Summary
Donald Trump’s second inauguration drew an estimated 24.6 million television viewers, the lowest audience for a presidential inauguration since Barack Obama’s second in 2013.
Viewership declined compared to Joe Biden’s 2021 inauguration (33.8 million) and Trump’s first in 2017 (30.6 million).
Fox News led coverage, averaging 10.3 million viewers during the swearing-in and speech, while other networks saw smaller audiences.
I saw that shit on Disney plus.
Immediately cancelled my sub.
Kids can have Bluey from the warships on the ocean 🦜☠️.
I’d like to support content creators. They work hard, deliver their dream. And early on, a large delivery network is desirable! But if that provider enshitifies beyond my threshold, they are dead to me.
So set sail!
I saw that shit on Disney plus.
What, and I mean this will all my soul, the actual fuck?
I don’t give a single wet shit who the president is, why in the chocolate covered fuck is a streaming media content platform pushing that shit? Really glad I never gave them any money, and the subscription we had always a friend’s.
Anyone else not only not watch, but actively avoided any possibility of even catching a glimpse of it?
If I hear his droning groggly voice going off about some fake shit, I usually snap and tell whoever to shut that shit off. It’s unbearable. The guy sounds how I imagine anyone would after a 40+ years of Quarter Pounders and Diet Coke, he’s probably way over his fair share in carbon emissions from diet alone.
I thought I could tolerate reading quotes of him but it’s a mess every time. Whatever schools he attended failed him greatly.
I feel like I’m being mansplained to by the stupidest man in existence. Which works since apparently Trump’s executive order makes me a woman now.
No, it makes you non-binary. We’re neither male nor female at conception.
LALALALALA!! I know I have to listen to journalist people summarize the shit he’s done because it’s the reality we need to oppose. But nobody who isn’t paid for it should have to listen to that mosquito whine.
The fact that it’s streaming on Disney+, while not surprising, is disgusting.
I doubt even that many watched.
I actually unplugged the TVs in the gym
My local gym had all the tvs near the treadmills set to various political news entertainment stations (fox, CNN, etc.).
I typically sat in front of fox and let the ragebait fuel my running. It’s interesting how emotions can make you exercise better.
