The Democratic National Convention has been like one long night around a campfire singing Kumbaya. In other words — majorly ripe for spoofing.

On Wednesday, we were treated to “Cagney & Lacey” (Tyne Daly and Sharon Gless) in a lineup of some 30 stars and other people who passed the microphone down the line, singing Burt Bacharach’s “What the World Needs Now.” The audience held hands and swayed.

After that, Vice President Joe Biden took us back to the 1950s with his cries of “malarkey” about everything. And folksy Tim Kaine spoke Spanish. A lot.

It’s all been fodder for mocking, even by liberal late-night hosts. Here are some highlights:

Fight Song:
Elizabeth Banks engineered a video featuring stars (and some real people) singing an a cappella version of “Fight Song” as a tribute to Hillary.

Here’s the original:

And here’s Stephen Colbert (who referred to Hillary as “President Wonder Bread” the other night) and John Oliver, mocking it:

Tim Kaine tweets:
As Kaine addressed the crowd, Twitter lit up with jokes about his “polite dad” persona. And they were brutal.

On Bill:
Bill Clinton’s opening line — “In 1971, I met a girl…” — ticked off feminists and resonated with no one under 70, not to mention prompting endless jokes about how many “girls” followed after that.

And James Corden cracked: “On a night when the first woman is nominated to take the highest office in the land, what you want is for her husband to take 45 minutes mansplaining why you should vote for her.”

On emails:
Jimmy Fallon, on NBC’s “Tonight Show,” said: “People were even more shocked to find out there were 20,000 emails Hillary hadn’t deleted yet. ”

“At this point,” Seth Meyers said on NBC’s “Late Night,” said, “emails are to Hillary what snakes were to Indiana Jones.”

And TBS’ Conan O’Brien said, “To divert attention from leaked DNC emails and other negative press, Hillary is expected to begin her speech with the rousing first line, ‘Hey, look, there’s a Pokémon!'”

On Bernie:
“Saturday Night Live” had a special “Weekend Update” segment on Wednesday to poke fun of the crying Sanders loyalists.

“There’s been so much passion and enthusiasm here,” said co-host Colin Jost. “Only problem was, most of it was for the guy who lost.”
