Our favorite tweeters weighed in on Hillary Clinton's historic speech at the Democratic National Convention.
Hillary Clinton closed out the Democratic National Convention with an inclusive, progressive, warm, and sometimes funny speech. Her speech was filled with inspiring quotes, beautiful promises, jabs at Trump, and balloons. So many balloons. It offered a lot less easy fodder for Twitter's comedians than Trump's speech did at the end of the Republican National Convention last week, but luckily, this is a talented bunch. Here are the tweets that went out during and after Hillary's speech that had us rolling in the (political) aisles.
Hillary Clinton and Science, BFFs!!!
Bill loves those balloons.
\u201cBILL! God, he was made for GIFs.\u201d— Allison Rockey (@Allison Rockey) 1469763544

\u201cFOR THE CHEAP SEATS: SYSTEMIC RACISM WAS ACKNOWLEDGED AT A NATIONAL NOMINATING CONVENTION AS A SERIOUS PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED.\u201d— Natasha Rothwell (@Natasha Rothwell) 1469763637
We cannot fault her for this.
It must feel amazing to be quoted by the future president of the United States.
\u201c\ud83d\ude33\n\ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8\nI'm with her.\n#AndShesBeenListeningToDiscTwo!\u201d— Lin-Manuel Miranda (@Lin-Manuel Miranda) 1469763281
But I only watch Ben Affleck interviews ironically!
We are already claiming Hillary's funniest moment for our team.
Comedian Cameron Esposito didn't even worry about jokes; she just got all inspirational.
\u201cWe're more equal than we've ever been which means we're stronger than we've ever been. \n\nAnd that's good: we have so much more work to do.\u201d— Cameron Esposito (@Cameron Esposito) 1469764704
I mean, wouldn't you pay to see that, though?
\u201cThey should charge money for the debates. I'm not even kidding. Hillary will devour this idiot like a Saw trap.\u201d— Scott Weinberg (@Scott Weinberg) 1469766942
I wish we could fast-forward to this moment.
Trump's biggest debate fear is that @HillaryClinton will make up an acronym for a non-existant agency & DJT will respond thinking it's real

We enjoy watching this gif as much as Hillary enjoys watching fireworks.
\u201cHillary's reaction to fireworks is everything, America. https://t.co/PxP3q78SwQ #DemsinPhilly\u201d— Mashable (@Mashable) 1469765433
Our Hillary senses are tingling!
Even conservative tweeters are starting to catch on.
\u201cWell done, @realDonaldTrump. You made Democrats a party of sunny patriotism and values. \n\nYou sure @billclinton didn't ask you to run?\u201d— Ron Fournier (@Ron Fournier) 1469756933
As Miranda said, "I want to enjoy my success, not apologize for it."
\u201cGod damn, Hillary makes me proud to identify as a Miranda.\u201d— Louis Virtel (@Louis Virtel) 1469761389
Hopefully Hillary's enjoying hers tonight after a phenomenal convention.
