Western New York’s Best Memes From The Presidential Debate

It was the first time the current nominees for the 2024 Presidential race went head to head on the debate stage, and it resulted in a variety of opinions. 

Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump met on the debate stage for the first time in Philadelphia on Tuesday night. With a total run time of approximately 90 minutes, the two candidates advocated for why they would be the best choice for the presidency. 

At some points, it seemed that the conversation got a little derailed, which led to a bunch of quality memes to be created. 

Take a look at some of the most hilarious memes from the debate, shared by Western New Yorkers. 

Approximately 67 million people watched the Presidential Debate on Tuesday, Sept. 10. That’s a pretty significant increase in viewership from the previous Presidential Debate between the GOP nominee former President Donald Trump and President Joe Biden in June, which only brought in 51 million people, according to Axios. 

In the past, presidential candidates have participated in three general election debates while vice presidential candidates participated in one. At this time, it is unclear if the presidential candidates for the 2024 election will opt to return to the debate stage one more time.

The election will be held on Tuesday, November 5.
