whats to watch. a bunch of un-empathetic sycophants pretending to have a platform or relevance to an audience already “not votin for a lib”
It was even worse than you’re imagining.
So in other words, lower than the ones in 2019?
[…] lowest viewership since 2015
Wouldn’t there have only been one other debate since then…? That’s rather misleading.
lowest ratings since the first one a little bit ago.
Is the article only looking at presidential primary debates, or all Republican primary debates?
Who wants to watch a bunch of mentally ill psychopaths talk over each other? I sure don’t.
Wasn’t Jersey shore insanely popular?
They were running their mouths not trying to run the country.
To the most of the world, they are “mentally ill psychopaths”, but to their rabid supporters, they can do no wrong. They will still watch them, cheer them on, and support them and vote for them…
That’s the thing, though. They don’t actually have rabid supporters. Trump does, and they want his supporters to support them.
That’s why no one is interested in watching their debates. The people who actually care about debates aren’t interested in their nonsense, and the ones whose vote they are courting are just waiting for Trump to give them the Go signal.
Yup I’ve looked at conservative spaces online and it’s all still Trump Trump Trump! I was honestly pretty surprised that they don’t want to try anyone else considering how much everyone else hates Trump but that’s just how out of touch they are I guess.
For a significant portion of them, I think everyone else hating him is a feature

In their eyes, that’s one of his best features. The Republican party’s singular common goal these days is to be as contrarian as possible, and the angrier everyone else is with them, the better they figure they’re doing.
If trump isn’t in the debate it’s not worth watching to be honest.
Oddly enough it’s still not worth it if he’s there. I’ve seen the exact same scene every time I flush after dropping a deuce. Adding an unflushable nugget to the bowl doesn’t change much.
What a surprise? Why would anyone watch when the front runner isint even going to be there.
Why would you want to watch? They’re all a bunch of losers and one worse than the next. They’re the current failures that rose to the top.
None have compelling arguments or solutions and are only there to shitsling each other. Even monkeys at the zoo are smarter.
“Are you not entertained?”
We know what their platform is. Seize control, force their many minority views on everyone and thing. Period.
Well, obviously. Look at R polling. Trump is the clear incumbent and he’s not even on it. The clowns on the TV can pretend that they’re holier than him for showing up, but they’re irrelevant. And the D’s don’t give a shit, they’re preparing for the inevitable: running against Trump.
A few years ago, when the D candidate field was packed full to the brim, emulating the hilarious R landscape 4 years before, I thought american politics couldn’t be more of a circus. This Republican field of nobody’s with no chance going through the motions pretending there’s legitimacy in the TV media charade is even worse. At this point it’s not funny, it’s just sad, there’s not even entertainment value in watching it anymore.
They are all running for VP candidate but are too dumb to realize it.
I highly doubt Amy of them gets the VP slot on the R ballot in the general.
They’re well aware of it, it’s why they’re not really badmouthing Trump.
