Watching Donald Trump, Ben Carson, Jeb Bush and the rest of the Republican presidential hopefuls duke it out Wednesday will be difficult without a cable subscription, as there won’t be a free online stream of Wednesday’s GOP debate.
CNBC, host of the third Republican debate, will make a stream available on CNBC.com and on the network’s mobile apps — but a cable login will be required to tune in.
The network’s coverage begins at 5 p.m. ET. The undercard debate is up first, featuring the lowest-polling candidates. It kicks off at 6 p.m. ET with candidates Rick Santorum, Bobby Jindal, George Pataki and Lindsey Graham. At 8 p.m. ET, ten candidates will take the stage in Colorado for the main debate: Trump, Carson, Bush, Carly Fiorina, Marco Rubio, John Kasich, Chris Christie, Mike Huckabee, Ted Cruz and Rand Paul.
