While yesterday’s third and final U.S. Presidential debate began rather slowly, the intensity quickly picked up as Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton inevitably began picking each other apart amidst a back-and-forth that was filled with name-calling and bold accusations.
As was to be expected, the debate was rife with meme-worthy soundbites and verbal zingers. From Donald Trump inventing the word “Bigly” to Trump and Clinton arguing over which candidate was a bigger puppet, yesterday’s debate was a sad yet hilarious reminder that the current election has been the most bizarre, entertaining, and at the same time, depressing U.S. Presidential election in recent memory.

To help you cope with all of the nonsense, and because Ken Bone was MIA, we scoured Twitter in an effort to unearth some of the best reactions to last night’s debate.
First up, it’s our old buddy Shooter McGavin of Happy Gilmore fame giving it to us straight.

A few times during the debate, Trump used the word Bigly. Was he trying to say the phrase big time? Was he making a subtle reference to Big League Chew? Or, perhaps, was Trump giving a shoutout to Biggie?

Without question, one of the more memorable moments of the debate was when trumped used the phrase “bad hombres.” Politics aside, I think we can all agree that the photo below is an absolute masterpiece.

Did Trump just steal "We got some bad hombres here" from a Clint Eastwood movie? #debatenight

He might be onto something here.
He's said "big league" so many times, a subliminal message that we should be watching baseball. #debatenight #debate

A little Ace Ventura reference perhaps?

I got some serious Umbros from my 90s soccer career. Is that what Trump is attacking?

This is the first time Trump has interacted with a woman on a Las Vegas stage without trying to slip her a twenty.

Debate prediction: Closest we get to talk of climate change tonight is when Trump mentions his daughter keeps getting hotter.

And likely echoing what everyone was thinking during this excruciating third and final debate.
"Let's talk about the Constitution…" AHHH! Wait! I'm not drunk enough for this yet! #debatenight
