Well,
I tried to tell them it’s time to shut down his public appearances, didn’t I?
Joe Biden decided to do a “virtual happy hour” yesterday, in which the almost 80 year old man who’s showing signs of dementia was supposed to really connect with the young folk. There were some cringe moments, because there’s always cringe moments when Biden speaks, but there was another more overarching laughable moment as well.
Namely, that he only garnered 2800 simultaneous viewers to the event

You can just feel the excitement
Let’s also note that the above CBS “reporter” is describing that pitiful viewership as “lit” because journalism and stuff. You could throw up a YouTube video watching paint dry and probably garner more than 2800 views. This is a major presidential candidate we are talking about.
So how was this low attended “round table” received by those who did watch it? Not very well.
Who disables comments on a campaign event stream? Isn’t interaction and participation the entire point? But Biden isn’t a regular candidate. He’s really just this bad at campaigning, as evidenced by this flub during the event.

We are going to find out in November whether having the excitement levels of a hot dog eating contest matter or not, because Biden’s inability to bring any spark to the table is obvious. I mean, how is it even possible that a guy with 4.5M followers on Twitter can’t get more than 2800 viewers for a live stream?
Perhaps a mountain of mainstream media fluffing and orange man bad reporting will make up for it? I’m skeptical though, especially given the fact that Biden can’t go two sentences without losing his train of thought or making a gaffes.
Just compare this to Trumps daily pressers...almost compares to Monday night football numbers!! At least the LSM viewers numbers are up...for once.
The Ratings for Trump’s Wuhan Virus Pressers Are Absolutely Mind-Blowing

Trump’s Wuhan virus pressers have formed the center of the news cycle for weeks now, with them providing plenty of political fodder.
For their part, the media have been absolutely terrible, asking ridiculous questions (someone actually asked Trump “how many deaths are acceptable to you” yesterday) and misleading the public about what’s happening. It’s safe to say more time has been spent on their own hand wringing that getting out vital information.
Regardless, if the ratings for these briefings are any indication, people aren’t looking to The New York Times for their information. Instead, they are watching it themselves, forming audience sizes rivaling Monday Night Football.
This per the
New York Post.
President Trump’s daily White House coronavirus briefings are a ratings hit.
The president, who has taken the lead in the task force’s daily updates to the nation, has attracted an average audience of about 8.5 million viewers on cable news — about the number of viewers who watched the season finale of “The Bachelor,” The New York Times reported on Wednesday, citing Nielsen numbers.
And as the outbreak continues to surge across the country and more Americans abide by shelter-in-place orders in a number of states, the viewership is increasing.
Monday’s briefing drew 12.2 million people on CNN, MSNBC and Fox News, ratings similar to those of “Monday Night Football.”
Compare that to Joe Biden’s last event, where
he drew just 2800 viewers to his live stream.
To coin a Trump term, the ratings for his pressers are absolutely “yuge.” They also dwarf the primetime ratings of outlets like CNN, who fancy themselves the gateway of information. Trump is successfully circumventing them, getting his message directly to the people. That’s exactly why CNN, NBC, and others are now saying they won’t show his pressers anymore. It’s not because they are worried about supposed “lies” being told as they claim. No, it’s because they are so highly effective and they want to handicap the President during a crisis for political reasons.
That’s further evidenced by Trump’s rising approval ratings, with RCP now showing him at the highest approval rating average of his entire presidency. The American people are apparently smarter than the media believe they are and it’s freaking
them out.
Ol' Joe with his 2800 viewer for his "virtual happy hour." Trumps daily pressers 8.5 million...Houston we have a problem!!
