Trump really values his TV ratings and crowd sizes. This is why he went apoplectic when even the National Park Service documented that Obama’s crowd was bigger.
Well, this year Trump’s crowd will be tiny. Due to a forecast of moderate Greenland-like weather, the inauguration is being moved inside the Capitol. (Rather than being a coward, Bernie would just have put on mittens and a hat.)
How are ratings determined? They count the number of TVs on and what they are tuned to.
Here is how to tank Trump’s TV ratings: Leave your TV on, just switch it to any channel that is NOT broadcasting his inauguration. National Geographic or even the Food Channel will do. Go for a walk, wash your hair, take a nap, do your daily commute and go to work if you have to, make love to your partner if you want – but just leave your TV on.
