I don't understand what Clinton said at the end of the debate...

"May the farce be with you."
To a round of applause.
WTF was she referring to? Is she talking about her positions? Is she talking about the entire election?
Someone help me understand.

So as well as allowing Clinton to answer each and every question, and others not so much, they wrote her script.
I get it now.
The media are colluding as well.
