    The first debate between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump provided the opportunity for the internet to meme the political process.

    The 90-minuet face off in Philadelphia was a decisive win for Harris as Trump dodged questions, had multiple rambling answers , and embraced the Jan. 6 insurrection and election denialism.

    In the most impactful result of the debate Taylor Swift endorsed Kamala Harris on her Instagram page moments after it ended.

    The internet had a field day with the affair, poking fun at multiple moments in the debate.

    Here are some of the best memes from the first Harris-Trump debate.

    False dog story makes way into debate, memes

    During Tuesday’s presidential debate, former President Donald Trump promoted the falsehood that migrants in Springfield, Ohio, are eating people’s pets.

    “In Springfield, they’re eating the dogs. The people that came in, they’re eating the cats. They’re eating... they’re eating the pets of the people that live there,” he said.

    Springfield city officials have dismissed these accounts as untrue and that they have not received any credible reports of these claims. Springfield police also told a local news outlet they have received no reports of pets being stolen and eaten.
