Only 7.85 million viewers tuned in to ABC to watch the Democrat’s trash and lie about Donald Trump.
The New York Daily News reported:

It was live on Saturday night but dead in the TV ratings.

The third 2016 Democratic debate got the lowest TV ratings of any debate this cycle, ratings data released Monday showed.

About 7.85 million viewers tuned into the prime-time debate between Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders and Martin O’Malley, Nielsen data showed, noticeably below all of the other Democratic and Republican debates this year.

The viewership for the two-hour debate — held on the Saturday night before Christmas and moderated and televised by ABC — had been expected to be low, although the viewership was still higher than some expected, and the program was the most-watched program, by total viewers, on any major network on Saturday night.

The previous Democratic debate on Nov. 14 in Nevada, which was also held on a Saturday night, drew 8.5 million viewers…

The three most viewed Republican debates, by comparison, have drawn 25 million, 23 million and 18 million viewers, mostly because of the presence of bombastic front-runner and former reality TV star Donald Trump.
