Politico reported that Danny Diaz, campaign manager for Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush, confronted a CNBC producer Wednesday as the third GOP debate was still being broadcast.
The exchange was described as a “heated confrontation,” according to Politico, citing two unnamed sources.
One of the sources told the publication that Diaz was discussing the time amounted to Bush.
NPR Politics tweeted the time allotments, which showed Bush at the bottom, near the end of the debate:

Bush did basically disappear tonight, he is not wrong.
But he was having a horrible night anyway. I mean, when he finally does get a question, he decides to brag about his fantasy football team??
The Houston confab can’t correct the reality that JEB is a horrible politician. The death spiral continues.
Of course Bush is near the bottom, look at his poll numbers.
Damn it! His parents are paying for that microphone.
Given ¡Je!'s (“B” removed to achieve 40% cost reduction) penchant for committing unforced errors and general asshattery:
Limited time = Maximum protection.
And after Bush’s people were done complaining, Jim Webb really tore 'em a new one.
