On YouTube, the Trump White House channel has 3.3 million subscribers.

Few of them watched Trump welcome the Chinese president today on Trump TV. At the high point, 126,000 tuned in.

Four hours later, about 400 people are taking a look.

Other clips on Trump TV range from most under 100,000 to one — Trump giving President Xi a tour of Marine One — to over 600,000.

People worried about Trump TV: The Essentials Station on YouTube. They needn’t have bothered. In fact, Trump TV is the right place for Trump fans to watch him if they’re interested.

U2’s new song is called “Silencio.” The silence we’re hearing in mainstream media is the networks ignoring Trump because of his media ban. It’s nirvana. It would be great if it all continued. No more embarrassing Oval Office press conferences. It was painful watching foreign leaders stifle guffaws during Trump’s rants. Or seeing him pick fights with the press in the room. Do you miss it? I don’t.
