Presidential debate expected to be the most-watched ever
The showdown Monday night between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump is expected to be the most-watched presidential debate in history.
“It’ll be the largest audience in the history of televised debates, I’m sure,” Democratic strategist Joe Trippi told The Post.
“Clearly, there’s a lot more interest. I think in just the entertainment value of Trump,” he added.
Stuart Stevens, the chief strategist for Mitt Romney’s 2008 campaign, agreed.
“I assume a huge audience,” he said.
The current record is held by the sole confrontation between Ronald Reagan and Jimmy Carter in 1980, which drew 80.6 million viewers.
