Anderson Cooper's interview with Stormy Daniels propelled "60 Minutes" to its highest-rated episode in 10 years.
The CBS newsmagazine averaged 22.1 million viewers for Sunday's show, according to Nielsen, which is more than twice as many viewers than a typical edition of the show.
(The preliminary viewer number was 21.3 million, but the total ticked up a bit when same-day DVR viewership was factored in.)

(25,220 posts)after all - he does make everything about him. So if it wasn't for him - CBS wouldn't have had such high ratings. We'll we see that in a tweet?

(58,724 posts)I wish people were more interested in topics like, for example, opioid abuse than Stormy Daniels, but I understand that things don't work that way.

(14,113 posts)* Reprehensible conduct and behavior by someone who currently resides in our White House.
* Reprehensible enough that he wants to keep it a secret.
* Reprehensible enough that he is willing to have his goons threaten any one who would reveal this conduct and behavior.
* Reprehensible enough that he is willing to pay out large sums of money to buy someone's silence.
* Reprehensible enough that he lies to the public that the sexual affair ever happened because if the truth and reality came out it could prove very awkward and damaging.
* Reprehensible enough that a super secret NDA was engineered to cover any foot prints that would reveal this conduct or behavior.
* Reprehensible enough that the perpetrator (tRdump) has attempted to block the CBC - 60 Minute segment from broadcasting the Stormy details.
* Reprehensible enough that agents of tRdump are suing Stormy for $20 million for revealing details of an affair tRdump says never happened.
------------------------------
If nothing else the above proves the man currently occupying the White House is highly susceptible to being blackmailed.
That is a dangerous place for the national security of this country.
This reprehensible conduct and behavior is likely the same type of highly embarrassing kompromat Russia/Putin holds over and is using against tRdump while forcing him to act in Russia's best interests rather than the best interests of the United States of America.
This tRdump/Stormy tryst episode, the Playboy Bunny tryst episode, and the other multiple trysts of matrimonial infidelities, sexual harassment, and other inappropriate sexual behaviors are not nothing burgers. They could well be the key the why, the how, the where of the kompromat tRdump gave to Putin on a silver platter and how Putin uses this insane/madman sexual behavior to exploit tRump and exploit AMERICA because of this kompromat.
TRdump is a man of many human weaknesses he is ripe and susceptible to being controlled as a puppet. This is likely why Putin has our pResident by the balls and has total control over him. If tRdump steps out of line Putin squeezes his testicles. Then there is the question of financial kompromat - Putin likely can put the squeeze on tRdump's wallet and send his financial well being into turmoil so he crashes and burns.
Anyone who calls this a nothing burgers has failed critical thinking - forensic crime scene - course study 101.
This could be the main key and component to bringing tRdump down and out of the people's White House and hopefully locked up in jail. The more fronts we approach and attack from the sooner we get rid of this criminal thug masquarading as America's President.

(13,485 posts)Not to the whole of Trump's lack of character and what that means. The information stated could be found without the feeding frenzy that supports a media zoo and thus the kind of advertizing that benifits that zoo.
I still say why. I know the whole story without drooling over a few minutes notice.
