45's Newsmax Interview on Tuesday Got Half as Many Viewers as a 'Chopped' Rerun

https://www.msn.com/en-us/tv/news/trumps-newsmax-interview-on-tuesday-got-half-as-many-viewers-as-a-chopped-rerun/ar-AAKurf1?li=BBnb7Kz


The TV audience for Donald Trump appears to be waning — at least based on the former president's Tuesday interview on Newsmax. The one-hour sit-down with Steve Cortes and Jenn Pellegrino averaged just 295,000 viewers, according to Nielsen Media Research data.

That's less than half the eyeballs for a repeat of Food Network's "Chopped," which pulled in 651,000 on average in the midst of a multi-hour marathon of the cooking competition in the 9 p.m. timeslot. And it's roughly a third of what Bravo scored for a new episode of "Real Housewives of New York."

Oh, and HGTV's "Unsellable Houses" aired a new episode that started at 9:01, pulling in 1.283 million total average viewers. That's more than four times the audience for Trump's sit-down with Cortes, a former top adviser on his 2020 re-election campaign who now co-hosts a primetime show for the right-wing Newsmax.

They really are like lemmings, only malicious ones who want to take the rest of us down with them.

that the weaker and dumber elements of society have latched on to. We had Great Awakenings, spiritualist insanity, even germ phobias when bacteria were publicized as disease causes.

And don't forget all that saucer mania taking over from haunted house searches...

We're getting over Trump. Getting over the damage he caused will be harder.

food, mopping floors, cleaning toilets or paint drying will be the rating winner against this treasonous bastard any day.

And this just in, per Media Matters reports "The Colic Baby Show" had 1.7m more viewers during the same time slot.

I don't watch TV anymore. I don't even know what's on. If it's not in syndication, I probably will never see it.

Getting old has its advantages.
