https://www.mediaite.com/tv/trumps-60-minutes-ratings-absolutely-tank-from-last-interview/President Donald Trumps ratings are hitting new lows his raucous sit-down with Lesley Stahl for 60 Minutes, which aired Sunday night, notched 11.3 million total viewers and 1.8 in the 18-49 demo.
Per Deadline, thats a 47% dive in the demo and 43% in total viewers since Trumps last 60 Minutes interview, which aired just after his 2016 election win.
Then-president elect Trump saw monster ratings for the interview, notching 20 million total viewers and 3.4 in the demo.
Trumps latest 60 Minutes interview comes at the end of a weeklong media blitz, including several hits on Fox News and various other interviews. The interview, thanks to Stahls impressive questioning, was thrilling, and benefitted from an NFL ratings lead-in (unlike his last 60 Minutes interview).
Trumps frenetic and at times contentious sit down with Stahl covered everything from his controversial border policy to his views on climate change, Saudi Arabia, the Russia investigation, the media, Kim Jong Un, Vladimir Putin, his mockery of Christine Blasey Ford, etc, etc.
As Deadline notes, Trumps interview is even down from 60 Minutes most recent broadcast benefiting from an NFL overrun, on September 30, which notched 13.5 million total viewers and 2.2 in the demo.

His incompetence and stupidity are off the charts. This was a new low even for this moron.

(19,204 posts)turns my stomach. I used to be able to look at him on TV if the sound was muted, but now I can't even stand that. Waves of nausea hit me at the sight of that ridiculous rat's nest of..........whatever it is, on the top of his head. His fake tan with the white eye cup lines around his eyes just scream, "juvenile egomaniac".
Can't, and won't watch or listen to him under any circumstances. I'll rely on someone from MSNBC to relate what the fucking fraud has to say. He's the most vile, repulsive "human" (I want to administer a DNA test on him myself) on the planet. Disgusting pig.

(11,885 posts)And those that put him on tv so much . I'll not watch 60 minutes anymore , and other programs that show him lying all the time. I've got better things to do then to watch this lying corrupt criminal promote his propaganda . Media needs to stop helping him do this. They're being complicit showing him lie to the American people on a daily basis.

(15,543 posts)I made a point to avoid it. republican misleader Dirty Donny* has an evil gift of stirring up anger and hate as he spews his lies. We see that in the body politic. Protect yourself. Do not indulge in listening to republican evil-magic oratory.
Like other honest people, I will not allow anyone to lie to my face repeatedly. No go.

A 60 Minutes insult Trump has since walked back.

I hold out hope that we will "free-market" the ever-living fuck out of Hate Radio and CONservative media, and send folks like Rush back to covering obituaries in Dumbfuckistan, 'Murika, and Hannity back to being a barely competent drywall hanger.
