You do realize how this just doesn’t follow logically right? I don’t think I’ve ever once watched the Macy’s day parade ever. I sure as hell don’t think that most Americans watch it. That doesn’t mean that the Macy’s day parade is a failure. The person you’re talking to is asking for any sort of source. Only one person in this thread has even bothered to discuss this properly with that person. The truth of the matter is that you need factual numbers to discuss this. You can’t go off of feelings or Twitter replies or comments in overwhelmingly democratic communities. You need an actual source with factual numbers. Until there is something like that then it’s pointless discussing whether the parade was a failure or not.
You (and apparently 11 others) have completely misread my comment. I explicitly said "That doesn’t mean that the Macy’s day parade is a failure. Macy's Day Parade is clearly absolutely a success. And guess what, there's metrics to back it up. My point is that just because I do not watch it doesn't mean that it's not a success. There are zero metrics provided by Aeao nor by the article to substantiate any sort of conclusion about trump's parade one way or the other. Until those statistics come out, anything anyone says about the failure or success of the event is just spreading misinformation.
I've offered proof you haven't been able to articulate what proof you want.
