Donald Trump loves to talk about the size of his audience, so Democratic rival Kamala Harris rubbed it in after she trounced him in the ratings on Fox News this week.
The vice president’s rapid response team shared that more than 7 million people watched her interview with Fox News anchor Bret Baier on Wednesday, compared to the 3 million who tuned in to the Republican nominee’s Fox News town hall with Harris Faulkner earlier in the day.
Harris’ campaign trumpeted the triumph on X (formerly Twitter) Thursday, showing a side-by-side of the numbers. “We just posted this on Truth Social,” the caption read.
Granted, the evening time slot and novelty of Harris’ appearance on the conservative channel were advantages. As was the potential for tension and controversy, which was fulfilled. But the vice president and her campaign were bound to celebrate a win in a sensitive spot for the former president.
Trump notoriously bragged in 2020 that the ratings of his press conferences were as big as “The Bachelor” finale as the pandemic death toll surged. His obsession continues to this day.
A few people on X joined Harris in a victory lap.
