33 of the funniest memes and jokes from the first Democratic debate

The first night of the Democratic debate proved to be quite the event as the first 10 candidates put their cases forward for why they should be the one to face Donald Trump in the 2020 US election.

The biggest talking point of the night was the moment where Beto O'Rourke decided to answer a question in Spanish for no reason whatsoever and perplexed just about everyone.

NBC, the network broadcasting the debate, experienced technical difficulties during the event which caused the mic worn by the candidates to stop working and thus produced even more memes.

Tim Ryan's face literally told a thousand stories.

Elizabeth Warren had no chill...

Some of the Democrats reminded them of famous faces from pop culture history.

Tulsi Gabbard's controversial comments inspired the wrong sort of memes.

People weren't impressed by how long it took for the subject of climate change to be mentioned.

Needless to say, Trump wasn't impressed by what he saw.
