It’s worth pointing out that Trump seems to actually care about things like his viewership numbers and other types of ratings, and these are important measurement tools for him. While he is yet to comment on the comparisons between his speech and Obama’s, we suspect that he’s definitely paying attention to what’s being said on that front.
Some have argued that this sensitivity that he’s displayed could make him more vulnerable in the long run, further adding to the list of reasons to be worried about his position of power. However, Trump also doesn’t seem to care too deeply about the kinds of things being said about him, so it’s hard to say if he’ll really be too affected by that.
Hopefully his presidency is going to proceed without any incidents, and we aren’t going to report on any nasty developments soon, but then again, that’s what most people are saying.
There definitely seem to be more people worried that the opposite might happen compared to previous US presidents however, and that by itself is an alarming trend. We’ll keep you updated on any new developments on that front, although at this rate it looks like Trump’s statements fly faster than most other types of information. Interestingly enough, some of those paying the most attention to him right now seem to be his biggest opponents, although that shouldn’t be too surprising to anyone familiar with politics.
