The Republican candidates on Thursday night’s stage may have all been fighting for attention, but who really stole the show (at least on Twitter) was a presidential candidate from the opposite party.

Bernie Sanders had the most retweeted presidential candidate tweet during the debate, according to Twitter Friday afternoon.

“Most-retweeted presidential candidate Tweet of #GOPDebate came from Democrat @BernieSanders,” Twitter’s government tracking arm tweeted.

Sanders’ tweet, which read “It’s over. Not one word about economic inequality, climate change, Citizens United or student debt. That’s why the Rs are so out of touch,” had been retweeted nearly 22,000 times as of Friday afternoon.
