The tally for Trump – 30.6 million viewers on 12 broadcast and cable networks that aired live coverage from about 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. EST – surpassed the TV audiences measured for his two most recent Republican predecessors – both inaugurations of George W. Bush and the one of his father, George H.W. Bush.

Trump was only beat by Obama’s and Reagan’s first inaugurals:

Only Reagan drew a bigger U.S. TV inauguration audience, with nearly 42 million viewers tuning in to see the California Republican sworn in for his first term in 1981. Just 25 million watched Reagan take his second oath of office four years later.

Trump’s total was greater than both swearing-ins of Democrat Bill Clinton – 29.7 million and 21.6 million – and the second inauguration of Obama, who drew an average audience of over 20.5 million in 2013, Nielsen said.

Like some reliable media, Reuters or Fox news (the latter not Pro Obama as you know)?

yeah, why that competition? I thought the main goal was making America great again?

maybe Trump and his staff were afraid of looking as stupid as Hitler in Paris- no crowds cheering at him http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S6NL4C4JKYs

There are two faces to the issue. One is the illness itself, which makes him tweet yet another picture, this time framed, today, out of the obsession of having less people coming at the inauguration, again becoming everyone's laughingstock and everyone's panic attack.

For the record, Spicer's and Conway's comments were about attending "in person", the PHOTOS, not online ratings/views
http://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/jan/22/trump-inaugurati on-crowd-sean-spicers-claims-versus-the-evidence

The administration contested the PHOTOS, starting at the CIA Memorial Wall, aerial photos one can also see as time lapse here, the images I saw myself during the inauguration, live, showing app 1/3 of 2009 inauguration crowd was present, the many empty stands on the way and how the family was in and out of car for lack of crowds + areas with protests. In other words, Orwell.

The other face of the issue is the diversion , the inauguration crowds scandal was the diversion for the Women's March, and today's "illegal votes scandal" was the diversion for the pipelines (they both stole the face of these events).

Whatching this video of Hitler going through the city of Paris and to the parliament, I realise how this period must have felt like a jump in the future, in progress. Let me explain, before WW2 France was still numbed by WW1, among the population, the men had been mobilised and many dead, or disabled (called broken face). France causualties (dead, not disabled) amounted to 1 350 000 of which 200 000 civilians. But at this time soldiers were actually civilians dressed as soldiers every man had been called to fight). It represent 4.3% of the french population dead. ( Germany and Russia 2 000 000 casualties each, the Austria-Hungary empire same as France)

Many trenches were in France, and the horror of the living conditions was known by the population. It wasn't in irak if you know what I mean.

WWI was an industrialised war fought by unprepared civilians. Germany wanted a revenge and Hitler rose to power when economic crisis of 29 made life terribly difficult. France was not prepared nor preparing for an second assault.

Anyway, watching this video, I feel a taste of modernity, Hitler wasn't a "has been" , on the contrary, he was percieved as the modernity, the guy that would bring some fresh air. Not like a crazy mofo that would send humanity to its worst taste of hell, no, not at all. that is an anachronic point of view. We know the concentration camp and the death camp... when he visited Paris, the german people saw a cool man visiting paris.

What nonsense you write!?!

i asked you to name a reliable source other than a site full of conspiracy bullsh*t. I even deliberately named FOX news- you once mentioned them positively, didn't you?!

So where are the links to back-up your statement?

i used the same level as you to get your attention; you believe in that sort of political sites, i think you do since you post them all the time, and so i posted one.

Especially after this :

http://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/823937936056008704

He posted a fake photo with the wrong date to justify the 'immense' crowd at his inauguration. He continued to dig a hole for himself as long as 5 days after the ceremony. He doesn't want to be rescued, that's for sure.
