the constant trainwreck that is Trump, and it looks like I'm not alone.

 

[game-biz]

Ok, this makes me laugh. i did not expect this lol.

The obsession with ratings, ignoring the fact that he's a president, is the most out-of-touch Boomer shit. I know like maybe two people under 40 that actually have some form of cable.

On the other hand, this is literally the only thing he cares about so hopefully this stings, though he'll probably just source his info somewhere else that provides the numbers he wants.

 

[King Kingo]

That's a 2.3 million difference, a telling sign that Trump just isn't Presidential material for the general public anymore.

 

[DrEvil]

I can see the tweets now.
"NOBODY WATCHES FAILING "NATIONAL" NETWORK NBC, I GAVE THEM THE MOST BIGLY RATINGS ALL YEAR AND THEY STILL COULDNT BEAT FAKE NEWS ABC! Sad!"

 

[Bedlam]

Haha, all the other shit circulating about the orange idiot out there is magnitudes worse but this will definitely get to him. The whiny bitch won't sleep for days. :D

 

[Bedameister]

Sad.

 

[PeskyToaster]

I guess people really don't want to tune into a train wreck when they are also on the train.

 

[Koukalaka]

The one reason he probably did this and it failed. Glorious.

Who cares? Even if he ends up overtaking Biden the narrative has already been written. People don't look at ratings 5 days later. Actual ratings often change, but the things that stick are the initial overnights.

Yeah, he's probably going to say it is fake news and that the ratings were rigged somehow.

 

[Brinbe]

Hahahahahahaha

I know Trump's ego will take a massive hit because of this news, because he's a vain piece of shit and that brings me immeasurable joy.

 

[Falore]

I honestly bet Donald Dick was extremely furious on his entire trip home after the townhall. He probably was screaming about how a woman had the nerve to stand up to him.

Also Biden seemed to straight up eradicate trump n youtube 'ratings' as well pulling in numbers at a rate of 3 to 1 over Donald from the official streamsI saw lastnight.

 

[reKon]

LMAOOOOO

Spoiler

It's fake news to Trump.

 

[xaosslug]

it's like I said, ABC has been leading in the ratings w/ presidential coverage/events all this time. Trump wasn't gonna turn that around. He's a fool and fell into his own trap. lol

 

[Deleted member 6263]

Not final ratings but you just know that this will piss off Big T.

Correct. Those cable ratings will be coming in later today with the final ratings for everything except streaming. These are preliminary ratings and show roughly how TV shows did the night before. Expect the numbers to go slightly up for everything all around.

 

[Protein]

This guy can't catch a break. It's almost sad if it wasn't so funny.

 

[Deleted member 7082]

I'm honestly shocked more people didn't watch Trump's town hall to see what dumb shit he does. Thats what I did.

 

[Mass Effect]

S A D !

 

[THEVOID]

That's actually surprising because everyone loves to see a car crash. That's awesome!

 

[Chie Satonaka]

fucking lmao.

 

[Walter White Walker]

We did it!
Now let's never refer to that mindless fuck as "Big T" ever again, shall we?

 

[Dark Knight]

Ok, this makes me laugh. i did not expect this lol.

I think at this point, to normal people, the spectacle is old and nobody is optionally choosing to watch Trump lol. Besides his mouth breathing supporters of course.

Just FYI and super nitpicky but both ABC and NBC are over-the-air broadcasts.

 

[rusty chrome]

NBC needs to disappear.

 

[Rocket Man]

How do the streaming numbers look?

 

[Weebos]

RATINGS! VOTE!

He'll claim that "online views" made him have millions more, then capitalize some short declaration.

I know on YouTube Biden was like double Trump viewership.

Trump will probably have slightly higher ratings overall, but if you need FOUR channels to barely win the ratings battle against a single network, you really didn't win.
