C-SPAN Airs Jeb Bush For All Of 3 Minutes Before Cutting Away To Trump

C-SPAN was the only cable network to broadcast Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush’s speech Tuesday night after the New Hampshire primary. But it quickly cut away from the former Florida governor after just three minutes to show rival Donald Trump deliver his victory speech.

Trump came in first place in the Granite State primary. At the time that Bush took the stage, he was fighting for third place.

NBC News streamed Bush’s speech live online in full. He thanked voters in New Hampshire and vowed his campaign was going to do “really well thanks to you all.”

  1. Wait, where’s Chuck Todd boo-hooing about what a gaffe it was for Trump to cut off Bush - Oh, wait, that was HRC and last week…

  2. Too bad Jeb! has a SuperPAC. He would have been gone by now without it. I can’t believe this entitled asshole still thinks he can be President. Yoohooo dude…your last name is BUSH! Wake the fuck up.
    NO ONE LIKES BUSH! Not the last one, and by extension, there’s never gonna be a next one…not in my lifetime at least.

    They cut off Jeb to go to Trump. That really captures the dynamic of the primary race on the Republican side perfectly.
