Wednesday's Democratic debate in Florida merged politics with "the dress," kicking off a debate within the debate about the color of Sanders' suit.


Some people said, I will use science to show you his suit is brown.

Others were like, no way is Sanders wearing a brown suit. It's totally black.

This debate could have gone on as long as the debate over the dress, but Sanders' rapid response director came in to settle things before the suit had spawned a million memes. 

Now we all have to go back to paying attention to what the candidates are saying.

Sad emoji.
