State of the Union Address

It was OK. A lot of feelgood sentiment and rah-rah, but that's what SOTU addresses are now so not exactly a surprise. There were a half dozen weird moments but nothing out of the ordinary for Biden.
 
A remarkable speech tonight from our President. It's gratifying to finally have this country moving in the right direction again.

👍👍👍👍👍
Feels excellent to have a common sense, non-criminal, adult speaking president who's looking out for the County's best interests! He also wants us to catch up to other nations in technology and education.

Not sure where he’s pulling numbers from since there are no official numbers out yet. Certainly they will be lower than Trump who had all time record ratings. But they won’t be 11 million.

edit: Nielson released a 26.9 million estimate this afternoon actually.
Didn’t seem to be inline with pulling 78 million votes just a few months ago. 26.9 million makes more sense even though it’s still out of line with the voting.

Oh brother. You still on team Kraken? I hope you didn’t donate.

Wouldn’t give money to that. But it’s not crazy to acknowledge that there are huge election security issues and to also believe the Democrat campaign personnel caught on video saying they exploited the holes regularly. It’s also not crazy to understand that investigations take time and the mad rush and craziness surrounding that probably blew any chance to find out if something like Stacey Abram’s ballot harvesting operation was on the up-and-up or not.

You could have just said yes. The 2016 State of the Union had 31 million viewers and that featured an eloquent speaker rather than a borderline dementia patient. I had no interest in watching either. Not sure why you expected huge ratings to see Biden try to recite rehearsed lines without stumbling.

it's the smallest TV audience ever for a SOTU address (since we tracked it starting in 93) for a president who received the most votes ever. You'd think some people would be interested in what he was saying. Not like he was shy by a few thousand, smallest by 10 million viewers.

The reason that Donald’s ratings were so high is because you only get three TV stations in the trailer camp parks. I don’t know why this is so damn hard to figure out.

He got the most votes ever due to mail in balloting increasing access and turnout. Not because he was more popular than Obama. Who got between 31 and 33 million viewers for his addresses. 31-27 is 4 million not 10 either. Biden is less of a spectacle than Trump and less of a public speaker than Obama. So the numbers are not at all surprising. But if you subscribe to krakens it won’t matter.
