10 Memorable Moments From The 2016 Presidential Campaign
With 18 months of election shenanigans coming to a close today (we hope), we’re bringing you 10 moments that made us laugh, cry, or google “How to move to Canada.”
10. Bernie Sanders’ bird
It was the one moment of pure innocence in a crazy campaign.
9. Ben Carson missed his cue
We should have known then that the GOP could not get its act together.
8. Sad Jeb Bush
Jeb Bush asking the audience to clap was a metaphor for his whole campaign.
7. The fear in Chris Christie’s eyes
He had no idea what he got himself into.
6. Hillary’s cringeworthy one-liners
We don’t know which was worse, “Trumped-up Trickle Down” or this:
5. Melania Trump’s plagiarized speech at the GOP Convention
If she were in college she would have been expelled so fast…
4. Donald Trump tried to flip the script on birtherism
It was a crowning moment of Donald Trump’s gaslighting campaign. He claimed victory for ending the racist birther movement that he started and then wrongly claimed that Hillary Clinton started it.
3. The best tweet of the election
While Donald Trump got the most attention for his Twitter account throughout the campaign, Hillary Clinton had the best tweet of the cycle.

2. Gary Johnson
He made us laugh and cry, from his Aleppo moments to whatever this is:
1. Grab ’em by the p***y
Nobody will ever forget where they were when they first watched the Access Hollywood tape watched ’round the world. It didn’t stop Trump’s campaign in its tracks, but it was a game changer.
