Stephen Colbert Mocks Jeb Bush Charging For Raffle Ticket To Host's 'Late Show' Premiere

Jeb Bush is raffling off his VIP ticket to the very first "Late Show With Stephen Colbert." He's charging people $3 to enter, with proceeds going to his campaign.

And Colbert is having none of it. He's staging his own raffle, also with a $3 entry fee, and all money raised is going towards the Yellow Ribbon Fund, a non-profit organization that helps injured service members and their families.

His video response has quickly gone viral on YouTube.

Bush quickly issued a reply on Twitter, teasing that he only charged $3 because he thought Amy Schumer was hosting, and that he has since lowered the raffle entry fee to $1 and made a contribution to the Yellow Ribbon Fund.
