President Donald Trump delivered his 2020 State of the Union on Tuesday evening, and it was filled with dramatic moments.

From Democratic pushback to Republican chants of "four more years" to surprise reunions and medals of freedom, the typically solemn State of the Union took on the air of a reality television show.

Naturally, the former host of Celebrity Apprentice was right at home—but fewer Americans at home were watching.


The President's ratings fell by nearly a quarter, garnering around 37 million people over 12 networks—the fewest viewers of a Presidential address since former President Barack Obama's final State of the Union in 2016.

While many Americans likely tuned out from the sheer fatigue of an erratic news cycle, some formidable lawmakers announced that they would be boycotting the address.




It seems other Americans had the same idea.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, Fox News boasted the highest views of any cable news show that night, while MSNBC dropped to the lowest number of viewers.

If you think Trump's partisan acquittal in the Senate impeachment trial the following day was enough to console him, you haven't been paying to his tweets.

Trump, a former reality television star, frequently determines the worth of entities and people alike by how many people care to watch.





The President has tweeted about ratings over 300 times.

People began to note the massive drop in ratings from last year—and what it may mean for Trump.






What may be chilling, however, is what Trump will do to boost his viewership to what it was.

Trump Ripped After Going Off On Bonkers Rant About Room's Decor During Cabinet Meeting

During Tuesday's cabinet meeting while the press was in attendance, MAGA Republican President Donald Trump gave a rambling stream of consciousness speech that went all over the place before landing on paint versus gold leaf, leading people to again question the POTUS' mental acuity amid a notable cognitive decline.

In a disjointed monologue about the decor in the cabinet room, Trump said he stole a grandfather clock from Secretary of State Marco Rubio's office and chose a painting of James Polk because the frame matched the frame around his favorite President—Andrew Jackson.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams was widely mocked after he shared a video on social media of his "morning routine," with time stamps showing his activities—only for viewers to notice that a standard black-and-white wall clock visible in part of the video showed a very different time.

The trend, which has already begun to fade, typically features sped-up clips of people going through their early rituals—complete with edits, ambient music, and timestamp overlays.
