After throwing two impeachments and a Russia hoax at Donald Trump, Congressional Democrats’ latest political theater against the former president – produced by a former TV exec for prime time – is a ratings disaster.
Their unifying theory seems to be that Trump masterminded a rag-tag mob of (fed infiltrated) groups, which ‘stormed’ the capital (through doors that were opened for them), then sauntered into various parts of the Capital – some even engaging in mayhem, in an ‘attempt to subvert Democracy’ and, we suppose, topple the US government?
Congress was back to work two hours after the interruption (aka the darkest moment in American history).
In any event, ratings for the Democrats’ latest Trump takedown attempt aren’t exactly a success, relatively speaking, as just 20 million viewers tuned in for Thursday night’s ‘prime-time’ event, according to The Hill.
At CBS alone, last week’s episode of “Young Sheldon” got more views (3.86 million vs. 3.24 million), according to the Washington Free Beacon.
By contrast, an estimated 38 million people tuned in to Trump’s inauguration, 20 million watched Christine Blasey Ford’s testimony against Justice Brett Kavanaugh, and 38 million tuned in to Biden’s State of the Union Address in March.
On a typical day, around 9 million people watched former President Trump’s 2020 impeachment trial, and 13 million or so watched the second.
In short – nobody cares.
On Thursday, Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) slammed the trial as “a Hollywood paid political advertisement,” adding “they hired a producer to put this thing on.”
As Summit News notes:
Rubio also noted that Democrats have enshrined into law that if any protest like January 6th ever happens again at the Capitol “they’re going to put a fence up,” further asserting “They won’t do that for our country.”
Rubio pointed to the authoritarian power grab Democrats have presided over with January 6th as a pretext, noting “They still have metal detectors in the House chamber, so members have to go through them.”
Referring to destructive Black Lives Matter riots, Rubio said Democrats “will do all these extraordinary things and mobilise the National Guard, but if you’re among the hundreds of small businesses that got burned to the ground, the people that were killed, the people that were harassed, the people that suffered from that, well [they] don’t care about that, that [they’re] going to condone.”
“It doesn’t matter if you torched a police car, killed a security guard, that’s not as big a deal… and if you call out the National Guard or marshalls or anybody else, that’s nothing but the Gestapo, that’s their attitude,” Rubio urged.
“It reveals hypocrisy and the good news is that people see it for what it is, and that’s why they’re getting it handed to them all over the country,” the Senator declared.
Rubio tweeted out his comments made on Hannity, asking when the trial begins for the 2300 acts of looting and 600 acts of arson that were committed during the BLM riots.
Republicans noted Thursday as the show trial got underway that teleprompters were being used:
It’s all part of the show, folks…

Who cares what this pack of assholes does? Their M O is obvious. What else are they going to yack about? Baby formula? Inflation? The Afghanistan skedaddle? War with Russia? Hunter? If you saw all of it get some professional help.
French criminal Pres Macron recently said he does not believe in self defense. Canadian criminal Prime Minister Castreau more recently said you do not have a right to self defense in Canada. both were WEF Young Global Leaders. the string puller Dr. Evil of the WEF clearly is spreading this new talking point/ agenda.
Do you have links showing Macron and Turdo said these things?
Do you read anything other than TBP?

Still, isn’t 20 million a lot? It is only approximately six percent of current U.S. population, but more than enough to affect an election outcome by making a stolen election appear “too close to call”.
Tens of thousands of useful idiots marched in gun control rallies in cities all around the nation yesterday; the same useful idiots who buy the Jan 6 narrative lock, stock, and barrel.
Advertising works.
What color is this revolution anyway?
“What color is this revolution anyway?”,why rainbow of course!
No worries,the cat has it covered!
Those were all already far left voters. Nobody has been persuaded by these hearings. Nobody with any sense at all is even watching. The Dems & RINOS are preaching to the choir. Everybody hates them.
It a rainbow
Kinda reminds me of Charlton Heston’s kangaroo court trial in front of the orangutan wise apes in Planet of the Apes. Lez Cheney bears a striking resemblance to Dr. Zaius….
This goes right along with believing that there is such a thing as SADS…Sudden Adult Death Syndrome! Nuts! We are a nation of cattle if that’s true!👵🥴
