Devin Nunes, that is. From The NY Times:
“TV ratings are way down, way down,” Mr. Nunes, the ranking Republican on the House Intelligence Committee, declared — on live television — to a pair of witnesses seated before him in Congress. “Whatever drug deal the Democrats are cooking up from the dais, the American people aren’t buying it.”

Mr. Nunes was wrong.

In fact, America’s impeachment drama, titled “Days of Our Impeachment” on a recent “Saturday Night Live,” is drawing “Monday Night Football”-level viewership. On some days, its ratings have topped popular procedurals like “NCIS.”

After five full days of hearings across two weeks, the average live TV viewership for impeachment has been roughly 12 million people, according to Nielsen. Ratings have dipped slightly from a peak on Day 1, Nov. 13, which drew an audience of 13.1 million, but the drop-off is less than what many sitcoms see after a season premiere."
Now let's see what impact it has on American opinion...

Donnie Jr. got more . . . .

viewers from here appearance on the View to pimp his book than any day of the impeachment. What does THAT say about voter interest in this charade?

If that's true than why did the RNC need to spend nearly $100K to buy Donnie's ghost-written book?

Nice subject change. You are . . . .

the absolute best at deflection when you are beaten. What do book sales have to do with viewership on "The View?"

But to answer your unrelated question, I heard they will be used for Christmas gifts to RNC workers. That's a pretty nice gesture on he part of the RNC. Many low-level workers would not be able to justify spending their own money on the book, but if its a gift, I'm sure they will appreciate it. In fact, maybe that is something I should consider for my own employees this year.

Since you are our resident expert on "subject change," deflection and disinformation,

I take that as a high compliment and offer in return the early lead in this week's scrum for the Pot/Kettle/Black Award.
PS: Your answer is: book sales have EVERYTHING to do with viewership on "The View," that's what Don, Jr. was DOING there to begin with, flogging his fake book. Now please go and bone up on "2+2=4."

But how is the shampeachment going with independents?

Jake, SNL is not real life.

Just remember the last time dems trusted Drunk Nancy as SOTH. They lost 63 net seats in 2010. The largest flip since 1938 (the year you lost your virginity).

Heehaw.

If you are talking about . . . .

The Nunez Russian collusion investigation, I believe he came to the same conclusion as Mueller: No indictable crimes by Americans. So what exactly is your point with this Liberal whine?

More misdirection . . .

Are you now peddling the absurd notion that the RNC bought a bunch of Donnie Jr.'s books because he was on the View? You couldn't even sell that one to Laffy, and he'll buy ANYTHING that is even remotely anti-Trump, no matter how ridiculous.

Your reading comprehension is, as always, poor.

The RNC bought the books to move Donnie's book up the best-seller list, the SAME reason he went on "The View," to flog books. So they were both doing the SAME THING.
More misdirection.

"Heehaw?" Dev brays like a jackass again.

Now see if you can find "independents" in my post. All I said was Nunez lied about the ratings. Which he did. End of story. Now let's see why he made that shady trip to dig up dirt on Biden. Remember the last time he got caught with his hand in the cookie jar and had to recuse himself?

How many times do you typically . . .

change horses in the middle of the stream? If you keep adding more piecemeal, we may eventually get to a place we agree, but more likely, anyone who cares is not reading this thread once you have moved the goalposts two or three times.

Please try re-reading this branch.

Perhaps then maybe you'll understand why your right to claim "moving the goalposts" has been revoked.
Shame on you.
