NEW YORK - An estimated 35.3 million people saw President Donald Trump and Democratic leaders speak to the nation on border security and the partial government shutdown.
That's about 10 million fewer viewers than Trump had for his 2018 State of the Union address. The Nielsen company said Wednesday it was similar to President Barack Obama's 2014 presidential address on fighting the Islamic state, which was seen by 34 million people.

Assuming the ‘Resistance’ boycotted the speech, those aren’t bad numbers.

How many people agree with Trump?

"...35M people watched the President Trump speech..."
My cable television provider did not even have it listed in that slot.
I therefore had to navigate to “likely” channels that would carry it.

For us working stiffs, the speech was simply too late at night - 630-7 bed time.

That’s the important thing, not how many watched his address. I do think a lot of people are boycotting the media in disgust including fox.

Does that include FB, Youtube, Twitter and all news sites? Because I expect it was closed to 50 million.

Watched online and so did plenty of others, and they know it.
Further, you don’t have to catch things live anymore.
You can always find it later.
