Trump appeared Wednesday on the late-night TV show, drawing nearly 5 million viewers, including 744,000 in the key 25-54 age demographic, according to Nielsen data shared with the Washington Examiner.

While speaking with Fox News host Greg Gutfeld and his guests, Trump lamented that he did not “go after” ABC News moderators David Muir and Linsey Davis during his Sept. 10 debate against Vice President Kamala Harris, noting that he instead tried to be “elegant.”

“I think my only regret is that I wanted to be elegant, and I didn’t want to go after the anchors,” Trump said. “I wish I did, in a way.”

While appearing on Gutfeld!, Trump also joked about the second assassination attempt against him, in which a gunman nearly had a shot at the former president while he was playing golf.

“I always said golf is a very dangerous game,” Trump cracked.

Gutfeld!’s Wednesday viewership topped all other cable and broadcast prime-time shows that day, defeating the season debuts of CBS’s Survivor with 4.7 million viewers and ABC’s The Golden Bachelorette with 2.8 million.

Trump’s appearance also helped Gutfeld! best the overall average viewership of its late-night TV competition last week, averaging 3.2 million viewers in comparison to CBS’s The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, which had 1.9 million viewers, ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live!, which got 1.6 million, and NBC’s The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, which drew 1 million.

Last week’s ratings follow Gutfeld! averaging 2.1 million viewers to lead all late-night talk shows throughout the second quarter. It also drew an average of 295,000 viewers in the 25-54 age demographic, which topped all cable news programs.

Gutfeld!’s second-quarter viewership quadrupled that of The Daily Show and more than doubled its 146,000 in the 25-54 key demographic even after Jon Stewart’s return as a part-time host.
