The Democratic Debate Just Crushed Donald Trump's Favorite Bragging Point

The Democratic Debate Just Crushed Donald Trump's Favorite Bragging Point
Donald Trump and political pundits alike predicted that the first Democratic debate would tank with audiences, but the initial numbers show otherwise.

According to CNN, which live-streamed last night's event as well as the second Republican showdown back in September, the Dems scored 980,000 concurrent live streams, while the Republican debate peaked at 921,000 streams.

Democratic debate may have had a somewhat younger audience.
