Biden's speech drew in less than 75% of the viewership former President Donald Trump's speech congressional drew.

Someone doesn't understand percentages.

11.6 million watched Biden's address

37.2 million for Trump in 2020

( 11.6 / 37.2 ) * 100 = 31.2%

Biden drew only 31% of Trump's smallest audience. Not 75%.

48 million was probably the number used. It would have been Trump’s first versus Biden’s first.

Probably CBS, they had a poll with 85% liking the speech, but they over sampled Democrats by about 85% more.

I think their problem is English. It was about a 75% decline from Trump's second SOTU.
