Well, today is the day. The day we have been waiting for because it means the end of the insanity that is the 2016 Presidential Race. Honestly, I don’t know about you guys, but I feel like I can finally breathe again. No matter the outcome, we can all agree that all of the craziness we have endured as a nation over the past months are like something out of a comedy series. Actually, more specifically the hilarious political satire HBO show, Veep. This underrated comedy starring Julia-Louis Dreyfus premieres its sixth season this spring, long after the polls have closed. So before you cast your ballot today let’s take a trip down “Election Memory Lane” and relieve some of the most iconic moments from this race for the white house told by gifs from Veep.

September 26, 2016: First Presidential Debate
Quick Recap: Trump’s tax returns were called into question and Hillary’s health was mentioned. Along with a lot of interruptions using the word: “Wrong”. Trump’s misogyny was also brought into play by the mention of Alicia Macedo.
