All the Funniest Tweets From Tuesday's CNN Democratic Debate
The debates are back! On Tuesday night, 10 Democratic presidential candidates took the stage in Detroit, Michigan, to debate, gesticulate, and attempt to squeeze their lengthy answers into very limited time frames. The candidates on stage (who included Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, John Delaney, John Hickenlooper, Tim Ryan, Steve Bullock, Marianne Williamson, Amy Klobuchar, Beto O'Rourke, and Pete Buttigieg) discussed Medicare for All, student debt, the climate crisis, reparations, gun violence, and immigration as CNN's Dana Bash, Don Lemon, and Jake Tapper moderated.
The debate was long, sure, but also included some truly great moments that Twitter made sure to capitalize on. Below, a look at some of the funniest tweets that came from Tuesday night's debate, including a very specific change to Delaney's Wikipedia page.

Marianne Williamson is making history by being the first presidential candidate to be a Kristen Wiig character from 2010.

If we're being real, it's possible that John Delaney spent two years of his life running for president so that he could become best known as an Elizabeth Warren gif. https://t.co/SwkgANVVM4

(FYI those candidates will be Kamala Harris, Joe Biden, Kirsten Gillibrand, Tulsi Gabbard, Michael Bennet, Bill de Blasio, Jay Inslee, Cory Booker, Andrew Yang, and Julián Castro.) CNN will begin Wednesday night's debate at 8 P.M., and you can find out everything you need to know about the details of the debate and how to watch it here.
