New Hampshire
The Spectator’s deputy editor Freddy Gray is currently in New Hampshire. Here’s his report from the evening as the results of the primary came in.
3.13am Things slowing down now, folks. Thanks for reading. Story of the night is Bernie Sanders, just, and the Donald’s mind-blowing win a close second. A goofy 74 year old socialist just destroyed Hillary Clinton in New Hampshire, and is tearing the Democratic party apart. And a 69-year-old billionaire is eviscerating the Republican party. Trump looks invincible, but the Cruz campaign is not to be underrated. Hillary has had a bad night, but she may have just about saved her candidacy with a stronger than usual speech. Expect the comeback narrative to start now.
3.07am Trump talking about ‘building an incredible wall’ again. ‘You’re going to very very happy,’ is one of his most used lines. His use of superlatives is mind-numbing. But it works.
3.04am Bush speech goes hard after Trump. ‘We need someone with a servant’s heart … not somebody who thinks it’s all about himself.’
