Stephen Colbert gleefully mocks the Democratic candidates after their third debate
Watch Next

It's a tough job making fun of the Democratic candidates when there are so damn many of them, but someone's got to do it.

Luckily, Stephen Colbert is more than up to the task. In his monologue above following the third Democratic debate on Thursday, The Late Show host takes shots at each candidate in turn -- from Andrew Yang's contradictory opening remarks to Joe Biden's latest gaffes.

His favourite thing to focus on, though? Definitely Bernie Sanders' voice. He's really got that impression nailed.

"So in the end, what did we get?" concludes Colbert at the end of the clip. "10 candidates, four moderators, three hours, two languages... and hopefully one person who can beat Donald Trump."
