This is the first time in history that an opposition party rebuttal had more viewers than a message by the President.
Combined overnight ratings of seven national networks:
9-9:15, including President Trump’s address to the nation: 28.1 rating / 45 share
9:15-9:30, including Pelosi/Schumer response: 29.3 rating / 47 share— Michael Mulvihill (@mulvihill79) January 9, 2019
This is pretty incredible. More people tuned in to watch Pelosi and Schumer than to watch Trump. https://t.co/9FxMjNyYZ7
