The Memes And Tweets That Won Last Night's Democratic Party Presidential Debate

What else can one expect when there is a three-hour event on television? Last night the Democratic Party held its third presidential primary debate in Houston and as one can imagine, a lot of drama happened on stage. Below are some of the funniest reactions captured on Twitter to the 10 candidates left in the primary race.

First up, we had loads of people wondering what was going on with Joe Biden's performance, especially when he brought up record players when asked about the history of segregation and racism in the United States.
