What do memes about eating cats and misinformation about “after birth” abortions have in common? They both were actual talking points during the presidential debate held on Sept. 10. Last night Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump faced off for the first time in what may be their only debate before Election Day — and it was a doozy. From foreign policy and fracking to Jan 6 and immigration, the presidential nominees never seemed to learn that their mics were muted.
While some took the moment to stock up on snacks and binge like a reality TV reunion, others refused to watch live knowing it would induce a panic attack or worse. And with live tweeting, who needs to torment themselves with watching a tall Oompa-Loompa lie to the American public? Not me! That’s why I’ve gathered the funniest and most informative viral memes about the debate to catch you up on what you might’ve missed.

Trump On Abortion: “A Leader On Fertilization”
Trump wouldn’t answer if he’d sign national abortion plan but claimed he’d be a “a leader on fertilization,” which has to be the weirdest way to talk about IVF. He also repeated that Democrats support “after birth” abortions, which Moderator Linsey Davis had to clarify: “There is no state where it is legal to kill a baby after birth.” A learning moment!
Trump On Immigration: Eating Pets And Forced Gender Reassignment Surgery
On immigration, Trump repeated his running mate Sen. JD Vance’s false claims about immigrants stealing pets in Ohio… and then eating them. Then went on to claim that the VP “wants to do transgender operations on illegal aliens who are in prison.”
Trump Apparently Has A “Concept Of A Plan”
