Views of Trump's Sit-Down with Carlson Surpass 150M

Former President Donald Trump's interview with Tucker Carlson on X, published on August 24, 2023, received over 150 million reported views on the platform. However, the article explains that this view count metric used by X doesn't necessarily equate to the number of unique users who watched or viewed the full interview video. The view count refers to the number of users who saw the post about the interview on X, regardless of whether they watched the video or followed Tucker Carlson. Engagement with the post, such as shares and likes, was significantly lower than the reported view count. Ratings for the Republican primary debate Trump skipped have not been released to compare audience size.
