Jeb Bush was speaking in Hanover, NH and he ran into a rough crowd. His campaign claims New Hampshire is going to be his sweet spot the locals look unimpressed.
The New York Times wrote about it:
Yet there are signs Mr. Bush may still have some work to do. Speaking at the Hanover Inn near the Vermont border on Tuesday, Mr. Bush finished a fiery riff about protecting the country ā āI wonāt be out here blow-harding, talking a big game without backing it up,ā he said ā and was met with total silence.
āPlease clap,ā he said, sounding defeated.
The crowd laughed ā and then, finally, clapped.
Watching it is so much better. This clip made the Jimmy Fallon’s monologue last night.
I almost feel sorry for Jeb!, almost. Seriously maybe have cue cards at your next speech? If you have to beg for a response I think it’s safe to say you’re not connecting well with voters.
