Bernie Sanders, American politician, and former presidential candidate attended Joe Biden’s inauguration on Wednesday. It was a historical day for all Americans as they welcomed a new president. Also, Kamala Harris became the first-ever Black, Asian, and female vice-president of the United States.
However, it went down as one of the greatest days in meme history as well, thanks to Bernie Sanders. The Vermont Senator attended the ceremony wearing a face mask, a parka jacket, and recycled woolen mittens.
It didn’t take long for the internet to appreciate Bernie’s fashion and turn it into a meme. Thus, Bernie trended on Twitter with people showing off their creativity using his picture everywhere.
Here are some of the best Bernie Sanders memes.
Crazy how @MichelleObama pulled up extra swanky to the inauguration and all everybody is talking about is @BernieSanders

Sanders is well aware that he’s become a meme once again. He looks like a serious guy, nevertheless, he’s accepting of the fact that the world is having fun sharing his picture around. He talked to Seth Meyers about the memes in an interview and laughed it off.
