Showing Original Post only (View all)Biden ad about the world laughing at Trump has 10 MILLION VIEWS in 24 hours [View all]
Last edited Thu Dec 5, 2019, 09:36 PM - Edit history (4)
I'm editing the subject line of this OP for a final time, just after 7:30 CDT. The ad isn't quite to 10 million views -- it was at 9.85 million when I checked it a few minutes ago.But it also hasn't quite reached the 24-hour mark since it was tweeted, and it's obvious it will hit 10 million within minutes.
I saw a tweet a couple of hours after the ad was posted predicting it would get 10 million views overnight. That wasn't likely to happen overnight, with fewer people online then, but it reached that number in a day.
I just edited the subject line. It had read 700,000 views, but it's up to a million about 20 minutes after this was first posted.
Just edited the subject line again, now that it's at 1.5 million views[
Editing again now that it's at 2 million views. 1.3 million views more than when I posted this OP less than two hours ago.
And I'm editing the next morning, after the ad had more than 4 millions additional views overnight.
7 million now...so there have been over 700,000 additional views in the last hour and a half.
I hadn't checked the number of views till I saw someone on Twitter predict the ad will probably get 10 million view tonight.
The ad was tweeted less than two hours ago.
The Biden campaign waited till Air Force One landed at Andrews to post it, according to what journalists are tweeting.

Joe Biden knows precisely how to deal with a cowardly bully like Trump!

Great Ad--it's not about Joe, it's about the truth and it's at about 2.5 million hits and rising!
