It’s all over facebook and twitter. People claiming the theater was sold out and other people showing how few tickets were sold at specific showings.

Fox of course is promoting it but I don’t a lot about it elsewhere. As you say, the media is cowering away.

One of Trump’s first term press secretaries claimed her mother went and the theater was “standing room only” 🙄
