Dear Mr. President, Family Portrait, Stupid Girls and Get The Party Started disagree
No shade but none of those had any impact. You could possibly argue Stupid Girls but would you really call people bandwagonning on a song dissing the likes of Paris Hilton cultural impact?? The most impactful thing she did last decade was Lady Marmalade.

Dear Mr President made headlines across the world, when I'm Not Dead was released. It made headlines again when P!nk got booed performing it near Washington DC. Every talked about how ballsy the song was. It went on to sell a million copies WW without being released in major markets. To this day, P!nk is asked about that song in every interview she does. Bette Midler structured her speech around that song when presented the Human Rights Award to Pink. There's a live performance of that song, where people are crying in the audience.
Stupid Girls also made news around the world. A very recent example of it's impact is when CNN played it before a story on Sarah Palin, whose policies P!nk has very openly condemned. Oprah talked to P!nk about that song for a whole hour on her show.
Family Portrait. Under 'Cultural Impact' on Wikipedia: "According to Pink's father, James Moore Jr., during an E! Entertainment's E! True Hollywood Story, this song has been unofficially named the national anthem for young kids who have been through the harsh effects of divorce of their parents: "I have got letters from parents thanking us from this song." The song, which she wrote and composed in collaboration with Scott Storch, was still going strong as of late April of 2012, with millions of hits on YouTube and millions of albums sold from Missundaztood. "It took me a while to listen to 'Family Portrait' without getting emotional," Pink's mother told E! True Hollywood Story. Although the song addresses how Pink struggled through her parents's divorce, it is also addressed to kids, to encourage them to talk with their parents about how they feel about their divorce."
This was also really the first time a pop girl had written such a personal song in the 2000s. After that, a lot people started doing similar stuff.
It's so mind-boggling when ATRL claims that P!nk has had no cultural Impact; while a song like say..Umbrella has.
This reviewer sums it up perfectly..."If, for a brief moment around the turn of the millenium, Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, and yes, Jessica Simpson were supposed to be our Blonde Pop Holy Trinity, Pink was Mary Magdalene, staring sarcastically out at the world over her aviator sunglasses."

I don't want my opinion to come off as trolling so I wont get into it extensively. None of P!nk's music has gotten widespread worldwide attention, especially not more than Lady Marmalade.
And to answer the thread's question dropping from 13 million to 3.5 million is exactly consistent. She had a bigger decline than all her peers. Britney, Beyonce & Xtina all had more steady decline. I'd even go as far to say Kelly Clarkson was more consistent last decade.

Widespread attention = Popularity =/= Impact.
And even So What received more 'attention' than Lady Marmalade. Mainly due to Carey, her ex-husband at that time, who the song was about, being in the music video.
And that's actually the point. P!nk has not gone into decline like the other girls.
5M-> 14M-> 3.5M -> 6.5M-> 7M.
Definitely one of the most consistent of the 2000s. But wasn't Try This a flop or at least an underperformance, especially after her huge second album?
But since then she's been consistent, and I feel like she'll continue to have succes for a long time.

+1. Still selling so much after so many years, and now it's harder to sell albums

Educate them
And P!nk is also highly regarded for 'breaking the pop star mold'

And Beyonce was had every album released in the 2000s sell at least 6 million which is 3 and 5-6 if you include DC.
You should include her most recent album too, it's only fair.

And '4' was a lower point than Try This in terms of albums, singles AND tour. So
Regardless of what the OP says the title says 2000s not 2000s and 2010s. And even if you do include 4, Bey's one underperformance was her latest album. P!nk's underperformance was less than 5 years after her debut and coming off of a massive era. That doesn't scream consistency.
And P!nk's last studio album came out the same year as IASF, why would we be talking about the 2010s anyway?? Just for the sake of bringing up 4 when P!nk's next album could do worse.

If anything that makes Bey's underperformance look better.

You seriously don't know what the 2000s mean?

It does not, actually. If album sales have dropped since 2003; single sales have increased even more rapidly. At least Trouble went Top 10 on the United World Chart Did any single from '4'? Nope.
And P!nk also had a moderately successful tour across Europe with 'Try This'.
