Trump always obsesses over ratings
1. The debate was the highest rated show - "CBS' coverage had the evening's largest total audience by a wide margin"
2. CBS News' debate coverage averaged 13.02 million viewers, well ahead of the preliminary 10 million figure for NBC's debate Feb. 19.
3. The comparable viewership for CBS debate in 2016: 8.5 Million, so roughly 5 million more this cycle
4. Last night to the best night in 2016 Dem primaries: 13.02 last night versus 15.8, but that was the FIRST debate of the primaries, this was the 10th. The next best ion 2016 was 10.2 million on NBC, so last night was a big night by almost any measure.
5. Still below the highest rated Trump debate of 2016, which had 16.8 million
So, is that Bernie-mania or is it Trump-hate? Only time will tell, but either way
